The First 8 Pages
Filed under: Business Skills, Collaborative Projects, Internet Basics, List Building, Members Opportunities, Where to Start
Let me share with you the first 8 pages of my diary. You see, each of these pages has a different title I have written. Each title relates to one of 8 steps which have the power to transform a business.
Each step is just as important as the other and under each heading I list ideas and strategies as I learn them or get a brainwave. That way, when I am looking for ideas to grow my business, I just look on the appropriate page. It also means I don’t get overwhelmed by ideas and feel pressured to do everything at once. I know where to find it.
So, what are these 8 key steps? 8 steps that you only need to make small changes to, in order to see massive results?
Over the next few articles I will expand on each of the steps but I’ll list them below. Keep these in mind when planning a project or when looking for ways to increase your profits. So here goes… Read more

3 Ways To Build A Business Based On A Book
Filed under: Collaborative Projects, Create a product, Members Opportunities, Offline strategies for online business
One of the main questions I have been asked this week is “how do you build a business on a book you co-author?”
Let’s get one thing straight first. You don’t make your money from selling the book. This is one of the biggest misconceptions. People like JK Rowling may but don’t count on sales to make you a fortune.
So if you don’t make your fortune from sales of the book, how do you make money?
Attract Your Ideal Customer
When you are positioned as an expert in the eyes of the public (which happens as soon as you publish a book) you stand out from the crowd.
When your ideal customer is choosing between 2 suppliers who do you think they will choose? The person with established credibility who is a recognised author or the person with no established expert status ?
Get Free Publicity For Your Business
Main stream media such as radio, TV and newspapers LOVE an author. In their eyes if you are an author you are an expert. Also, if you have contributed to a book you are TALENT. In media speak, this means you have a story to share and a depth of knowledge to make that story interesting. You can’t pay for this type of coverage.
Create products & coaching programs based on your chapter topic.
If you’ve read the book “The Secret” you will have noticed that there were many contributing authors. Rhonda Byrne owns the book but many of the individual authors have used their inclusion to really grow their businesses. Search on their names. You will find many who have created courses, tele-classes, work books, work shops, conferences etc all based on what they shared in the book. This is where the real power lies and is the topic of the coaching program run by Christine Kloser for the contributing authors of The Power of Choice Book.

I have such an exciting opportunity to share with you. I started to write about it here but found I just couldn’t express my passion and excitement enough using the written word. I had to talk to you face to face. So I sat in my dining room last night and made you a video. I can talk faster than I can type!!!
I’d love to hear what you think. You can find out more at http://www.powerofchoicebook.com

The title of the book is law of Attraction in Action. Your article does not need to be on The Law of Attraction. Your article must give guides to taking ACTION. Part of the guidelines asks for 3 action points readers can take based on your article.
What if I have never written before?
That’s ok. Do the best you can and our volunteer editors will give you feedback if your work needs improving. Last year, many people wrote their first article / chapter ever and the quality was excellent. They had doubts before they started too.
Once I am a contributor does my name end up on the front page of Wonderful Web Women or is this another process?
No. Only our guest speakers are listed on the home page of Wonderful Web Women. You will be listed on the speaker feature page of Wonderful Law of Attraction.
Can you put YouTube links into book?
Sure. A suggestion is to take a screen grab of the video and then put this image in the book. We can then put the link to the video below the image.
What format do you need the chapter submission ?
We have provided a word template for you to use. Please use that as it will make it so much easier for us to put the final document together. Here is the link to download it.
What types of businesses would this be viable for
The topic has been chosen because you can twist it around to suit any business niche. You can talk about how to attract security when you are driving by including actions you can take to maintain your car. As long as the emphasis is on action and being the best you can be.
Contributing to the book will give me credibility but how else can it grow my business?
- You will can put a link to your web site at the end of your article so readers will visit your web site
- You can make a special offer to readers of your chapter that will entice them to come to your website and join your mailing list. A perfect enticement it a free ebook, audio or autoresponder course. Something they need to sign up to get. Then you can build on the relationship through your newsletter. Some people even offer discounts on services or free sessions if you don’t have a product.
- No you don’t but I encourage you to as it will help you make the most of this opportunity
- We’ve thought of a way to make this easier for you. If you have a description of your gift, great. Mention it at the end of your chapter. We have made it that all gifts will be listed on one page of a new website we will create especially for this book. It will be something like www.wonderfullawofattraction.com/gifts . We can add your gifts in January (or even later if you need to) so this takes the pressure off you.
There are 3 sets of people who can benefit from the distribution of this book throughout the Internet. Below is the way each party has the opportunity to grow their mailing list.
- All free and gold members of Wonderful Web Women: Everyone has the right to give the book away. You can give it as a gift to your existing customers or give it away on your web site in return for an email. They join through your email program. The page they are sent to after they join your list is on our special book site. They do not need to join our mailing list to download the book. This makes it easy for you because you don’t need to worry about how much hosting space is taken up when people download the book.
- Contributors: You can benefit as above but also you benefit when a complete stranger reads the book and decides to join your mailing list to take you up on your offer.
- Wonderful Web Women: The only time we get people on our list is if the reader wants to check out all the special offers each contributor has made. To access the gift page they need to join our mailing list.
Yes. You can make money as an affiliate in 2 ways:

Our team has also created some sample emails you can use to promote this project. Simply look under the endorsement emails section in the affiliate tools area.
