Writing a book isn’t easy.
Whether you’re writing the book yourself or paying someone to do it for you, book writing takes time, expertise, and effort.
That’s why ghostwriters exist isn’t it?
I’ve been ghostwriting books for almost six years now. Writing a high quality, well thought out, professional book has never taken me less than 6 months.
The average is around 10 months.
You can certainly get a book written in less than six months, but when the process is rushed, quality and personalization are sacrificed.
As we all know, good quality costs money.
Ghostwriting is no different.
When you want a book written well and professionally, you’re paying for a ghostwriter’s time, unique skillset, and expertise. The higher quality the writing, the more experienced the writer.
Of course, what a ghostwriter charges might not always reflect their skillset and experience.
An experienced ghostwriter will have:
- Ghostwritten at least 5 books
- Be response and effective in communication
- Refined their book writing process
- Write books in a specific niche/area of expertise
- Won a few writing awards (for their own writing or books they’ve ghostwritten)
Price point can help you determine the level of experience of a ghostwriter but it is important to know what to expect at each price point so you are getting the most value for your money.
