The Business Book Bible: Everything You Need to Know to Write a Great Business Book

Brian Tracy said This book gives you a proven strategy to write and sell an excellent book on any business subject you know and care about. Todd Sattersten co-author of The 100 Best Business Books of All Time said No one tells you how hard it is to write a business book. Luckily Dereks Bible makes it easier-much easier. Literary agents publishers Fortune 500 consultants-theyve all had rave reviews for The Business Book Bible the only full-length in-depth book on how to put together a great thought leadership book. There are plenty of writing guides out there for memoirs general business communication crime thrillers or romance novels. But until now theres never been anywhere would-be business authors could turn to for help. Thats unfortunate because business books present a completely different set of challenges. For example: - How do you connect with your readers so they trust you and your advice? - How do you artfully point to your products and services without coming off like a late-night infomercial? 
 - How do you keep your reader engaged throughout the book especially if your material is--shall we say--less than thrilling?
 No other writing guide can teach you what you need to know...and do you really want to learn the hard way? 
With writing your book you want to get it right the first time. Written by a business ghostwriter The Business Book Bible covers everything you need to know from framing your authority to picking the perfect title plus: - Figuring out how long your book should be - Winning the battle of writers block - Nailing down your real reader (and what to do when theyre different than your ideal client)
 - Giving away the secret sauce - The unforgivable sin in writing - Looking like a pro (and not a rank amateur) - Acting like a publisher (even if you have one) ....and much much more.

Its wouldve saved me a lot of time headache stress and money. Heres a startling example of just one of the great tips and tricks contained in the book: you dont start writing a book by actually writing the book. One of the biggest mistakes first-time authors make is sitting down at their computer expecting to start with the first word of chapter one and then write all the way through to The End. If only it were that easy! Amateurs try to get it perfect right from the start. The pros know that writing is a process. You start by getting all your ideas out of head and onto paper first. Youll have a jumbled mess that looks like a new jigsaw puzzle. You have to sift and sort through it to find the material worth using. Then and only then can you start piecing the puzzle together. Its a painstaking time-consuming process-but one thats well worth it.
