He isn\u2019t aware of the fierce competition for books already in the marketplace. He doesn\u2019t understand his important role in guiding his book toward success. And he may not know that he is responsible, not only for creating a viable product, but marketing it. He probably didn\u2019t evaluate the market before writing the book. He doesn\u2019t know who his specific target audience is. He didn\u2019t write a book proposal, nor did he hire an editor.<\/p>\n
