7 Reasons to NOT Hire Ghostwriter Joshua Lisec

7 Reasons to NOT Hire Ghostwriter Joshua Lisec

Here are 7 reasons to NOT hire ghostwriter Joshua Lisec in his own words:

  1. You're not willing to write a commercially viable book. Publishing is a multi billion industry. I've been here for awhile, having ghostwritten 40 books. This industry, regardless of category, rewards books written with the market in mind, the person who's going to be reading the book. This industry punishes self-directed, self-absorbed books.
  2. You don't care how well the book sells. One author told me he didn't care if his book sold 3 copies, he wanted it written the way he wanted it written. I use the most advanced premium SEO tools and scan thousands of reviews to see what the most common feedback is so you write a profitable book.
  3. You're looking for a freelance ghostwriter or even a free ghostwriter rather than a guide to publishing success...who happens to be a ghostwriter. What does it look like to work with a guide? Someone who's been there and done that when the stakes are highest. I've ghostwritten books for celebrities who appear on national television every day, keynote speakers, entrepreneurs, supermodels, influencers, billionaires, founders and executives, seven-figure marketers, men and women at the top of their industry, and ordinary people whose extraordinary actions made them household names. Why do I tell you all this? Because as a celebrity ghostwriter, authenticity is everything, and reputation is everything; if you're at the top of your game, you get it. You need to be the real deal while also reinforcing that you're the one and only expert
  4. You don't mind if the book doesn't sound like you wrote it. Some people will hire a ghostwriter for a book, and pay them $500 bucks. The person copies, paste, and tweaks the Wikipedia entry. I know they do this because in my ghostwriter training program, I've had to untrain several ghostwriters on book writing
  5. You want an employee, not a mentor. Dilbert creator and Loserthinkg author Scott Adams recognized my book writing expertise. The upside is that with a mentor, you don't have to sit in front of your computer wondering if anyone's going to like your work. Skip the negative self-talk.
  6. You don't have a process or framework, and you don't want one. In nonfiction, we take the hero's journey, too. The world is looking for tangible hope, not hypothetical help. Nonfiction in any genre must take people on a journey from ordinary to extraordinary.
  7. You believe good enough is good enough. Some people will transcribe your interview, remove the uhs and ums and false starts, and call it a book... And they get one-star reviews because you wasted readers' time and money and also your own. What ultimately appears in your book, in my process, goes through 7 steps -- information-gathering, structuring, ghostwriting, substantive, developmental, line, copy editing... And after that comes proofreading, citations, reformatting, etc. I go into this process with an attention to detail, even to the point of choosing a single word over another because of its hypnotic effect on your reader's subconscious mind.
