Busy Professionals Can Get More Clients When They Publish Their Own Books

Professionals can build their practices when they write a book, says self-publishing expert Ellen Reid, author of "Putting Your Best Book Forward, A Book Shepherd's Secrets for Producing Award-Winning Books That Sell".  "Professionals need every advantage to sign new clients. A book can be the key factor to turn a professional into a superstar," said Reid, president of Ellen Reid's Book Shepherding.



Reid helps busy professionals turn their manuscripts into a professionally produced book that becomes a key marketing tool for professionals. She also helps doctors, lawyers and business owners create their own publishing companies so they can retain all their rights, including electronic rights, to create e-books, printed books, audio books and other products.

"A book helps turn a coach, consultant or business owner into an expert and a thought leader. A book helps create their expert status," said Reid, whose clients have written books on health, business, finance, memoir and fiction and many other genres.

"If you don't create a book that stands up well next to the books published by big houses, your brand image will suffer as a result," she said. "There are many details that go into making a book look and feel like a book that brings honor to a professional and one that makes them proud," she said.
"Professionals are busy with their work. They don't have time to deal with the details of producing a book. That's where I come in," said Reid. "I make sure I am available to accommodate my client's time zones and because I know my clients have busy work schedules. My clients and I talk, text, email and iChat!"

Reid is a book producer. She assembles a team of creatives who are experts in their fields and include cover designers, copy editors and copywriters and more. For more info, visit: selfpublishingexcellence.com
