Do you know that choosing the right type of book to write is absolutely CRUCIAL for the success of your book?
?
Yet, so many people put little to no effort into this.
?
That's why, in this article, I'm going to share with you 4 types of non-fictional books you can write!
?
The first type is...
?
1. The Authority Book
This type of book is the most popular among business owners who want to use their book to generate clients, cash and credibility.
Especially popular among coaches, speakers, consultants, practitioners, business owners, and service providers.
While you'll definitely share your journey, experiences and stories, you will focus more on creating a 'How to' book that genuinely helps the reader move forward in a specific area.
The whole purpose of the Authority Book is to position you as THE expert in your field, demonstrate how you work, and guide a portion of your readers to become clients of your core or premium offers.
?
So, if you're running your own coaching, speaking, consulting, or any type of business you want, this is the perfect choice for you because it's going to help you attract more clients and scale your business quickly.

The second type is...

2. The Quick Tips Book
This is probably the EASIEST book to write and makes a great project for experts and business owners who want to create a quick-to-write and quick-to-read gift book for their audience.
Dog Trainers, Parenting Experts, and Fitness Coaches are just some of the niches that work well for this type of book.
If you want to give your clients some quick, helpful information - then this is the book for you! Not as powerful at generating clients as The Authority Book, but a great place to start.

And the 3rd type of book is...
3. The Legacy Book
This type of book is perfect for you if you already have a large audience and raving fans of your personal brand and is an ideal 2nd or 3rd book.
The content in this type of book is all about your personal story or the story of someone you know or someone who's close to you
You'll share your personal journey, along with lessons learned along the way. For example, if you’ve gone through something in your life and want to share it with others so that you can help them, then a Legacy Book is for you.
Often authors will share their experience of overcoming a health, relationship or personal issue.
Many people want to leave their legacy in the world, and this book is the perfect type of book for them.
This book will create a deep connection with your readers, however, is not the strongest option to bring you, clients.

4. The Hybrid Book
?If you've gone through all 3 types of books above,? and you're still not sure which type of book fits you best because your book idea falls into 2 or 3 types, then the Hybrid Book is perfect for you.
