So, let’s get started with today’s teaching.

How to Become a Professional Self-Published Author and Earn $50,000+ Annually Using Your Story and Expertise

In today’s virtual economy, women can secure new opportunities using the written and spoken word.

In a previous lesson, I taught you about the numerous positions available to women like you today; and with the right training, you can secure these higher-paying jobs so you and your family prosper.

In today’s teaching, our focus is on authorship and the power of the self-publishing industry.

At one time, to become a professional author, a woman had to secure a lucrative publishing deal with a reputable company. This opportunity came only to a select few, which left many talented authors on the sidelines.

But around 1979, self-publishing became a more popular means of production, which put power back into the hands of individual writers.

Today, creative women like you can explore this field as a viable career option.

However, to be most successful, you must learn to treat your authorship as a business, a creative business.

And today’s lesson will get you started.

Steps to Become a Successful Self-Published Author

In 2011, I launched my new career as a freelance writer and editor for self-published authors.

In 2012, I self-published my first memoir, Fear, Faith, and Patience, which chronicled my experience in the public school system.

My work in the self-publishing industry proved most effective and profitable to me at the time, because I needed employment that allowed me to use my talents while working as a stay-at-home mother.

By 2018, my self-published works hit the mainstream conservative space. And since that time, I’ve devoted my expertise to helping other Conservative political leaders launch their book products that help expand their platforms.

When working with my clients, I give each one the same formula for producing a successful book.

1. Step 1: I ask my clients to tell me the vision for their platform and how they see their book as a byproduct of that vision. This is the time when I ask them to consider their readership and the people God called them to empower.

2. Step 2: My clients and I develop their creative action plan. This process includes conducting relevant research for their book’s main topic.

3. Step 3: My clients and I develop a basic outline or overview of the manuscript’s work, starting with the story that triggered their experience and led them to the place they are today. My clients know me best for asking them, “What is the story that nearly killed you?” That story becomes the catalyst for their work and essentially attracts the ideal reader who will be most empowered by their book.

4. Step 4: My clients construct their Introduction, which includes that life-changing story and the lessons the reader will glean from their book.

5. Step 5: My clients begin constructing their chapters based on the coaching sessions we have. For example, one client is writing a book about her experience after divorce. Each chapter serves as a unique, empowering lesson that helps her readers — fellow women — overcome challenges that hinder their spiritual and financial progress.

6. Step 6: Once my clients have completed their manuscript, I perform content edits on the book to ensure the material is good for the reader.

7. Step 7: Once the content edits are completed, the manuscript moves to the proofreader, who will ensure there are no grammatical errors.

8. Step 8: Once the proofreading is done, my publishing team formats the manuscript so it can be printed or sold as an e-book.

9. Step 9: Once the layout is completed, my clients receive their final manuscript, which they can upload on their Amazon KDP account or their branded website.

10. Step 10: Once the book is completed, my clients present it to their audience, membership, or new market for sale and distribution.

Constructing the book is only 10% of the real work, however.

What you do with your product matters most. In other words, your book can be the catalyst for a speaking engagement. It can serve as a tool to help boost your resume. It can serve as a training manual for companies looking for your expertise.

In my case, my self-published books opened the door for me to become the #1 strategist in the conservative political space who helps deliver election wins using effective Black Outreach. For candidates running at the state or national level, they will hire my consultation and training services to help them build a compelling communications system while my Movement performs outreach services on their campaign’s behalf.

Because I am the only expert in the conservative space with this premium offering, I charge a premium rate. And my political books coupled with my public deliverables prove my strategies work.

There are other ways I build wealth using my self-published books, including generating donations for The Foundation’s women’s ministry. My products continue to be best-sellers because I offer lifetime access to them in exchange for my Donors’ contributions towards our work.

And you can create your own self-published books today that will help you build wealth long-term.

If you are interested in launching a career as a self-published author, don’t hesitate to begin your journey now.

To get started, you will need the right training, which I provide to my clients via my program, The Write Conservative Book Publishing School. This 4-week online training course will walk you through the steps necessary to successful write and publish your book in 30 days.

Over the years, my clients have become best-selling authors and award-winning coaches; and their works have landed them on national speaking platforms that reach millions.

If you believe you have a story to tell or you possess expert knowledge that will revolutionize an industry, then put your ideas in book format.

It will completely change your life.

I guarantee it!

Until next time, Beloved, be blessed.

And as always, let’s grow together!
