How to Make Yourself Indispensable, Slightly Immortal, and Lifelong Rich in 18 Months! On the surface it looks simple: writers write something, speakers speak something, they fit it into a niche... This description may be from another edition of this product.
Gordon Burgett lays it out succinctly and with healthy realism. This is a great example of a niche marketed book. He walks the talk. What this book describes, above all, is how to shift your thinking and see the possibilities to make more money from writing and speaking. A lot of people who want to be self-employed as writers or consultants fail because they don't market themselves effectively. This book will either excite you if you are open-minded about selling your stuff based on the presence of a market for what you know, or it will repulse you with it's mathematics and analysis. At the end of the day the artist-writer would prefer not to know there is no market for his book. Niche Marketing is for the pragmatist - the man or woman who needs to make money from writing and speaking and is willing to adjust to the demands of the marketplace. This book shows you how.

I have Gordon Burgett's other Niche Marketing book and found both books very helpful. He packs lots of advice in his books and speaks from personal experience. I also have one of his audio tape series. I have enjoyed all of his products very much.I highly recommend this book, as well as his other one on niche marketing.John DunbarSugar Land, TX
Some typos-but excellent information

O.K. I've attended several seminars of Burgett's, so you could consider me a fan. I own several of his books--most of them baught from the back of the room--and this is my favorite one. His writing style, like his speaking style is to the point and personable. This book is a little rough around the edges--some typos, less flowing writing style--but the information (and I hope that is why you are considering this book) is sound, useful and inspiring. He followed this plan and it has worked very well for him.
