How can you secure a book contract from a publisher?

• It’s not about having a great book idea.
• It’s not about writing a literary masterpiece.
• It’s not even about knowing the right people.

The real secret to securing a book contract is knowing how to write a powerful, compelling book proposal that leaves agents begging to represent you—and publishers eager to sign you.

Dear Fellow-Author,

My name is Michael Hyatt. I am the former Chairman and CEO of Thomas Nelson Publishers. I also served as a literary agent for six years, representing numerous bestselling authors. I am also a New York Times bestselling author myself with seven books to my credit, including my most recent, Platform: Get Noticed in a Noisy World.

I know what it takes to get a book contract. I know what it’s like to have a book published by a traditional publisher. I know what other doors open when that happens, including the opportunity to impact tens of thousands of people—and be rewarded handsomely for it.

It’s really not that difficult—if you know the secrets I reveal in my two ebooks. I show you what it takes to secure a book publishing contract, whether you are writing a non-fiction book or a novel.

Secrets for Non-Fiction Authors

In Writing a Winning NON-FICTION Book Proposal, I reveal how to:

• Write a killer query letter that gets the agent or editor to actually read the proposal.
• Get the publisher’s attention in the first paragraph.
• Answer the three questions every publisher asks next.
• Create a unique selling proposition that explains what the reader will gain by reading the book and how the book will deliver it.
• Distinguish between benefits and features—and why it is essential that you do so.
• Identify your target market in such a way that the publisher can visualize the exact opportunity your proposal represents.
• Understand the difference between demographics and psychographics and why both are important.
• Identify specific affinity groups that will help you—and the ultimate publisher—maximize the sales potential of your book.
• Assess your competition and explain how your book will be different.
• Explain why you are qualified to write this book—even if you are a first-time author.
• Demonstrate what you are prepared to do to help market your book.

In addition, I explain how to write a chapter-by-chapter synopsis of your book and the six elements that should be part of any sample chapter you include.

I wrote the first version of this ebook several years ago. It has become the de facto standard in the publishing industry (check the endorsements from literary agents in the sidebar on the right). It has enabled hundred of authors—just like you—to secure a book publishing contract.

Secrets for Fiction Authors

After years of requests, I am also pleased to offer the fiction version. In Writing a Winning FICTION Book Proposal, I reveal how to:

• Understand the four elements your fiction proposal must include.
• Write a well-crafted query letter that leaves the agent or editor begging for more.
• Compose a compelling “hook” that conveys the premise of your novel in nine sentences or less.
• Identify your target genre in such a way that the publisher can visualize the precise market for your novel.
• Explain why you are qualified to write this book—even if you are a first-time author.
• Avoid the three items you should NEVER include in a fiction book proposal.
• Convey the “story arc” of your novel in one page and avoid the mistakes typically made by amateurs.
• Include just enough of your novel to prove that you can write but not so much as to make reading it too daunting.

You Take ZERO Risk

I am so confident you will be satisfied with my ebooks, I offer the following guarantee:

What could be fairer than that?

So far, I have sold thousands of these ebooks. Yet I have only had a handful of refund requests. Nonetheless, the offer still stands. Why? Because I don’t want you to miss this opportunity to secure a publishing contract and experience the life-changing impact of becoming a published author!

Why These eBooks Are Unique

Yes, there are other books and courses on how to write a book proposal. Mine aren’t the only ones. But I do believe mine are unique for three reasons:

1. I am a published author. I know what it’s like to get rejected—and accepted—by agents and publishers.
2. I am a former literary agent. I have sold hundreds of projects to traditional publishers. I know what it takes to get a publisher’s attention and get five, six, and even seven-figure offers for my clients.
3. I am a former publisher. I know what it’s like to receive thousands of proposals a month. I also know why a handful of these grabbed my attention and caused me to reach for my checkbook.

When it comes to getting a book contract, you need someone with experience to guide you—not ivory tower advice or theory. You need a slam-dunk, sure-fire way to get your proposal noticed.

What Is Your Time Worth?

Some friends suggested I should charge $30–50 for these ebooks—not based on the page count (after all, non-fiction ebook is only 32 pages long and the fiction eBook is only 28 pages long), but on the specialized information they contain and the RESULTS THEY HAVE PRODUCED for so many authors. “This is a minuscule investment,” they argued, ”compared to the results these ebooks produce.”

However, I decided to offer these e-books for just $19.97 each. I may raise the price later, but for right now, I would rather make these ebooks available to as many people as possible at an affordable price. In addition, if you are considering both fiction and non-fiction, you can buy both ebooks for just $29.94—a $10.00 savings!
