Have you noticed that everyone is writing a book? If you listen to or watch radio\/TV talk shows, you are being constantly introduced to individuals who have written books. Many of them are ordinary people who have published books on parenting, cats, hiring a foreign nanny, politics, spirituality, public speaking, Yoga, home birthing, relationships, flying, budgeting, health issues, fitness, computing, mentoring or any number of other topics.<\/p>\n
Everyone is publishing his or her memoirs, thoughts, poetry, realizations, discoveries, insights, dreams and other creations. And a whole lot of people are becoming authors by way of elaborate business cards.<\/p>\n
I\u2019m sure you know people in this category\u2014they want added credibility in their field and they come out with a book to that end. <\/p>\n
I write books for authors and freelance writers. My books cover the workings and processes involved in the publishing industry, your publishing options, how to write a book proposal, book promotion and so forth. My business is writing and editing. These books help to give me and my work credibility. <\/p>\n
I know someone who operates a nonprofit organization for the welfare of animals. Her book on the same topic is like a business card for her organization. I also know animal behaviorists, elder caregivers, photographers, veterinarians, marketing experts and plenty of psychologists who have written books in their fields.<\/p>\n
I\u2019ve met a caregiver in the field of mental disorders, a job counselor, a dog trainer, a horse trainer, a couple of psychics, a chef, a gardener, graphic designers, artists, a woman who works with the deaf, a realtor, a fashion designer, a financial expert, an attorney, a travel agent and other men and women in various specific businesses who produced books in order to enhance their businesses. <\/p>\n
Do you know what I call these books? Sophisticated business cards.<\/p>\n
If you\u2019re working on a business card book or are thinking about writing one, keep a couple of things in mind:<\/p>\n
