How to Write and
Self Publish Your Homemade Manuals, Booklets and
CDs for Fun and
Profit
By Mike Moore

Five years ago I was a professional speaker desperately
in need of my own book. After each presentation members of my audience
would approach me and ask if had a book, CD, or manual for sale.
The need was obvious. The market existed. All I needed to do was write
a book or manual and bring it to my audiences. This is how my first
book was born.
I wrote my first book , “Embracing
the Mystery ”nonstop for two months and finally had it
written and illustrated with my own original cartoons.
The
question facing me now was who would be chosen from among thousands of
publishers to bring my masterpiece to the waiting, eager multitudes.
After many submissions to numerous mainstream
publishing houses and many rejection slips, I finally found one who
agreed to publish my book.
The problem was that they couldn’t get
around to it for about a year and a half. I would receive
20% of the retail cost of each copy sold and would have to do
most of the promotion and marketing myself.
This arrangement just wasn’t satisfactory. I needed
the book as soon as possible and I wanted to receive more than 20% of
each copy sold.
It was then that I decided to enter the world of
self publishing and started Motivational Plus Publications.
Five hundred copies of my first book were
printed as a test run and I sold them all within the year as “ back of
the room” items at my speeches and seminars.
Since I wasn’t on the road
speaking 365 days of the year I wanted to have my book available for
purchase seven days a week whether I was speaking or not. I created a
store and connected it to my speaking website. I was in business.
With inexpensive and free well chosen and well
directed advertising online and off I began to receive orders in my
mailbox and by email. As sales increased so did the number of published
items in my store.
At present I have over 20 information
products, manuals, books, tapes, and special reports available for
purchase from two stores.

In my first year as a self publishing tycoon I sold
200 copies of my products online alone and another 200 from
offline ads. Add these sales to those at my talks and you can see that
I was off and running as a self publisher. The orders seem to increase
in number each month.
At present I frequently sell $100 and up per
night from my stores and my offline ads while I sleep. It is fantastic to get up
in the morning and find orders waiting for me in my email inbox and my
regular snail mail.
Writers
are no longer dependent on the acceptance
and approval of editors and publishers. Using the internet
as
well as offline classified ads in popular magazines you can bring your
writing directly to a wide and eager market.
People are always
seeking “ how to” information. In fact the most sought after
items on
the internet are information products. So if you research peoples’
needs, wants and interests then write to satisfy them you are going to
sell effectively.
Self publishing is
simple and cost effective
especially if you print on demand. You don’t print a copy of your
product until you get an order for that product.
By doing this you
avoid the cost of having 500 copies printed plus having to find storage
space in your already cluttered basement.
Another idea that
works well for me by avoiding
shipping and handling costs plus the cost of printing hard copies, is
selling my manuals, books and CDS as downloadable pdf files.
Once
you have the file up and running and connected to a third party credit
card processing company you do nothing but check the sales and
calculate your profits. It really is terrific.
If you have the writing bug and have received enough
rejection slips to wallpaper a bedroom, try self
publishing. When that first order comes in you will feel
great satisfaction and a surge of self confidence which will,
inevitably, result in more sales. You will be on your way to conquering
the world of self publishing and earning fantastic profits in the
process.
GOOD LUCK!
