Hello and welcome to another episode of The Authority Show, with me, Jessica Killingley. 

Now today's episode is one I've been looking forward to for a long, long time and that's because I am talking to the amazing Cathy Wassall.

So you have your mind set on getting your book traditionally published, do you? You envision some big publishing company reading your book, beaming with pride as they tell you how amazing your book is, then having it show up as a bestseller instantly.

The thing is, that’s not how it usually goes. Traditional publishing is a very slow, long, drawn-out process, and the end result might not look exactly like you think it will.

Don’t get me wrong — traditional publishing has its place and that’s where a lot of my experience lies. But you’ve got to make sure you are approaching that route to market for the right reasons, because if you don’t, it will be massively underwhelming and the outcome might not look the way you think it should.

On this episode of The AUTHORity Show, I’m giving you an inside look at traditional publishing by way of a snippet from my course, The AUTHORity Blueprint. That way you can weigh the options and decide whether it’s the best way for you to get your book into the hands of your readers.

And if you’re interested in participating in The AUTHORity Blueprint, while the live session is closed, the self-study option is ready and waiting for you right here.

 

Here are the highlights from this episode:

 

{2:12} Getting a literary agent

{4:46} What publishing houses care about

{5:23} A publisher doesn’t do everything for you

{9:53} The sliding scales of publishing

 

Are you ready to get started on YOUR book? Wish there was one place that walked you through everything you need to know? Well, my friend, you're in luck because what you need is The AUTHORity Blueprint!

If you’ve ever uttered the words, ‘I don’t know where to start with my book’ or ‘I don’t have time to write it,’ you’re going to want to listen up. The reality is, you don’t have to spend days upon days or weeks on end getting yourself prepared and ready to write your book.

 

How do you get started? Well, your most brilliant option is to schedule a VIP Day with me and we’ll get it all done. 

But if you’re not quite ready for that, you can listen in to this episode of The AUTHORity Show and we’ll do an imaginary one together to get you going.

So what does that look like? Other than enjoying some coffee and scenery, we’ll take it step by step and go through...

 

• Mapping
• Brainstorming
• Outlining
• Chapter breakdown

 

And just like that you’ll go from not knowing where the hell to start to being ready to write your first draft — all in a single day.

 

So when you’re telling yourself you don’t have the time to write a book, this exercise proves that’s a complete load of bollocks (but we already knew that, didn’t we?). 

 

And maybe you actually didn’t know where to start, but now you do.

 

Ready to get all the details during our imaginary VIP Day together? Then grab a cup of tea and tune in to this episode to hear in more detail how we’ll work together to get a plan in place for your book.

 

 

Here are the highlights from this episode:

{2:11} The two things I'll tease out from you first

{4:01} Time to map out what your book is really about

{4:32} Brainstorming for your book

{5:11} What are the steps that you would take someone through in a coaching situation

{6:33} Outlining your book

{7:03} Deciding on your chapter breakdown

{8:44} Scheduling in your writing sessions

{8:55} 'Not having the time is something that you say to cover up the fact that you don't know what to do'.

{9:44} What to do the next time you tell yourself you don't know where to start or you don't have the time to write your book

In my line of work,  I hear a lot of “reasons” as to why coaches and course creators aren’t ready to write a book and I could go on for days about it. But there are two that I hear quite often: 

 

1. They don’t want to take time away from their business to write
2. They don’t have the money it takes to make it happen.

 

The good news is, I have a solution to nix both of them.

I’m giving you the lowdown on an experiment that gives you a foundation for your coaching program or course, but also for your book. It can generate revenue to help fund the publishing process, but also gives you the opportunity to road test your content and get great feedback from your people, too.

All before your book ever goes on sale.

On this episode of The AUTHORity Show, I’ll tell you how writing your book alongside your business can actually help you write the right book, but also provide valuable feedback, testimonies, and revenue along the way.

 

Give it a listen, then if you want help with your book (finally), send me a DM and let’s chat...

 

Let 2021 be the year you finally write your book.

 

Here are the highlights:

{3:23} How it's never just about the book

{4:56} Starting with the end in mind

{6:16} How outlining is such a valuable step in your book journey

{7:49} Starting to map out your coaching programme

{9:06} Putting your beta programme together

{10:19} Pricing your beta programme

{13:29} Road testing your material and getting live feedback
