Writing a book is actually cheaper than not writing one.
Everyone gets sticker shock when they hear:
“$40K–$50K to write and launch a book!”
But let’s do the math 👇
📕 One $20 book → lands you a single $20K speaking gig.
ROI: 1,000x your cover price.
📕 One book → positions you for a $200K consulting contract.
ROI: 4x the cost of ghostwriting.
📕 One book → builds authority that attracts 10 new clients at $10K each.
ROI: $100K from one asset.
And the kicker? That same book can fuel:
🔹 Months of blog + social content
🔹 A course or mastermind
🔹 A licensing deal or training program
🔹 A stronger exit valuation for your business
So when you balk at $50K, ask yourself:
👉 How much is NOT having a book already costing you?
The truth: A book isn’t an expense. It’s leverage.
Is your copy riddled with “I” statements? Do you catch yourself telling everyone around you “I do this” or “I do that” when describing your work?
