Whosoever Press // Book Publishing Companies // Learn These 3 Principles About Content Marketing to Make Your Business Explode in the Coming Year!

Written by: Nate Fortner author of “Success Requires Action”

When growing your business, do you find it hard to be found
online? Have you spent money to advertise online to get very 
little results, if any? If this is you, then you want to read this 
article to the end. I’m going to share with you 3 key principles 
to how we have grown our publishing company Whosoever 
Press Publishing and Printing to what it is today in only 6 
years worth of time.

Success in any business requires you to take enough action. I
recently read a great book titled, “Home Run Financial Planning,”
by Steve and Adam Straseske. In the book it said, “If you don’t 
take action, all the planning in the world is worthless. 
Intentions without action do not produce results.” I 
completely agree with this statement. I wrote a book a 
few years ago title, “Success Requires Action,” and I 
spoke about how I had grown my company with no 
money. The book was a hit with all who 
read it, so when I read this line in Steve and Adam’s book, it 
was just a reminder to me that success requires action.

The key principle I want to share with you is:
Success Requires Action!Regardless of the industry you
are in, you have to make the phone calls. You have to
send the emails and you have to show up. You can’t
sit in the office all day and expect people to just show
up. I wish it were that easy. I tried it that way for a
long time, and I about lost everything I owned. I
had a great product to offer people, and I paid the
money to open a store front here in our town. Did
the store front help my company? No it didn’t.
Within a year’s time, we had five people walk in
off the street. We lost money on the office after
paying rent. The one thing that propelled my
company to financial success was when I decided
to create a catalog of the products and services I could provide to business owners in my town. I printed hundreds of these 32 page catalogs on my home printer and stapled them together. I literally got in my truck and drove door-to-door speaking with business owners and managers asking them for their business. Of all the money I spent on marketing and advertising, nothing worked as well as being face to face with business owners. The point is, get in front of your target market.

We have spent thousands of dollars on advertising across Facebook, Google, YouTube, Twitter and other online platforms. All of these platforms gave us some type of return for our money. That is if you consider a LIKE on your Facebook page an legitimate lead. No, I don’t think so either.

However, I will say that out of all the online advertising we did, we always received a positive response from YouTube ads. Anytime we have ever ran a YouTube video ad, someone has called us. Did it always turn into a sale? Not always, but YouTube has generated us about $6000.00 within a six year span. The interesting thing about the sales we received wasn’t from the ads we ran. They were from people seeing the videos we posted. If I had to say there is a key #2, then it would definitely be this: Start posting videos on YouTube.

As time has gone on, we noticed we were spending a lot of money printing these catalogs. Even though they were generating leads and sales, we were spending way too much money. We were able to condense our 32 page catalog down to a single brochure. We placed our highest selling products in the brochure, and now we push people to our website. We just launched our new website in October of 2018. http://WhosoeverPrinting.com is the link to our print company.

Out of all the print companies in the world, why did we think it was a great idea for us to start another one? The answer is really simple to be honest. We have partnered with different print companies all across the United States. By doing this, we can take a loss on certain products to provide a better price to our clients. We have other products that we offer at a higher percentage that allows us to make larger profits, and on these particular products, we are still about 50% cheaper than other companies. What we have done with our print company is quite genius.

If you are a business owner and you have read the article this far, then you understand some of the hardships we have faced as a new startup. That’s why we want to offer you something special for your own business. I’m sure my now that you can understand what actually helped our company to take off. It wasn’t advertising, it was getting in front of people by the use of Content Marketing. Key Principle #3 is: Content Marketing is anything that can be created, physically or digitally and then distributed. Our catalogs and brochures are a form of content. The YouTube videos we create each week are a form of content marketing.

I want to offer you the deal of a lifetime. Here at Whosoever Printing, we have created a new program just for business owners who focus on content marketing to grow their businesses. We have just rolled out the LIFETIME PRINT PARTNER’S PROGRAM. This program is just for business owners. Any business who prints $1000.00 or more within a year’s time is eligible. If you know that you will spend that much, we don’t need to see proof. We can take you at your word. We set you up with a discount code that you can use on our website at checkout to save you 30% on every single order you place through our website. Once you check out our website and you see the low prices prices we are offering, you will ask yourself, “How can they print this cheap?” Probably a better question you will ask yourself is “How can they afford to offer us 30% off?”

We hope you will take the time to stop by and visit our new website. Create yourself a free account, and let us know how we can help you. If you would be interested in the LIFETIME PRINT PARTNER’S PROGRAM, give us a call at 256–706–3315.

Whosoever Press // Book Publishing Companies // Why Choose and Independent Publishing Company Instead of Createspace? Publishing Companies in Alabama (2018)

Why Choose an Independent Publishing Company Instead of Createspace?

Obviously, the publishing industry is changing. I remember growing up as a child in school, and when an author would come read to us, it was a well-known famous author. Those memories are still embedded in my mind like a scene from a good movie. A couple years back, I published a video on my YouTube Channel titled, “I’m Outraged at Self-Publishing Companies. I gave great information in the video, but I ripped off on how there were so many Vanity Press’ taking advantage of people. The video didn’t go viral by no means, but it definitely received a ton of attention. Many of the comments were screaming that I was another Vanity Press, while those who truly valued what I was saying wanted to know more information about my company. So, that got me thinking. Why would an author choose to pay an Independent Publishing Company to print and distribute their book, when the author could just go with Createspace? It would seem that the obvious answer would be Createspace or a similar online print on demand company.

Everyone has an opinion, and they are really good at voicing their opinions, especially when they are negative and disrespectful. Some will shout Vanity Press from the rooftops over a company taking money to publish a book. I’m still in awe that they think it should be free. You can’t go to the grocery store and demand free groceries just because you have an opinion. So what and who cares if your book was a failure? That doesn’t give you the right to discredit others and try to impose your negativity on them. The problem as I see it unfolding is that these naysayers are the ones who were too lazy to build their platforms, and when their books were discontinued, they blamed their publisher. Now that may or may not be the case, but before they start giving their opinions, I would like to see their royalty statements, their marketing plans and their events calendar. They are quick to point and judge, but when it comes down to producing real results, they have nothing to show except their loud mouth and disrespectful comments.

So why would a writer choose to pay to publish with an Independent Publisher vs. going with Createspace? The answer is truly simple. In today’s world of self-publishing, you really don’t need a publisher if…. The “if” is huge. If you have an established platform reaching to millions. If you know how to advertise and understand the techniques of proper marketing and branding. If you have a plan for distributing your book beyond your local bookstore. Of course Createspace will get you registered with Books A Million and Barnes and Noble, but they can’t get your book on the shelf; a publisher can! If you are an established author like Jk Rowling or Stephen King, then you could self-publish based simply on your name. The bare naked truth is if you aren’t someone like C.S. Lewis, Emily Dickinson, JK Rowling or Emily Dickinson, you need someone who can get you some attention. The reason you would choose to pay a publisher in today’s publishing industry is because of their contacts. The contacts of the publisher are what you want. You want to see what kind of memberships they have that will allow you discounts on products or services you are using. A publisher, in most cases has worked hard to grow their company, and along the way, developed many nice contacts in the music industry as well as the film industry. At least we have here at Whosoever Press. Many of our authors have been recognized on national radio and television show, and even one of our authors has made it to CNN news.

Back in 2013, we started working with Desert Wind Studios marketing a film they were working on at the time. Because of the work of Whosoever Press, when the film Premiered, it also premiered here in our local theatre. It was a wonderful experience because it opened a door for our authors to get their books in front of Movie Producers like Steven Camp and Josh Mills. The film Brothers Keeper featured actors and actresses like Daniel Samonas, Robin Lively, Country Music Singer Travis Tritt and so many more. This is why you would choose to pay to have an Independent Publishing Company like Whosoever Press publish your book instead of an online print on demand company.

Do your research and make sure you pay for connections, not necessarily just to be published.

Whosoever Press // Book Publishing Companies // What You Do Today, Will Keep You Paid Tomorrow

What You Do Today, Will Keep You Paid Tomorrow

Summer of 2016, I was at my parent’s house in West Virginia for a couple weeks. I did what work I could while I was there, but I was limited on what I could do because I didn’t bring any catalogs with me to distribute while I was in town. I decided I would utilize my Facebook page by messaging some businesses about what services I could offer to them. After messaging about 40 to 50 businesses, Facebook restricted me and wouldn’t allow me to message anyone else. Then, I had to get creative. I noticed on the About Page, that many businesses would list their phone numbers and emails. I pulled out a spiral notebook, and I started copying emails and phone numbers for a week straight.

On one side of my company, I work with coffee shops, providing them with custom printed coffee sleeves. I emailed about 900 coffee shops that week, and received very little response. I believe that what I do today, will keep me paid tomorrow. The more I achieve today, the more I’ll have tomorrow. After emailing those 900 coffee shops, it was 6 months later, when I received an email out of the blue requesting more information about my company. Out of 900 emails, we received one client, who we are now printing all of their sleeves every single month. One week worth of work in now producing recurring income every single month. Book Publishing Companies.

I make it a point to introduce myself to multiple new people every single week, because they need to know that my company exists. I grow my business, literally, one business owner at a time. At least 3 days per week, I spend a minimum of 2 hours per day walking into established businesses to introduce myself. While I’m with the owner or manager, I give them a copy of our catalog, so they can see everything that we have to offer. Many times, when I’ve not received an order on site, they call me later to place an order.

You can expect that what you do or don’t do today, will either pay you or not pay you tomorrow. Consistency is the key to long-term success.

Whosoever Press // Book Publishing Companies // What Candy Bars Taught Me about Growing a Business

What Candy Bars Taught Me about Growing a Business

I can still remember all these years later the taste of those $1.00 King Size candy bars we would sell for fundraisers in Middle School. I would sell every bar in my box time after time. During my Middle School years, I realized how quickly I could make some real cash selling treats to my classmates, so I started robbing the cookie jar at home to sell to the kids at school. I was one of the most successful self-made students in our school. Then, what really made my life change was the day I found a store that would sell the king sized candy bars six for a dollar. Of course, you know what I did. I took the money I had earned from selling the cakes I had robbed from the family cookie jar to buy candy bars. I also took out a small loan from my mom. I had an old box left over from our last fundraiser, so it was super easy for me to load it with candy bars. I literally sold hundreds and hundreds of candy bars until my box fell apart.

 Whosoever Press // Book Publishing Companies I learned at an early age that kids would pay good money for candy. The real lesson was, I learned how to sell. Since discovering my ability to make money, I have never stopped chasing the dollar. To stay afloat in any business, you have to produce a profit and sell tons of product. I remember when a kid would tell me they only had $1.75, but they really wanted two candy bars, I’d let them have a little credit. The next time, they’d owe me $1.25. The thing that I thought was funny though, was I making six times my money back selling candy bars. I could afford to lose a quarter every now and then if they didn’t pay me back. It came up once or twice that a student wouldn’t have the extra quarter or 50 cent, and I would tell them that I would cover them since they had purchased so many from me at regular price. They loved it, and I was still making killer profit.

Knowing These 9 Secrets Will Make Your Self-Published Book Look Amazing

First of all, the stigma is that self-published books are garbage books. I was once ridiculed on a phone call by a traditionally published author for giving bad writers hope. Self-publishing your book can save you a ton of money if you know what you’re doing. You must realize up front though, that you won’t have the support of a publisher, unless you publish through a self-publishing company.

1.     Professional Cover Design $300.00 www.99Designs.com

2.     Have your friends proof read your book in exchange for an autographed copy.

3.     Hire a good, but cheap Editor for your book from www.upwork.com

4.     Have bookmarks printed from www.WhosoeverPress.com and mail them to bookstores and libraries six weeks before your official release date promoting that people can pre-order from your website.

9.     Set up a booth at local festivals and flea markets promoting your book. You will be seen by hundreds and even thousands of people each week.
