Steps to Publishing Success

Even if your best friend owns a top publishing company, giving you an immediate "in," this does not guarantee publishing success.

First, you have to write a quality book that has a clear target audience. And your book must answer a common problem or need that audience shares. Then you have to develop a marketing plan, and stick to it for at least two years.

Let's begin with the process that should commence before you write your first word. Begin by reading A LOT. Read both books you passionately love and books you can't seem to make it past page five. Then figure out what the author did in the book you loved, and what was wrong with in the book you couldn't finish. Write down these points so they are crystal clear to you. Read other people's books for inspiration and to discover what you should avoid as a writer.

The next step is to plan out your book. Narrow down your subject, and then divide it into chapters. Each chapter should address a specific aspect of the problem your book is going to solve. In each chapter, break the specific aspect down into several parts. This will help your readers take in your information a bit at a time instead of overwhelming them with every bit of information clogging up the pages until they feel like they're about to go blind. It's not quite spoon-feeding the information to your readers, but it's close.

The next two steps are obvious. Write your book and then revise it. And then revise it again. And perhaps again. Of course, writing is extremely hard, and writing a book can seem like an impossible task. There are many books out there that give you guidelines to help you become familiar - and even love - the process of writing and revision. Find a number of books about writing. Better yet, find a number of books about writing the specific type of book you aspire to write. These can serve as roadmaps on your writing journey.

Once you've written your ebook and revised it at least twice, show it to someone else whose opinion you respect. If you're lucky enough to know a good editor, see if you have something to barter for him or her to go through your manuscript. Or join a writing group and let the other members critique your work.

Then take all these ideas from other people, and revise your manuscript one last time. And then stop! Put down that pen! Get your hands off the keyboard!

One of the most important steps to actually producing a book is to know when to stop writing and tinkering with it.

You've finally written your ebook! Pop open the bubbly! Give yourself a night out on the town!

Okay, now that this necessary celebration is out of your system, what do you do next?

How to turn your ebook into Profits

Ebooks are a revolutionary way to publish your book without incurring the costs of print production. All you need is a relevant and targeted subject and some inexpensive software, and you can transform your manuscript into a book.

The problem, in terms of actually seeing any profits from your ebook, is that the market is overwhelmed with ebooks, and many of them are not worth the time it takes to download them. Just because the ability exists to easily produce an ebook, doesn't make it good writing.

Make sure your book does not simply rehash old material. You will injure your credibility as an author by claiming to offer valuable new insights and disappointing your audience with material they've read a zillion times before. So spend enough time writing and revising your book to make sure it's of the highest quality and presents the most current information. A good book will eventually sell itself; false claims about your book will make it extremely difficult to sell any future books you may write.

Assuming you have determined that you do indeed have a quality product that answers some question or need of your target audience with NEW information, how do you know how much to charge for it? Rule number 1: Set a price for your book equal to its value. An under-priced book will only give the impression that your book isn't worth very much.

To figure out a fair price, estimate how much time you put into creating it and how difficult it was to transform the necessary information into understandable and engaging writing. Figure out how much your time and effort is worth, and then price it accordingly. The goal is for you to be adequately compensated for your talent, your time, and your effort.

Once you've figured out a price that is high enough to convey the value of the book, but not so high as to be out of the reach of your target audience's mean budget, then it's time to offer it for sale on your website. To attract sales, you will need to develop a promotional campaign, particularly if you are an unknown author.

There are multitudes of books about self-promotion that will guide you in your efforts. Choose a plan that is both creative and professional. Learn how to write a catchy yet informative press release, and send copies of your ebook to sites that specialize in ebook reviews.

Learn how to write powerful sales copy, or hire someone to write it for you. This is an essential. You absolutely need excellent sales copy to sell your book. Make sure the copy includes all the reasons your target audience needs your book, and the benefits they will derive from buying it.

Use graphics in your promotional materials. Beautiful graphics have the power to instantly convey the quality and value of your ebook. Graphics can also convey the amount of valuable information the book contains, and your careful attention to detail. Professional graphics sell professional books. They reassure the customer that the product is what it claims to be.

Consider excerpting chapters for articles. You can offer these tidbits for free on your website as a sort of demo of your book. Include an order form for your ebook at the end of the excerpted articles.

Finally, when you set-up your download link, make sure to simplify the process. It's a good idea to offer a few bonuses that make your book even more enticing to purchase, but make sure the bonuses are valuable and high quality. Too many bonuses that are basically a load of useless stuff will compromise the impression your audience has of your ebook. The goal is to convey to your audience that they are getting a quality product for a good deal. That means applying restraint, especially when it comes to adding bonus items. Too much free stuff offered diminishes your credibility.

Make sure your book is a quality product. Make sure it is relevant and current. Develop an effective marketing plan that includes excellent sales copy and excerpted articles. Then offer your book for sale, and wait for your audience to discover you!

PROFIT & LOSS

One of the quiet businesses not often in the news is the nursing home industry. It is not uncommon for each facility to require a staff of between seventy and one hundred people. Nursing homes fall into two categories. The first is non-profit and the second is for-profit. The non-profit variety is in a class of it's own and not part of this article.

I use the nursing homes as an example because it's the industry I'm familiar with. Why is the nursing home in business? To make a profit. Let's examine a corporate owned nursing home. I am thinking of a large corporation which owns nursing homes and hospitals. Owned is perhaps the wrong word because most of the buildings are only operated by this company.

The buildings are usually owned by a group of investors. The day to day management is provided by a separate company. A company intent on turning a profit. No matter what In the early 90's, Medicare changed the rules of payment and money became less plentiful. Many of the smaller facilites closed their doors. The larger and more profitable corporations took them over.

The particular management company I worked for had a large corporate structure. Large corporate structures require large profits to afford the many levels of management. And these people don't work for free. Money to pay the yearly salaries plus the bonus system has to come from someplace.

The local building is run by an Administrator. Some companies go high brow and refer to them as Executive Directors or some such variation. The Administrator answers to the Regional Director. The Regional has multiple buildings under them. The Regional of the company I'm thinking of reportedly bought a new Dodge SUV for his wife. He reportedly used his Christmas bonus to pay cash for it. That's at least $35,000. More then many of us earn in a year.

I fully realize companies must operate at a profit if they wish to keep their doors open. Individual people also must operate their homes without going into debt if they wish to keep their heads above water. Do businesses need to operate at such a high profit margin without any concern for their employees? Finances aside for a moment, do individuals need to conduct their lives in such a way that they become emotionally bankrupt?

The nursing home industry is a relatively large scale operation based on the PROFIT & LOSS system. What I wish to examine is how this trickles down to you and me. How about the phrase, "What's in it for me?" This is a phrase most of us are familiar with. "How will I benefit from whatever you are asking me to do?" is another.

A friend of mine recently read a book about setting boundaries in our personal lives. She has been giving me the high lights as she read the book. A better title for the book would be, "Me, Me, Me & Me." I fully realize it's difficult when others crowd us but this book takes 'me first' to a whole new level.

I can almost hear military veterans who have stood and fought for our country saying, "I will not allow the government to tell me what to do. They have no right." Or how about dedicated military doctors knee deep in blood saying, "This is way out of my comfort zone." Or the doctors who answer the call to national disasters. How about 911? Have we forgot about the police officers and firemen who didn't stop to consider the consequences before they charged into the jaws of death to save their fellow New Yorkers?

Is this situation profitable to me? Or will it be a loss? The boundaries book told young adults they have the right (and perhaps the responsibility) to turn their backs on their parents if the parents were not meeting every need of theirs. I fully realize not every parent has been sterling examples of ideal parenting. The book wasn't talking about them. It was speaking of regular parents who love their children. What was their crime? Perhaps caring too much. Maybe the parent is perceived as being un-supportive. Or perhaps too nosy. Or whatever excuse is handy.

One lady I know has a daughter who decided the 'support group' she accumulated cared more about her then either of the parents. I am confident this lady was a good mother. I doubt she was perfect, but then again, who is? Certainly not the daughter. This is the woman who sacrificed constantly for her children. The book in question was a road map of the daughter's life. Unpleasant letters she wrote her mother were almost straight out of the book.

PROFIT & LOSS is the backbone of business today. It's more profitable to lie when convenient. We hear so much about business that I think we forget business is nothing more then men and women buying and selling. I once worked for a company which sold groceries to restaurants.

I over heard one of the salesmen talking on the telephone to a customer. He was lying through his teeth. I asked him about it when he was finished with the conversation. His reply? "It's just business." The boss was no better. He lied to his customers so often that when somebody had to fill in for him they had no idea what to say.

The system of PROFIT & LOSS spills over into all facets of our lives. Relationships are based on what the other party is perceived as being able to do for us. Dating is started with filling out a credit history. At the end of the form is the question, "Where do you see yourself in five years."

If what I'm saying isn't true, why are the divorce rates so high? What ever happened to sticking it out with our mates? Apparently it's not lasting values which guide us in our selections of a spouse. By now somebody is asking what a single woman knows about relationships. I dislike child rearing articles written by couples with one child. What do they know about anything? In my case, I base my opinion strickly on the statistics. I don't need a husband just to prove my point.

Nursing homes are notorious for firing people at the drop of a hat. Somebody in corporate has a friend who needs a job. Who cares if they are qualified. They'll learn. Whatever happened to employer responsibility? Or for that matter, what about employee responsibility? Businesses are made up of people. Responsibility is a two way street. I certainly don't mean to be down in the mouth but I don't see any solution on the horizon.

Quitting a job is no big deal many people feel. Quitting a marriage isn't any big deal either. Quitting any relationship isn't anything to lose sleep over. Or are these things a bigger deal then we are willing to admit? When do we accept the fact we are adults? When do we finally grow up and stop acting like children? When do we see things through just because it's the right thing to do?

It's not my intention to anger anybody. It is my intention though to ask you to think before you act. PROFIT & LOSS is a huge subject we have just scratched the surface of. Even the Bible speaks of it. "What does it profit someone to gain the whole world and lose their soul?" Mark 8:36.

If you are not a Bible believer, how about simple common sense? Look at the words quoted as literature if you like. Do you consider yourself a happy person? Is your life fulfilling? Is getting your own way really paying off for you? I've worked with people who had to have their own way much of the time. They weren't what I would consider happy people. Not by a country mile.

Cheap Homes

Cheap Homes
by Keith Davies
When it comes to real estate, it's really hard to beat a cheap home. Cheap homes are very affordable, and ideal for those on a budget. For real estate agents, these types of homes represent a way to buy a home at a low price, build it up some more, then sale it for a large price. Making money with real estate is easy to do - no matter how you look at it.

Although you can find cheap homes throughout the United States, some will obviously be better than others. Some are in great neighborhoods, giving you plenty to see and plenty to do all around you. On the other hand, most towns that offer the cheapest homes normally have a bad situation when it comes to the job market. They can be great to retire to or settle down in if you own a business, although they aren't great if you need a job. Internet marketers and writers are finding these areas, are flocking to them at a very fast pace.

You can also save quite a bit of money by buying a home that is less expensive, but still fits your needs. What this means, is buying a home in the inexpensive areas of your town, or buying a home that is cheap in price. You shouldn't be focused on one type of home or neighborhood, but instead look at your available options and compare prices.

Keep in mind that buying cheap homes doesn't necessarily mean buying a run down place or buying your home in a bad part of town. You can get a cheap home in a great neighborhood, if you weight your options accordingly. If you shop around and look at different areas, you might find yourself very surprised at just how many homes are available at cheap prices. Before you purchase a home, you can save a lot of money if you know how to negotiate with the real estate agent. Although a home may have a higher price than you are willing to pay, you can shave quite a bit of the price off through negotiating. If you learn just a few of the simple techniques of negotiating, you can save a lot of money. Each and every day, hundreds of people get cheap homes by negotiating with real estate agents.

In some cases, you can end up paying the full price of a home and still end up spending less than someone else might spend. Although price has an impact, financing is also an area that can help to make a home more affordable. If you get a low interest rate, you'll save a lot of money when you buy the home. There are several ways that you can save money through your finance options, which is why you should always research what's available to you before you buy.

Before you decide to buy a home, you should always think things through and be sure to look around different areas and neighborhoods. Even though there are many cheap homes out there, you can get just as good of a deal through negotiating. Most cheap homes sell very quick, which is why you should always be on the lookout for one. When you find a cheap home that fits your needs, you should act on it. Contact the agent, take a tour of the home, then decide if the price and the features are indeed what you've been looking for. If it isn't - simply forget about the house and start looking for another one.

10 Tips For First Time Home Buyers

It's not every day that an opportunity comes along for the novice to be trained in the success principles that will allow him/her to not be stunted by lack of information, but enabled by the use of free training videos that explore the means of success to network marketing. The secrets that many people don't have answered are revealed to anyone taking the time to learn them in these videos.

The novice benefits from the videos on ad writing and is shown ways to set up an email marketing system with free autoresponders that are preloaded with 524 sales letters that go out every other day to prospects that have shown interest. This is a superior follow up capability that allows the novice to be able to concentrate on writing ads, articles and press releases with the guiding hand of free training videos and an expert truly committed to the success of all.

Today people are being sold on the idea of buying leads and then cold calling them, facing a lot of rejection, and probably not getting people that have an interest in, or know anything about, an offer. This takes a person with a thick skin and good skills in talking to people on the phone. The newbie doesn't possess these skills and when confronted with constant failure and rejection is unlikely to stay the course. There are people who have succeeded despite these problems. I know of one man who spent $7000 on leads in a period of a year, had nothing to show for it, that developed his own course from what worked for him and today reaps the rewards of his efforts. This takes time, careful thought, and result tracking which a novice knows nothing about.

The other strategy would be to have a lead generation system available at a low cost, to get the leads, and a method of marketing to these leads, not cold calling, but having people that are interested in what you have to offer, creating a warmer prospect than those you receive by cold calling. The pains suffered from cold calling rejections will be diminished and the attitude problems will be lessened enabling the novice to continue striving for success.

Having a full blown marketing system in place and a bonus of 10,000 leads per day could really help the novice to start earning more quickly giving him/her a more positive experience creating perhaps more confidence in his/her abilities and the process as a whole. Many home based businesses don't have these benefits in place.

When the novice realizes that the tools onboard can increase his/her chances of success and that people truly want them to succeed then the chances are that this new marketer will be able to grow, survive, and finally make money.

New home buyers: What you need to know about buying a new home. Part 2

In this section I am going to discuss what questions should be asked and what factors need to be considered when a new home buyer has located a property, and would like to begin the process to claim ownership of the property.

Purchase contract features

If you need to obtain financing, it is important to make the purchase contingent upon receiving suitable financing. This insures return of the earnest money deposit to the buyer, in the event that the buyer cannot obtain financing in the time frame specified.

You can include a built in counteroffer clause. If you are anticipate that you may not be the only party submitting an offer on the property, adding a clause with wording similar to, "In the event that seller receives multiple offers, the buyer agrees to pay X amount of dollars over highest offered price, up to a max price of Y." You should discuss the pro's and cons of this clause with your agent because there are downsides to including it. One downside to including this clause in the residential purchase contract is that the seller may perceive you as being overzealous in your desire to purchase the home and that may lead to a higher counteroffer asking price.

Obtaining Financing

I would refer you to my articles descibing the various pros and cons to different loans such as (ARMS, Fixed Rates, Option ARM's, etc). Included are some of the questions a borrower should ask when comparison shopping for a loan.

Get your credit score as high as possible, your interest rate and likelihood of being qualified increase significantly with a higher credit score. If possible, payoff as much debt as possible, such as those 200 balances on that department store card you signed up for to get the advertised discount. Do this as early in the process as possible, it takes a while for these changes to your debt ratio to be reflected in your credit report.

Get preapproved by a lender or mortgage broker. This makes you essentially a cash buyer with a lender agreeing to approve you for a loan, barring any unexpected changes to your financial situation situation. Its also a good way to find out how much you can afford before you waste time and energy looking at homes out of your price range. A good preapproval letter will contain the following information: amount of loan, interest rate, contact information for mortgage broker or loan officer, and date letter was issued (typically letters are deemed reliable for 30 days max).

Find a lender or mortgage broker. A good loan officer will provide all the information that you (the borrower) need to make an informed decision about which loan to choose. And will also assist you with doing everything in the power to troubleshoot potential obstacles that occur during the processing of the transaction. Also, many lenders offer information that helps buyers to compare loan types.

Ups of Starting Home business

Once they are in the ClickBank data base webmasters like you and me who are looking for good content and commissions from our web sites can join their affiliate programs and start earning money from sales generated.

Affiliate programs set themselves apart from the million other results in two ways. First, with affiliate programs, a person can click on one page and find a listing of several high quality results.

One of the biggest questions I see all over the internet these days is: "Is Affiliate Marketing an Online Money Marketing Scam?" If you have spent any time looking for ways to generate extra money from home, I am sure you have seen this many times. Before I try to answer this question, let's step back and explain what affiliate marketing really is.

The Ups of Starting Home business

The number of people living is steadily increasing daily, so is the demand for more jobs. The problem is the availability does not meet the demand for them. This is the reason why more and more people are becoming interested in establishing their own businesses, at home.

In setting up a home business, the choice is vast. One may choose to switch to a new line of work or to do something similar to a current job. One can also choose from either a service-based business or a product- based business. The market that will be served can either be the local or the universal one. A choice from full-time and part-time job also depends on the individual. A home business could be the source of primary income or serve as an adjunct to the current income.

Since most people are involved with the computer and the Internet these days, it is wise to take advantage of it. A lot of companies don¡¯t require an office, instead make their presence known online. It is the time to take advantage of this by marketing oneself to those companies.

is a lie because the same gurus spend sleepless nights working on the products they sale you. The truth is that for any business to succeed there should some investment in time and money. Nowadays many people want to make money online using the power of affiliate programs, but most of them fail to achieve that financial level. Affiliate programs can be very profitable, if you have the resources to promote it online. Most people think that just by joining an affiliate program they are going to make money, but that¡¯s not how it works these days.

You then need to get your product or service noticed. This means you need to do some internet marketing and advertising of your business. There are many ways to do this. Start this by building a website of your home based business. Make sure the website is easy to navigate with eye catching designs. Have descriptive information and pictures about your product or service as well.

As you can see, there is plenty of opportunity here to make money, legitimately. There is no con involved. Nothing illegal involved. Just good business practice. So is making money online through affiliate marketing a scam? Absolutely not! Full reviews on Making Money Opportunity here. Proven Money Making Opportunity as seen on CNN Money, CBS and Forbes.

Not all people has to be computer literate to do good with home business, some do day care, pet grooming, and still do good. Passion counts when choosing the ¡°right¡± one.

Since a lot of home businesses are being established everyday, several books have been written to give tips on how to start business opportunities at home. Similarly, online resources are also made available. However, be wary of them because some of them have illegitimate offers. There are certain rules of thumb that are applicable when trying to determine if the business opportunity is legit. First, candy coated offers that seem too good is not really that good. Too much flavor for a little job done may be a scheme. Second, if it asks for some money to give the low down about their business proposal, count it out. Third, if considering a business, make sure to try out their product or services. It takes a particular kind of individual who can pull this business opportunity work.

It is also important to invest on something if a thorough research has been done to ensure good flow of money of the chosen business. Best Money Making Opportunity as seen on CNN, CBS and Forbes! Full details at http://www.money-2007.info

You know that it must be possible! After all you are buying these products and you know that with the millions of people on the internet, that other people must be buying them too. So you know that it is possibile to make money selling other people¡¯s great products, you just need to find out how.

This will, in turn, generate more web traffic to your website and possibly more customers. You may also wish to utilize search engine optimization. This will get your website listed at the top of the search engine results that pertain to your product or service.

Notwithstanding this, there are some programs which offer better returns. Some of these come as packages including advertising

Your business might need time to develop and gain trust from your customers or visitors. For example, let¡¯s say Bob applied to an affiliate program and starts building a website around that to presell customers and drive traffic to his affiliate links. He thinks he is going to submit his website to search engines and start receiving some free traffic.

Is business card printing a feasible home business?

Stay relevant to your main web sites theme or subject matter. If for example you own a sports related web site and you add cosmetic and make up ads to it, chances are you are not going to do well. But if you put ads for health and fitness supplements on your sports oriented web site you may interest a few people into buying those products earning you a commission. There is a particular web site where I regularly place my free internet marketing articles to generate traffic to my blog. Quite often several so called internet marketing experts place articles shortly after one of mine has been posted talking about the impossibility of making any money online without spending lots of cash on advertising.

Allying a company with several other high volume companies means the company has increased visibility with all of the other companys customers or potential clients. This increased visibility lends itself to increased hits on the companys website, and those increased hits increase the opportunities for sales.

Stay relevant to your main web sites theme or subject matter. If for example you own a sports related web site and you add cosmetic and make up ads to it, chances are you are not going to do well.

If you are new to the internet or have not paid much attention to what is going on, you may not realize the amount of advertising that exists in ether-space. These days, on almost any search engine, article, blog, myspace, email account, etc that you visit, there is probably some sort of advertising somewhere (if not all over the place).
