Write for Ambition, not Problems | Ep 282
from CarTalk with Kartik · host Nitin Kartik
Are pain points enough to make your book a bestseller? That's the question one of the CEOs I collaborated with asked me recently. As a 2X bestselling author featured on BBC TV & Times Square and named one of the Top Consultants of the Year by Product Marketing Alliance, here's my answer.Most CEOs focus their book on problems. But that is not what makes a book stand out. Bestselling books connect to something bigger. They tap into your reader’s ambitions, their identity, and the future they want to create.When your book speaks to where your audience wants to go, not just what they want to fix, you move from being informative to being unforgettable. And that is what drives authority, demand, and ultimately bestseller status. So write for ambition, not problems.This insight comes from page 178 of my book Product Marketing Wisdom - which just completed 65 weeks on the Amazon bestseller list.
