Until very recently, you had one choice if you want to get your book in the hands of readers: traditional publishing.

But today, traditional publishers are no longer the sole gatekeepers. You have a lot of options when it comes to publishing your book.

Wondering whether it’s worth it to pursue a deal with a traditional publisher, or whether you should take matters into your own hands and strike out on your own publishing journey?

According to HubSpot’s visual content marketing statistics for Jan 2016, today’s web users interact and are much more attracted by visuals than in the past, and marketers strive to give visual assets a more prominent role in their strategy.

This is not only about compelling images to accompany blog posts or interesting infographics. Video has become an essential asset in a blogger’s and a marketer’s toolbox.

Certainly, writing is easier that making videos – video is not just about words, but also:

– Image
– Body language (if the speaker appears in the video)
– Tone of voice
– Confidence projected
– Credibility
– Minimal elements of distraction
– Visually appealing and convincing content

All these elements come together to create an overall effect that pushes the viewer to act upon the content.
