Free Ghostwriting Guide: Energize Your Autobiography Now
Ben Carson. Robert Kiyosaki. Anne Frank. Nelson Mandela.
These names are famous ones that you must have heard somewhere. Ben Carson is a world class neurosurgeon (now retired), Robert Kiyosaki is a respected investor, Anne Frank is a tragic victim of the Nazis and the late Nelson Mandela was a South African freedom fighter who later became the first democratically-elected President of post-apartheid South Africa. These names, however, all have something in common – famous autobiographies that told their stories to people.
Why Do You Need an Autobiography?
People write their autobiography for different reasons. Some of these reasons are;
- Storytelling: There are people who write their autobiography in order to tell their own original stories themselves. The autobiography can be a story of their humble beginnings, their early life challenges and how they managed to overcome these challenges to become a successful person. Others use it to tell an original story about the origin of a famous organisation they started, their struggles with a particular sickness or how they overcame a socio-economic or socio-political challenge. Whatever story they are telling, however, you can be sure it is original and not fictional in anyway. If your plan is to write a original story about your life and your struggles, an autobiography is the way to go.
- Expert Positioning: You know how they say no one will toot your horn unless you toot it first? It is true for your business, sports or political achievements, and any other achievements you may have under your belt in any field. Writing an autobiography about your life and these achievements is important to position yourself as an expert in any field. A real estate expert in lending, fixing and flipping, or real estate wholesaling, for instance, needs an autobiography to introduce themselves to potential clients. People trust more in you when you have a certified book that describes your expertise in a subject. If the book does well, it will pay for itself in book sales and still serve as an important marketing tool for you. The best win-win situation if I have ever seen any!
- Branding: As a business owner, politician, sportsperson, entertainer or company, no one has to explain branding to you. It is the foundation your identity is built on. What is the best way to explain a brand and the reason around that brand better than a good autobiography? That way your fans, clients, customers and potential investors can believe they know a little bit of your story and the motivation for your branding. A good autobiography is the best introduction you can hope for before you set foot in a room.
- As a Genre: Autobiography as a genre is another fascination on its own. Writers, like other artists and creatives, have different preferences on how to tell their stories. An autobiography sometimes is the best way to write an original story. This time, it is meant as a book without any other motives.
In the first three reasons, you will notice that the people who need autobiographies are successful people in their various fields. A well known fact about successful people, after all, is how busy they always are with their works. When they are not working, they are relaxing or spending times with their families. Hence, you are busy with no extra time to write. Even if you are not busy, not everyone can write effectively. That is not a shame on you, writing is an art. You are good at what you do, and we are good at ours.
Thus, it is essential that you find a ghostwriter who can write your story the way you want it, in your voice and in the angle you want it.
