MORNING PRESENTATION:
CrowdFunding Success for Authors and Writers
Dr. Judith Briles, Founding Partner, The Book Shepherd
It takes a village to create a book … and money. Money for editing, money for cover design, money for interior design and layout, money for marketing, money for publicity, money for printing books, money for education to become a savvy author, money for …
Yes, it takes money. Thousands of dollars. Unless you have plenty of money to fund your book, an awesome friend or relative that loves what you do and is glad to write checks to support you and your journey, or you win the lottery … you need to noodle ways to underwrite your book project(s).
CrowdFunding is a way to get money … other people’s money that comes to you as a “gift.” Oh, you will pay taxes because you will report it as revenues … but you don’t have to pay it back. That’s a Happy Dance for today.
Key Takeaways include:
- Learn what CrowdFunding is and how it can work for you.
- Identifying which source to use, how it works, and how you get paid.
- How to structure your campaign and manage your roll-out.
- How to create perks/rewards that deliver buy-in.
- Create a CrowdFunding Game Plan.
- Timelines and how to develop partners to support your quest.
- Using Virtual Assistants to do preliminary and ongoing campaign work.
