Business owners, coaches, consultants, speakers and experts who want to write a book that grows their business, brings them clients and builds their authority.

No. You need to know your subject. Most of my number 1 bestselling authors didn't see themselves as writers when they started. A clear plan, a structure and the right support do the rest.

It depends on your time and your plan. Writing 300 words a day, five days a week, adds up to around 30,000 words in about 20 weeks, which is a full first draft of a short business book. The Busy Expert's Writing Plan shows you how.

It depends on what you want your book to do for your business. Traditional publishing usually means selling your rights and a longer wait. Self-publishing and done for you publishing let you keep your rights and control. Self-Publish or Publisher? compares all three side by side.
