Hello!

This is Jaime from EventualMillionaire.com :)

I was contacted by a few literary agents and I'm in the process of choosing one. They both want a book proposal ASAP (which is very exciting!) and one of the things I need to do is talk about my platform and reach (because I need to show the publisher that I have reach)

 

The book talks about my paying off $70k in debt, and building a lifestyle that I love. Plus it goes over all of the characteristics of the 60+ millionaires that I've interviewed along with their stories.

 

If the book is picked up we are looking at a 2013 launch date.

I would LOVE to send you a book if you are willing to help me promote it. I'll also do an interview or even a Yakezie webinar to help give your audience really great content too.

 

I would be forever grateful!!

 

Feel free to either comment here, or email me at jaime@eventualmillionaire.com

 

Blogging is amazing, I never thought I would get contacted by a literary agent (from big agencies too!)

Congragts!! That's huge :) I just went through that process with my agent and I have a book slated for around that time too. My biggest piece of advice is make sure the proposal shows how well you can position/market your book. That's what editors are looking at to see how well your book can potentially sell. That's what the agents and potential publishers are going to want to see. Also every word counts in the proposal as well. Your sample chapters don't have to be perfect either so don't stress too much about that. 

I'd be happy to help and participate in any way possible! If you have any questions or concerns about the process let me know too. I'm at the tail end of being signed by a publisher right now so I know how overwhelming the process can be.

Congrats, Jaime! 

 

I definitely be down to help especially if you return the favor with mine, that is when I actually get it done!  Laugh

 

Not sure if you're planning on writing your own book proposal, but I recently just hired a writer to do mine.  It was much easier to outsource!  :)

 

She only charged $250; so, for me, was totally worth it.

I have been out straight and just returned to this post, OH MY THANK YOU SO MUCH! Such an overwhelming response.

Thank you guys so much :)

 

I will of course come on any of your shows, do any interviews for your blog etc. :)

 

Also I'm headed to Portland OR to speak at the World Domination Summit (Chris Guillebeau's conference) – I'd love to meet up if any of the Yakezie members are going! :)

 

Again, I can't thank you enough, and I'll probably be emailing you in the future with more details.
