Books have become the new business card. Books are something that people keep, they can use them, and they make people think of you! People are likely to throw away business cards, but not books.
\n
\nHowever, a lack of confidence, insecurities, doubts, and other factors keep people from writing books. Who\u2019s gonna buy it? Who\u2019s going to listen to what I have to say?
\n
\nWriting and publishing a book can be a scary and intimidating process for most people. They may have the drive and ambition to write a book, but they don\u2019t have a publishing formula to follow.
\n
\nFortunately, the publishing industry is much easier these days. Plus, Chandler Bolt is here to help entrepreneurs with self-publishing books to build their business and increase business leads.
\n
\nSelf-published books offer entrepreneurs a source of passive income. But they also serve as a powerful marketing and networking tools. They open so many doors and help you build a following for your business. By writing books and self-publishing them, you become known as an expert and grow your personal brand and business.
\n
\nSelf-publishing is a lot easier than people think, and it allows you to be in a position of power if you do it well!

\nChandler\u2019s Actionable Tips:
\n
\n\t* Done is better than perfect: Don\u2019t expect your first book to be your best and to be perfect. Just get a book done and make it available.
\n\t* Be consistent: Spend time regularly writing and set a goal to write so much each day. Plug away!
\n\t* Be accountable: Hold yourself accountable, but also get an accountability partner. They will help you keep on track!
