Multiple Income Streams from Your Book
by J.Q. Rose
Your book is just the beginning of a new career for you. I had a "light bulb" moment last summer when I discovered D'vorah Lansky's website, Build a Business with Your Book and her amazing program for authors, Book Marketing Challenge. While the 30 day program emphasizes building your author platform, in the third week D'vorah opened my eyes to using a book as a springboard to new opportunities for enlarging your platform and earn multiple income streams. I was intrigued with the idea because I never thought beyond writing a book. I guess I was so focused on the writing, publishing, and marketing, I never thought about ways of making money with it other than selling it.by J.Q. Rose

Whether your book is fiction or non-fiction, here are some ideas to add some pennies to your piggy bank:
- Write articles on your topic for magazines and ezines
- Monetize a blog you write on the book topic
- Speak in front of audiences about the topic and you will be known as an expert. You may get paid for your speaking engagement and/or sell books at the back of the room.
- Appear in webinars/teleseminars as a guest or host experts/authors
- Interview on podcasts experts in the field
- Be a consultant or coach and get paid for it!
Have you tried any of these methods to build your platform and/or earn more from your book? Can you add to the list?

| Quick Tips on Vegetable Gardening: Starting Your Garden First in the series |
One of the ways to build your author platform is to have a LOT of great books in your list. So if someone likes your book, have one ready for them to come back to buy. The series idea works for fiction and non-fiction books.
I am trying this idea out by publishing an eBook series with my husband, Gardener Ted, on vegetable gardening. This is the right time of the year for sure. When I released the eBook on Amazon on Feb 15, 2015, the book was a top 100 seller in crafts/hobbies and vegetables categories. At this writing it is in the top 100 in the seasonal category. That is exciting!
