Sold by the Millions by Louise Lightfoot,Amit Sarwal Pdf

Australian genre fiction writers have successfully exploited the Australian landscape and peoples and as a result their books are today “sold by the millions” across boundaries. They have created stories that are imaginative, visionary, and diverse. They appeal to local and international readerships and, most importantly, are thoroughly entertaining, thus making them a strong presence in the popular fiction bazaar. Sold by the Millions: Australia’s Bestsellers is the first collection to concentrate on Australia’s best-selling material that forms the armchair reading of many Australians. Leading experts of popular fiction provide introspective pieces on Romance, Horror, Crime, Science Fiction, Western, Comics, Travel, Sports and Children’s writing so that a wholesome picture emerges of the wide range of reading and research options available for scholars.

How I Sold 1 Million Books! by Amit Offir Pdf

Why did I write the book? Over the years many people approached me and asked for me to help them in writing books and selling them. After talking with authors, experts in different fields and publishers, I understood that there is a large gap between the knowledge of a professional in the book industry and the basic misunderstanding of a "fresh" author that dreams about publishing his book, and is willing to pay a high price for it. The "fresh" author would have not paid such a high price if he had studied the subject and not just signed any contract with the publisher. The publisher knows that in most cases the cost of publishing a book will never be returned to the author, because the author has no knowledge about selling books, the publishers rely on their expertise, knowing that it is almost impossible to earn money by selling the books and it is a lot easier to get paid by the author and not just the sales. This is how the publishers started to convince the authors, saying that making profits from the books should not their main goal, but that the author usually is searching for the authority and putting their personal seal. With time the publishers started to convince the authors that this is the right method instead of looking for other ways in which the authors could earn money from their books, in addition to all the other benefits that a book can offer its author. As a creator and someone whose main interest is to earn a decent living from my creation, I tried to harness my creative thinking in developing methods and technics to increase my books sales. Over the years I began to share the correct and desirable methods that I discovered with authors and publishers that wanted to leave the circle of excuses and enter the circle of successes. In this book I collected the best of my notes to help as many people as possible to spread their knowledge around the world, maybe even change the world. If you are holding this book in your hands I gather that you want to learn how to progress and advance further in your career and in business. I appreciate you for this and it is immaterial how much knowledge and experience you have managed to acquire until now. One of the things you have probably already figured out is that the ability to learn is a virtue associated with successful people. Without the ability to learn ability mankind would not have survived at all and we would have probably already been extinct millions years ago. This ability to explore and develop led mankind to unprecedented records that were broken time after time by using creative thinking, belief, research, courage and initiative. Without these qualities we would not have come to fly to the moon, to invent the light bulb and to communicate with someone on the other side of the globe. As social creatures, the desire to help each other and assist by using the knowledge we have accumulated is apparently ingrained in us, in the same way as a father desires to save his son from the mistakes that he himself has experienced. On the other hand, the desire to learn and develop is ingrained also in people without experience who are constantly busy with the attempt to prove that they are the ones who will succeed where others have been wrong and failed. These two sides of the coin are the forces that to my mind cause evolution to occur. Here is some advice that will help you to make the best of the book and to use it effectively. That is what you have come to learn, so why not start being effective already at the start of using this book? In the book you will learn methods and techniques that will help you to sell more. The best way to use it is by reading each method separately, highlight the parts with a highlighter and write down comments and insights while reading. If reading the book brings a good idea to your mind, write it in your notebook and return to it later on.

You Are Awesome by Neil Pasricha Pdf

We are lucky. For most of us, famine, plague, economic depression, and other life-threatening catastrophes are the stuff of history books. We’re living in an era with the highest-ever rates of longevity, education, and wealth. Cars drive us home as our phones entertain us before we arrive to food delivered to the front door. We have it all! But there’s just one side effect. We no longer have the tools to handle failure...or even perceived failure. When we fall, we lie on the sidewalk crying. When we spill, we splatter. When we crack, we shatter. We are turning into an army of porcelain dolls. A rude email from the boss means calling in sick. Only two likes on our post means we don’t have friends. Cell phones show us we’re never good enough. Yesterday’s butterflies are tomorrow’s panic attacks. Record numbers of students have clinical anxiety. And what about depression, loneliness, and suicide? All rising! What do we desperately need to learn? RESILIENCE. And we need to learn it fast. Read You Are Awesome to learn: • The single word that keeps your options open after failure • What every commencement speech gets wrong • 3 ways to dramatically accelerate your ability to learn and adapt • The 2-minute morning practice that helps eliminate worry • Why you need an Untouchable Day (and how to get one) • and much, much more... Because the truth is, you really are awesome.

The Million Dollar Bakery by Rebecca Hamilton Pdf

I'm Rebecca Hamilton, the founder and owner of a million-dollar bakery called Chick Boss Cake, the #1 bakery and dessert spot that all the locals in southwestern Ontario are obsessed with. I know what you're thinking: she must be highly educated with some kind of fancy business or baking diploma. Well, I'm not. Sorry to burst your idyllic bubble, but if I did happen to be armed with the "proper" education or "ideal" upbringing, I wouldn't be writing this book because, well... that never makes for a great story now does it? No one likes to read stories about prestigious, silver-spooned Harvard-educated know-it-alls who achieve success via entitlement and the birth canal of their rich mother. Nah, the best success stories come from someone like me. Allow me to explain... I dropped out of high school at the age of sixteen to move out with my (then) boyfriend. I never set foot in a college or university unless it was to attend a party when I was (very) underage. I got stuck in several unhealthy and abusive relationships and found myself in plenty of "what the fuck?" situations along the way. I was angry, depressed, stubborn, riddled with anxiety and basically a runaway freight train trying not to go off the rails. I'm here to keep it real and share my personal story of how I built a million-dollar bakery business from nothing but pure grit and tenacity when no one else believed in me. Let's be real: If I can create this much success with a little bakery in small-town Ontario, Canada, I absolutely know for a fact that you can create the same level of success within any industry! This book is for everyone who's been through the worst and is still here against all odds. It's for the woman who lost her voice but knows the world needs to hear what she has to say. It's for the wife who pursued a career that society made her feel was the only respectable option. It's for the girl who settled down too soon instead of chasing her wild and crazy dreams that everyone laughed at. It's for the entrepreneur-at-heart who shows up every day to their soul-crushing 9-5 job feeling unfulfilled instead of pursuing their passion and igniting the fire within. This is the story of how I created the life of my dreams, and there ain't no sugar-coating it (bakery puns are essential in this book, for obvious reasons). Get ready to open your mind to endless possibilities and unlock your potential. Shit's about to get real.
