Attention Independent Professionals:  Coaches, Speakers, Trainers, Consultants:

"How often do you hear yourself saying, I haven't written my book...but I've been meaning to?"

Spend 45 minutes with me and I promise you'll
Crack the Code of the Successful Author.

You're a professional: a consultant, lawyer, financial agent, therapist, or planner. You know how a book can explode your business growth as you attract media attention, clients, speaking engagements...and the confidence of saying, "I'm a published author."

But few professionals start to write books and only a tiny handful actually finish them.  And most sell fewer than 100 copies.

Can you relate to these scenarios:

  • You're blocked by the question, "What will I do with the book when it's finished?"

  • You're held back by fears like, "Nobody will want to read my book."

  • You're stalled on logistics: agent vs. editor, ebook vs hard copy, self-publish vs. seek an outside publisher.

  • You're afraid of making a mistake that will keep your book from ever reaching your target audience.

  • You feel overwhelmed by everything you have to do (and feel confused about what your next step should bes).

  • You're wondering if you should hire an editor (or you hired an editor and wonder if you're pouring money down a black hole)

  • You have a lifetime goal of finishing your book and somehow you never seem to make it happen.

You are not alone.  Nearly every author and every professional shares your experience.  

Hi, I'm Cathy Goodwin, Ph.D.,  a copywriter, marketing strategist and published author.

I've written copy for campaigns that turned ordinary books into best-sellers. I'm a published author and an "amazon 500" reviewer.  I've been there with the blank screen and "What Happens After Chapter 1" syndrome.

From my experience, I've developed a simple, 5-step process any professional can use to create books that explode their business growth. It helps conquer writers block. And I haven't seen it written up or discussed anywhere else.

The good news is...You can crack the code, starting with one information-packed, action-oriented 45-minute call.

Whether you've just got a few scribbles on a stack of sticky notes or drafted a handful of chapters, you'll benefit from this call.  Get tips you can use immediately to jumpstart your writing and move smoothly to the finish line.

In just 45 minutes, you will take away

  • answers to your toughest questions like, "Should I self-publish?" or "How do I set up my chapters"

  • a surprisingly simple 5-step formula to conquer writers block and keep the momentum going

  • takeaways you can use immediately to conquer blocks and get past the stuck places

  • energy and motivation (so you actually start to enjoy the process)

  • techniques to end overwhelm so you can plan purposefully for your writing program

  • tips on using the Internet to build your platform and promote your book
In just 45 minutes, your book project becomes a game instead of a chore. You'll move from the sidelines to the playing field (and realize you've got all the moves you need).
Imagine...you are celebrating your finished book.

What will that feel like for you?

No more "I ought to write" hanging over your life. Most professionals gain a new sense of empowerment and accomplishment. They realize they're really experts.

You realize you are standing out from the pack...set apart from the professionals who have the same credentials and qualifications - but no book.  You're the go-to person in your field, the pro everybody wants to hire. So you gain tangible benefits like:
  • Your professional career moves to a new level.
  • You charge higher fees.
  • You get invited to speaking engagements and media interviews.
  • You command respect at professional meetings.
  • Your clients make more referrals.
What's the value of these results?

Every professional will see different results. Many see increases in income of thousands of dollars from clients and even more from speaker fees. Nearly everyone gains media exposure you couldn't buy at any price.  

An investment in your book will be an investment in your own professional growth success.

But I wanted the cost of a breakthrough consultation to be a no-brainer...and for now, it's just $97.

That's right. Less than a couple of networking lunches that clobber your schedule (and usually add to your overwhelm and confusion). Less than 2 weeks of calorie-filled cappuccinos with biscotti and tip. Even less than taking me out for a working lunch  to pick my brain.

This call delivers solid recommendations and planning tools. It's not a sales pitch and it's not one of those navel-gazing "assessments" where you pay someone to put a name on your challenges.

FAQs:

"Forty-five minutes....is that really long enough to accomplish something?"

If you're new to the world of telephone coaching, you will be surprised at the power of the 45-minute call. We don't waste time.
  • You complete a pre-call form, so we hit the ground running. We don't talk about the weather.

  • We move directly to your toughest challenges.

  • You get the advantage of my experience so you don't need to visit a dozen places (or spend hours surfing the Internet) to get answers.
If you think about it, most "work" in any consultation takes place within the last 15-20 minutes. We just get there faster.

And if this call is not enough, you can sign up for a longer-term coaching program. Ask me about  how to deduct the cost of this call from those programs.

Your investment may (or may not) be tax-deductible. Ask your professional accountant.

"Does the system work for self-published books and e-books too?"

You bet. In fact, you'll learn how to stand out even more. Most self-published books are written for the author -- not the audience. Most miss one key element that only best-sellers have (and nearly all no-sellers don't).

"But I've already written my book."

If your book has been printed, we will work with what you have. We look over your book and suggest directions for creating your marketing materials, using online booksellers to sell your book and developing innovative approaches you may not have considered.  

"I've just got an idea...I haven't even started to write."

A glimmer of a idea? Scribbles in a notebook? Stack of sticky notes? You're most likely to benefit because you'll discover what you need to get it right the first time.
