Rise of the Author
The writer competition was only the first stage.
Mark Joyner has now released a paper called the Rise of the Author in which he outlines how the face of publishing is changing dramatically. And why there is no better window of opportunity for authors to become bestsellers right now.
With his background in Internet marketing it is naturally using the Internet to achieve that, but the goal is for authors to publish their books with a traditional publisher and push them up through a concerted marketing effort (not any tricks or buying books themselves).
Naturally Mark does not reveal the full extend of what is necessary for this marketing effort (that is what he wants to sell at the end of this week).
The Rise of the Author is quite long with lots of history and examples of why he thinks the way he thinks. For people like me who are more into action, the summary at the end of the document probably suffices.
Just in case you are wondering what benefit a freelancer would gain from having a bestseller:
- First and foremost the new status of being a recognized expert
- More client requests so that you can choose who to work with
- Income
- The joy of accomplishment
- Any more…?
