HOW TO PITCH YOUR BOOK IDEA TO A PUBLISHER HOUSE.
Lately I’ve received a few messages on ‘how to write a book’ or on the want/dream of writing a book.
I guess that those who dream of writing a book also dreams of having it published. So that’s what we’ll focus on today.
Thought I wanted to share a different yet powerful and memorable approach on how to pitch your book idea to a publisher house - and make them want you as their household author!
So here it comes: create a video based show on your book idea. Here’s how I did it with my latest book:
1. Download/buy Final Cut Pro
2. Write a synopsis beforehand on your book idea
3. Find some inspiration pictures that reflects how you want it to look/vibe/maybe pictures of the kind of readers/audience you want for your book
4. Choose a soundtrack that vibes with the identity/theme of your book
5. Record yourself telling about the book/presenting it
6. Upload everything to Final Cut Pro
7. Cut/edit it all together
8. Make sure for it to be maximum 10 minutes
9. Make the effort and spend the time on doing it, I know this is rewarded
10. You’ll also show other personal assets by doing this fx: creativity, being great at research and so on. + please add how you’ll do the PR for the book/the marketing/statistics on the theme/readers/audience and so on. Today publisher houses loves numbers (even more than the book idea itself, sometimes) and some of the publisher houses is even former advertising agencies.
That’s just the time we live in today. So if you’re serious about getting your book idea published, then you better keep up on the trends/tendencies. xx J
