Most authors write a book with big hopes. More credibility, better clients, more opportunities and more impact. Then they publish it, and very little changes. Not because the book is bad, but because it was never designed to do a job commercially.

A book can be one of the most powerful assets you ever create. But only when it is built with purpose, produced to a world class standard, and backed by a clear commercial strategy. Otherwise, it becomes an expensive trophy. Something you are proud of, but something that never truly earns its keep.

The Business of Being an Author has been written by Andrew Griffitths to give non fiction authors an extraordinary blue print to help them build a business around their book. 

Too many authors are never taught the business side of authorship. This book fixes that. Andrew Griffiths is a commercial author in every sense of the word. He has published 15 books, most are bestsellers, he has worked with traditional publishers and self published, and coached more than 1,000 first time authors to get their books out into the world. For decades, books have been a core part of his business model, helping build credibility, open doors, create opportunities, and attract quality clients.

This book brings that experience together into one practical, proven framework.

No hype or fluff or romanticising the process. Just an honest, detailed take on what you need to do to use your book to build your business. It’s full of smart strategy, practical wisdom, and a clearer way to make your book matter.

This book is for business owners, entrepreneurs, consultants, coaches, speakers, and experts who want their book to do more than just exist.

It is for people who want a book that builds credibility, strengthens their brand, creates opportunities, and contributes meaningfully to their business growth.

It is also for authors who have already published a book and know, deep down, that it never delivered what it should have.

Inside the book, you’re going to learn a lot. In fact Andrew holds nothing back, sharing everything he has learned from his long and successful career as a commercial author. A few of the key learnings include:

• Treating your book like the serious commercial asset it is
• How to determine if your book is up to the task 
• Developing a world class author brand that supports your business
• Creating the right product architecture behind your book
• Making leveraging a philosophy not an item on a to do list
• Working with media across all platforms to increase credibility 
• Learning who to collaborate with and how to collaborate with them
• Build momentum that lasts beyond the launch
• Think like a commercial author rather than a hobby author
• Developing your 10 year publishing strategy 
• Going from where you are as an author right now to where you want to be. 
• Over 150 specific tips sorted into the 12 drivers of business book success.

“Andrew Griffiths is the GOAT when it comes to the business of books. When I need straight advice about writing or publishing, he’s one of the first people I reach out to. Writing a book has been the single most powerful move I’ve made in my business and I couldn’t have done it without Andrew. Do yourself a favour and listen to every word he says.”

He draws on decades as a highly successful commercial author, and you feel that experience in every conversation. He’s practical, straight talking, and genuinely invested in helping you create a book that opens doors and delivers real commercial outcomes.”

Stacey Packer - Founder SP Consulting

“I knew I had a book in me, but I didn't really know how to turn what I'd been doing for 13 years into something that would elevate my business whilst demonstrating my expertise and experience. Andrew has an incredible knack of knowing exactly what the book should be about, how to hone it for your intended audience, and then to cap it all off - what you need to do, in what order - guiding you as gently (or as firmly) as you need to get it over the line. If you've got a book in you and you're not sure who would be the best to help to bring it to life, working with Andrew is an absolute no brainer - total game changer!”
