Send Marti a text message HERE!
Welcome back to The Rebel Maker Podcast and welcome to the second solo episode of the podcast. I promised to have more 1:1 conversations with you and I’m delivering. Today we’re going to talk about the difference between traditional publishing and self-publishing.
There are so many different publishing models out there that it’s hard to decide which one is for you. That’s why today I’m sharing a few things you need to know so you can make an informed decision about how you want to publish your book.
In this episode:
- [02:18] The traditional model: the first publishing company I worked with
- [05:19] The advance and how it works
- [06:28] Royalties and how much money you can make from the sales of your book
- [08:39] Marketing and building your audience
- [10:22] Intellectual Property Rights and what it means to sign them away
- [15:21] How Rebel Queen publishes books and what makes us different
- [18:30] What it looks like to work with Marti
