Let's say you HAVE written your book and you've gotten it published and printed. One day you come home and there are a truckload of boxes on your front doorstep. You realize they're the copies of your book. OH WOW! They're here! They're REAL! They're YOUR BOOK! You are an Author. But, is the dream complete?
No...of course not. How do you get those books out of the boxes and into people's hands? You obviously had something to say, so you want it heard, or in this case, read. Naturally, before you even get to this point, you DO have a killer marketing plan for your book . . . Don't you?
The more people who read your message the better. So, the REAL dream is to become a #1 BEST-SELLING Author!
Think of all the amazing things you can do once you've become one, like being invited to speak at various seminars, where you get to share your message, and your offer to sometimes 100 people or more. Not to mention, there's money to be made from being a speaker at these events, plus the money you can make from various joint venture opportunities. After all, who wouldn't want to do business deals and make money along with a Best-Selling Author?
Best of all, it is a lot easier to achieve than most people realize.
Best Seller Lists are all based on periods of time. So you need YOUR book to be the best seller during a specific period of time. For example, some lists are hourly, like Amazon.com, some are daily and others are weekly.
So, the secret to making YOUR book a best seller is to sell as many copies as possible in a specific period of time. Which is great, because it means you don't have to sell thousands and thousands of copies all at once. As long as your book sells more copies than any other book in that specific period of time, then YOU become the next Best-Selling Author!
For example, if you're targeting Amazon.com for your campaign, and you get more people to buy your book in a one hour period of time than any other book, then your book will be the next #1 Best Seller on that website.
So, how do you do that?
Simple. The key really boils down to making an irresistible offer, an offer that is just too good to pass up, an offer that causes people to take action and buy your book today. They'll want it now, rather than maybe buying it at some point in the future, or possibly not at all.
All you need to do, is make people want to buy your book more than any other book, during the specific time period of your best seller campaign. If you offer them about ten times as much value as they're paying for, that should do it.
I've personally used this technique to make my own book a #1 Best Seller; and I've taught it to others who have used it very successfully as well.
Do this yourself and I'll see YOU at the top of the next Best Seller List!
