Carla King – The Publishing Freedom Course Bundle
Stay free to publish as you want, self-publish or pitch an agent, and change services at will
Be free to self-publish or get an agent and a traditional publishing deal
How do you remain free to self-publish while you are looking for an agent and a traditional publishing deal? How do you create a manuscript that readers and agents want? How do you keep your book data out of the clutches of unscrupulous vanity presses?
This bundle of courses will help you prepare your manuscript and your author platform without making so many of the mistakes most authors make. You’ll learn:
- Why you need to buy your own ISBNs so you don’t get trapped with a service that may prevent you from getting a publishing deal.
- How to cultivate critique partners and early readers into fans and a street team marketing machine.
- How to do the research and market analysis that will help you position your book in the right category, price it, and develop your brand.
- How to create a high-converting website and email newsletter so you can market directly to your fans.
- How to self-edit using electronic tools and early readers before you invest in a professional editor.
This course is a shortcut to preparing your book for rave reviews come launch time whether you self-publish, publish with a traditional house, or make a hybrid deal with a small press or distributor. You’ll learn everything it took me a decade to learn, and benefit from a system I’ve been using to teach hundreds of authors in one-on-one consultations, workshops, and in this course bundle.
