For the last several months, I have talked about using checklists and how they can really help you in your business.
Even when I am doing something I know well, I can become distracted and miss a step. This can set me back quite a bit depending on what I am are doing.
Checklists can help prevent that and keep you on track and save you time (and therefore money).
The latest set of checklists from Kevin Fahey is on Self-Publishing. These apply to digital and physical products and covers different publishing platforms.
This set of checklists was created in conjunction with John Mulry. John is an award winning, trusted marketing advisor, speaker, and multi Amazon #1 bestselling author with a unique, deep knowledge that spans both online and offline direct response marketing.
He has self-published best-sellers for himself and his clients and knows how to fast track the process and turn an idea for a book into a passive income generating machine.
The first 4 checklists focus on getting your book created.
The next few are on marketing and uploading your book to various platforms.

I have gone over these checklists and the quality is excellent. They cover things that I would never have thought of when publishing a book.
Sample Checklist from the Interactive Checklists
Here is part of the Book Cover Checklist as an example of the sort of things that are covered.
Cover Design
For your back cover we recommend you state the book category at the top, then have a headline, benefit driven description of the book, 5-7 bullet points, a testimonial, and a short bio on you along with a photo, your website and the book barcode. For resizing your cover, and spine to fit the number of pages in your book and to generate a barcode for your book we recommend you use www.bookow.com It’s free and instant. You simply enter your book details and hit generate.
As you can see, you get all the steps you need to take and some helpful hints and resources.
You also get the specific steps for publishing on Amazon and Lulu.
Just about anyone with an online business can benefit from publishing their own book. If this is something that interests you, check out Vol 10 Self-Publishing Checklists while it is still at the discounted price.
