FOREIGN RIGHTS SALES

The call is out once again for Foreign Rights Sales applications. If you're interested in having your book presented to foreign publishers, contact us at info@inktreemarketing.com.

Our clients' books have been sold to a multitude of countries around the world. Acquiring a foreign rights contract gives your book credibility and it gives you a bit of extra money for no work on your part. It is very unlikely that you would want, or be able to, take on the sales and distribution of your book in other countries, so selling your rights is a win-win proposition.

I love to see my book in its Polish version, as well as in the other versions that were sold to large corporations. It was all money in my pocket for no effort from me.....

Ebooks

Did you know that last year the sales of ebooks in the U.S. were about $150 million but the projection for 2012 is in the $ billions? Get on the bandwagon!

Creating and selling ebooks is definitely on our agenda for 2010. We have much research to do, and so should you. Don't wait until someone drops the information into your lap. There is officially a new verb in the dictionary, "google" - take action.

We'll let you know what we learn as we go along, but you can also share what you learn with us, either on this blog or to info@inktreemarketing.com.

Cheers,

Book Writing Progress

How is that book writing project coming along? Did you learn anything over the Christmas break that could inspire you? There are many opportunities to study human nature when you're standing in line or pushing through crowds of shoppers. You can also learn from watching children at play - how do they negotiate what they want? Everyday life can be translated into business books, self help books, children's stories, novels and many other genres. Write from what you know. Get your creative juices flowing.

A NEW DECADE - A NEW YEAR - A NEW BEGINNING

The first decade of the twenty-first century is over! Thank goodness. There was a horrific negative energy that seized the entire planet in all areas: personal, financial, environmental, political and anything else that I can think of.

It's over! Now is the time for everyone - you, me, everyone you know and all of the world leaders to embrace a positive mood and a positive philosophy of behavior.

Let's focus on making our own lives the best that we can and on encouraging our leaders to think of the long term benefits for their people.

Isn't it great to be part of this new opportunity?
