Kyle Jantjies, a 28-year-old author form Mitchell’s Plain on the Cape Flats has in recent years established a name for himself as a Fantasy/Fiction author. He is particularly admired for his prowess of writing books in record time. In 2021 alone, he wrote and self-published 9 books, one of which is a 7-part series titled Journey of the Soul.
As a self-published author Kyle needed to acquaint himself with the business behind selling books as well as marketing himself as an author and speaker in support of his book sales.
Drawing on his learnings of the past 3 years, Kyle has penned two books to help Speakers, Coaches and other Professionals who aim to elevate their business and establish themselves as experts in their field.
Book 1: You Book is Better than a Business Card identifies 20 reasons why a book is better and why every professional should make an effort to have one. It highlights case studies of individuals who have written books and used those books to elevate their business in different fields.
Book 2: The Book Business Card is aimed as Speakers and Coaches who have written books and want to use them to build their clients list on autopilot. It unpacks 5 major objections to why people haven’t written their books and why they should. Additionally, it covers a 4-step process to getting your book working for you in order to obtain leads.
“As a writer, I always try and write from my convictions, what I firmly believe or have research well – even if it is about creating a fictional world and fictional characters,” say Kyle.
“I had no idea, when I realised the power of books as a business card and lead generating tool, how well others would receive it as a piece of information they’ve been searching for,” he added.
Seeing the books climb the Amazon sales rankings day by day is something Kyle did not expect but is exceptionally proud of.
“The books were each written in two days, and I hope that I can once again inspire others to reach for that dream and make their skill work for them in a more creative way,” concluded Kyle.
