Top 3 Value Bombs
1. Think about your category and about how you’ll stand out. When you have that done, you already have the idea for your book.
2. It might take a long time to produce a book, but it's definitely worth it if, after that time, you have your 6 or 7-figure asset.
3. The best route to take? Self-publishing, traditional publishing, or hybrid - it depends on the individual’s goal.
