How to Develop Your First Product Fast

How to Develop Your First Product Fast:

As a seminar speaker, you need a product. You need a product for a number of reasons. A product can be another revenue stream, it can give you tremendous added credibility, and it can promote you 24/7 without you having to do a thing.

The ideal product for you to have is a book. I don't know exactly why, but when you're an author, you get a degree of respect and credibility and authority you just don't have otherwise.

However, lots of people find writing a book a daunting task. I understand that. After I wrote my first book, I swore I'd never write another, but I did write another book - and it was a lot of work, I wrote every single word of each of my books. You can hire a ghost writer, and I know a couple of good ones I can refer you to, or you can hire someone on a work-for-hire website such as elance.com. But those options are not necessarily cheap.

If you want to have a book fast, then you should write up a good outline, then hire a ghost writer or someone from elance, and also give them everything you have in writing such as articles you've written, your brochures, website info, audio recordings you have of your seminars - anything and everything you have on you and what you do. They can fill in the rest based on your outline and information, and in short order you'll have your book.

There's a much faster way to have a terrific product in no time flat, and I'll talk about that tomorrow, see you then!

Hi David (hey, great name!) - I only meant to tease you all for one day, but looks like I accidentally teased you longer than I had anticipated!

I'll tease you just a bit more and answer it this week for sure!
