Marketing With A Book And Speech
Henry DeVries CEO, Indie Books International

Your clients can share something in common with Bill Gates, Jack Welch, Ray Kroc, Hillary Clinton, and Donald Trump. All have used ghostwriters.

Getting published is an important variable in the marketing success quotient. Don’t let your clients use the excuse that they are “not a good writer” prevent them from earning a valuable byline with your help.

What is essential and can never be farmed out, however, is their ability to present quality information and ideas. Your co-created material should spark an “ah-ha” in your readers and ignite them to reach greater heights. If you can help your client prompt someone else to succeed, then you will have succeeded too.

There is a plethora of professional writers who are eager to find good ghostwriting assignments. Finding them just takes an understanding of how such writers get their work.

A good place to start is with a professional writers’ association in your community. The library, bookstores, university English or journalism departments, or your local paper may know of the writers’ organizations in your town. If not, chances are a local public relations, marketing, or advertising agency may know.
