FastPencil Offers Ghostwriting Service To Thought Leaders
By Anna Johnson on February 21st, 2010If you’re a thought leader eager to write a book… without actually writing it… FastPencil’s Thought Leadership Book Program might be just the ticket.
Internet marketers have long known about the various ways to get something written, without actually writing it. Making an audio recording and getting someone to transcribe it and/or hiring a ghostwriter comes to mind.
But unless you’re willing to invest in a high calibre ghost writer, the end-product can be disappointing. Ironically, it might be good enough to sell as a $97 ebook but not good enough to sell as a $19.70 book at Barnes & Noble!
FastPencil, it seems, has the solution: a quality ghostwriting service specifically for CEOs and ‘thought leaders’ for those wanting a quality book written.
FastPencil, which runs a self-publishing service, has launched its Thought Leadership Book Program to:
“help CEO’s and today’s business leaders to write a quality book that will establish and solidify their credibility with customers, prospects and partners.”
FastPencil, which promises to deliver a bookstore-quality thought leadership book in 90 days, will provide you with a personal book authoring team (ghostwriter, editor, cover designer and producer) to manage the entire book writing process, along with full print and ebook distribution services to Amazon and elsewhere, and even social media promotion services.
While FastPitch doesn’t charge upfront fees for its usual self-publishing services (it derives a revenue share instead), the company will negotiate the fee for its Thought Leadership Book Program on a case by case basis. It’s unlikely to be cheap. Then again, the company is promising a high-quality book so it may well be worth it.
Of course, as we discovered when my husband’s book ‘Keep Your Kids Safe on the Internet’ published – and as anyone who knows anything in the book publishing game knows – getting the book written is the easy part. It’s getting (a) distribution and (b) publicity that really matters…
