Why Your Business Isn't Increasing
Writing a best-selling book is an incredible feat!But it’s just the beginning. You can now expand your business by getting PR and media with your best-selling book.So how can you do that?In this post, we detail three simple steps to getting PR and media with your book.Why Do You Want Media and PR?Before digging into the steps for getting PR and media, it’s important you understand why this is something you want.Momentum.PR and media are crucial strategies for growing your business. The content of your book is likely well suited for mass media. Leverage your book to get on media, and you will reach more potential clients. You can use PR and media to get your book into the hands of your target audience and to start the conversation it takes to gain clients.3 Steps to Use Your Book to Get You on MediaHook the Producer by Hooking His/Her AudienceMass media producers are interested in what his or her audience is interested in. Show the producer your value by demonstrating that the audience will eat up the topic. Often times, you must broaden your message to do this.Get the Book in Your Producer’s HandsThere’s a couple of ways to do this. Firstly, you can send a digital version or PDF of your book. Ideally, send the actual physical version of the book. The higher profile the media, the more important it is to get the physical book into the hands of the decision-maker. You can start by sending the PDF version and offering to send the physical copy if they provide an email address. (by the way, that’s a very effective way to get someone to respond). This is absolutely critical for mass media.But guess what?If you want speaking engagements, you must find a way to get your book in the hands of the person making the decision.Schedule a Phone CallUse the credibility and authority from your book and the hook you created to get on a call. Focus on closing the phone call. Once you get on the phone, it will be much easier to close the deal for the media appearance.So that’s it!Hook the producer, send your book, and schedule a call.But wait, what if you don’t get any response?Try leading with a giving hand and offer to ship the book. If you still don’t hear back, send more pieces of authority like TV clips you were in, magazine features, etc.Not everyone will respond, and that’s okay. All you need is some percentage of media to respond to you. This will create a momentum where people start coming to you for features, and it all starts with you building credibility, hooking your audience, and forming relationships.

3 Things You Can Do To Massively Scale Your Business – Publish. Promote. Profit. with Rob Kosberg Episode 105 How would you like to massively scale your impact and income at the same time?This podcast was live streamed March 13, 2018 to our BSP University clients.On this call you will learn three things you can do to totally turn YOUR business around. In 1992 Dave Ramsey was just coming out of bankruptcy. He was selling his first book out of the trunk of his car and got an opportunity to be on a radio show in Nashville. What Dave didn’t know at the time was that the radio station was failing and going through massive layoffs. After his appearance on this radio show, Dave pitched the idea that he could do a daily financial show during one of the time slots that would become vacant as the station began laying off their higher paid DJs. This show would later be known as the Dave Ramsey Show, a nationally syndicated radio show that is still airing today, 25 years later. Dave’s success started modestly and grew little by little. As the economy got better people became more and more interested in his show and products. Today, he is a multi-millionaire. How did he do it?Connect with Rob:Websitebestsellerpublishing.orgTwitter@bspbooksInstagram@bspbooksFacebookfacebook.com/bestsellerpubYouTubeyoutube.com/c/BestSellerPublishingOfficialLearn more about your ad choices.

Building a National Brand Using a Book featuring Bew White
Building a National Brand Using a Book– Publish. Promote. Profit. with Rob Kosberg Episode 104 Bew WhiteIn 2013 Bew White was named Entrepreneur of the Year by the Society of International Business Fellows and in 2021 he received a Lifetime Achievement Award from the International Casual Furnishings Association. He is also the subject of the well-received biography A Summer Classic: The Bew White Story by Christopher Taunton. Bew graduated from Auburn University in 1972 with a degree in textile engineering. The phrase “outdoor living” had hardly been coined, as outdoor furniture was simply known as a table and chairs you would find on a basic patio deck. At just 28 years old, Mr. White left his job at his family-owned business, Avondale Mills, and started a sales representative company in 1978 called Vista Corporation, specializing in selling outdoor furniture. In 1987, Bew started multiple companies in an effort to expand from selling on the road to building a national brand. One of those companies was Summer Classics, which was created around Bew’s thought of designing and manufacturing products that he would want for his own backyard. With a business model based on creating products that were consumer driven, would stand the test of time, and would not go out of style, Summer Classics officially took off in 1987.Listen to this informative Publish.
