How to Add 'Bestselling Author' to your Resume`

As authors, this is the ultimate goal: to be able to add the words, 'bestselling author' to our resume`'s. Well, while it's not impossible, it does take much effort from you as the author. You have to believe in yourself enough to know that earning this title is well within your reach. Here are three things you need to consider doing to help you achieve the status of, 'bestselling author'.

1. Study other authors that have become bestsellers. What are their habits? What do you see them doing on a consistent basis that you are not?
2. Revamp your marketing plan. What are you doing to get the word out about your book? Perhaps a simple tweak to your plan could help you find an untapped audience.
3. Explore all the sales channels. Your book is your product. You have to look at your book as a product that must be sold and look at all the areas of which you could do so.

You as the author have the power to take your book to a totally different level. You simply have to make the decision on just how successful you want your book to be.

Until next time,
