The Indie Author Power Pack Aims to Hit the NYT Best Selling List



Get on the road to a successful self-publishing career! THE INDIE AUTHOR POWER PACK is the ultimate starter guide for anyone considering self-publishing.Three major guides from publishing experts now AVAILABLE ONLY FOR A LIMITED TIME at 99 cents. That's $17 worth of top-rated self-publishing guides, and the price of the box won’t stay at 99c forever. It could rise as early as next week. So hurry and grab your copy, click here .


I got a copy of course, and I think that this is an experiment that deserves the support of every self-published author and aspiring writer: the aim is to hit the New York Times Best Selling List. Tell your friends! And to see how the campaign is going, read this important update by one of the authors, David Gaughran (click here to read).

Ok, it's a very ambitious project but don't think it's just another clever marketing ploy. It's much more than that: if the book set makes it into the NYT list, then it's a major recognition of sorts of the validity/value of self-publishing. 

And this is hugely important because contrary to what a lot of people (especially indie authors think), there are still remnants of the old stigma attached to "vanity" publishing that are clinging to self-publishing. This is unfair. Self-publishing has nothing to do with vanity publishing and it requires guts to do it. You have to be a full-time entrepreneur and ready to do everything - it's not just a matter of writing a book but overseeing and doing a whole series of tasks: from editing and proof-reading to book cover design and marketing, a tall order! Something authors who resorted to vanity presses never did.

If you support the campaign and get your copy, you'll have a lot of useful information at your finger tips: the set of 3 books has over 1000 pages of solid tactics, proven strategies, and actionable advice you can use during each step of the publishing process, from content creation to production and distribution to marketing.

Tap into:
* expert methods for building story worlds, characters, and plots
* a psychology-driven model to shape stories into must-have "products"
* best practices for editing
* practical approaches to cover design, formatting and pricing
* optimized tips for selling fiction vs non-fiction
* short-term vs long-term marketing plans
* updated tactics for building platform and launching new books
* collaborative techniques for selling
* strategies for optimizing profit beyond the written word

These are THE SAME recently updated editions of popular titles you've heard of by industry names I trust and can vouch for. In fact, the authors have collaborated to provide additional exclusive BONUS content you can access FREE!
