And a nation weary of the Clinton Royalty (Mama, Papa, Baby, Grandbaby Bears) is willing to get energized about a possible Warren run.  Elizabeth Warren is a fresh face in Presidential space.   The forces behind let's-think-beyond-Hillary are effective in planting the seeds of this developing story. Or at least we can credit them with that, whether they are reponsible or not for the return of Monica Lewinsky. This time she seems more credible.

  A wannabe author puts an ad for ghostwriting, offering as compensation a share of royalties.    To bring in any royalties it has to be published by a big brandname like Sarah Palin or really dish the dirt like THE POLITICIAN.    Otherwise it's unlikely to yield any royalties at all.    This month I will find out from The Dilenschneider Group what royalties came in from AMA HANDBOOK ON PUBLIC RELATIONS.

She walked on stage to Dancing Queen by Abba, a self-deprecating reference to her dancing antics during her Africa visit in August. She then made jokes about her speech from last year's Tory conference, when she was plagued by a cough and the backdrop behind her fell apart

  As for compensation, what is offered is "share of royalties."  The odds of an author without a brandname publishing a book that makes any money are slim.    Yet, there are still help-wanteds on Craigslist which request writing assistance.  "  How do so many become so out of touch with the changes in an industry?

Last week I tweeted this idea and it sparked a mild debate about which was more important – content or presentation style. So let me preface this post by saying you MUST be good on stage. Marcus Buckingham is a great example. He knew right out of the shoot how to be engaging and funny on top of great content. Because of that (a few bestsellers and being a hotty didn’t hurt) he rocketed up the fee ladder very quickly.

Speaking after an acrimonious meeting! I had been a public speaker for almost a decade before I encountered a group having a really heated business meeting just before I was due to speak to them. It was a men's luncheon club and it took me by surprise. That evening I had another booking, this time for a women's institute, and their discussions also turned out to be very argumentative!

For instance, they had branded their website as an extension of their royalty. The financial types weighed in and calculated not using the brand will cost the two entrepreneurial types plenty.

Boston Magazine reports that her salary had been $429,981. In addition, through side hustles she also picked up: $90,000 as expert witness in antitrust case. 43,938 as consultant in asbestos case.   That woman attracts money.

They only pay royalties when books sell and leave almost all of the marketing up to the authors. In 2009, 76% of all books released were self-published, according to Publishers Weekly. Since then, the industry has all but stopped keeping stats. The number of self-published print and e-books continue to grow exponentially while the number of books issued by traditional publishers declines.

I think it’s the best value in royalty-free images around. This week I worked with a client who sells dust protectors for computers and one slide said that his products offer 24-hour protection. It was an important concept to visualize because of the emotional impact. People are afraid to lose their data (dust is one of the top reasons that computers fail) and 24-hour protection makes them relax, knowing that their data is safe from dust.

Similarly, some cultures based on a caste or creed-based system can result in some people being given the status of ‘royalty’. Many people claim to be experts at something they are simply not good at. Despite this, they can claim to be exceptionally good at the task.

With royalty for first-time authors between 6% and 10% of the net receipts, the total amounts to about $1 per book going to the author. Someone like Scott Berkun , author of Confessions of a Public Speaker, makes an average of 5k per lecture, with 60% of his total income(about 60k a year) coming from speaking fees, and roughly 40% (about 40k) from book royalties from his 3 successful books.

Writers retain all rights while earning 60%–80% of the list price as their e-book royalty. According to Publisher’s Weekly : Ten years ago, e-books accounted for less than 1% of the trade book market. Today, e-books account for about 25% of dollar sales and 40%–50% of units. Although the rate of growth has slowed for e-books, the affordability and accessibility of digital will continue to erode print readership. In addition, indie authorship has become a global cultural movement.

That adds to the royalties I receive from syndication. BusinessInsider, co-founded by former Wall Street player Henry Blodget, has become a must-read, at least among business people. Blodget wants to expand that to a broader audience. One objective is to attract more purchasers of sponsored content, that is those native ads which are inserted among the articles by actual journalists. So, BusinessInsider, reports The Wall Street Journal , is rebranding as Insider.

Mid-level authors already know that the era of large advances, generous royalties, book tours and media spots are over. They have to spend their own time and money to create a website and publicize their books. Publishers just don't have the resources to offer them full support. The Internet, online bookstores, e-books, and an economy in decline are cited as some root causes of the steady slump in the traditional publishing industry.

Aside from its value in tourism, British royalty is an expensive anachronism. The force which has kept it going has been the "firm's" leader Queen Elizabeth II. Singlehandedly, she had preserved the royal brand. And, she has served longer than any other British monarch. Obviously, there's plenty to learn from the Queen's ability to manage public perception. Here are 4 lessons: Maintain Persona. Never has the Queen let down her guard in public.

The heroism of John McCain and the talent of Aretha Franklin lifted us out of preoccupation with politics and an economy which seems too good to be sustained. To keep us moving toward hope we need 1 wedding. But who measures up to be able to provide the needed traction by joining together, legally, with another human being?
