The Rich Dad, Poor Dad Truth About Writing an eBook

I used to think that when it came to making money as an author, the most important thing was to be able to write books.

But I soon realised that it wasn’t true.

It seemed that writing a book wasn’t enough. What I really need to know was how to sell it.

And that’s why I began to read dozens of books about marketing, including one of my favourites, Rich Dad, Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki.

You see, marketing is the most important aspect of being in business and earning money.

As an example, anyone can make a better burger than McDonald's, but McDonald's know how to market. That's why they outsell all other burger joints.

So you don’t just need to know how to write a book, but how to sell it.

This is why one of my favourite ebooks is The 10-Day Ebook Writing and Publishing System because it not only guides you step-by-step through writing and publishing an ebook, it also shows you how you can earn $1,000 a month from it.

Writing a book (or an ebook) and not making sales is a waste of time.

But the 10 Day eBook, not only saves you time (in just 10 days), it helps you earn money from every ebook you write.

I know because I use it myself.

Essentialism and Writing

Many people think that essentialism means doing more.

But it actually means doing less so that you have more time to spend on the essentials in your life.

It means doing less of the unimportant things, or things that no longer serve you, like overeating, watching too much TV, and less of other things that you don’t want in your life including friends and family always wanting favours or wanting your attention.

If you want to write, just write. Tell them you’re busy.

Essentialism isn’t about doing less, but doing less of the unimportant things in your life.

And only you know what’s important to you. Don’t let anyone take that away.

Want to write more?

Do it.

Why Your Writing Blog or Website Is Not Your Writing Business

It’s easy to be deceived into thinking that if you write for your own blog or website, that it’s your online writing business, as in “I own my own blog/website.” (And for the sake of ease, I’ll refer to both as a blog)

But it doesn't matter how many blog posts you write or how many articles you upload your blog is not your writing business. It’s a distribution channel.

And what does it distribute?

Your books or your writing service, because these are the products you sell.

Your blog is there to guide prospects to the products you sell.

So to earn more money, what you need is more products to sell.

I’ve always found a financial correlation between how many products I sell and how much money I make, and  I use my online sites to advertise my latest books or other products.

So even if you call yourself a blogger, your blog is still your distribution channel where you market the products you sell.
