Synopsis

**Take a look inside the book here: https://my.w.tt/jgiltaxAIab **

In the world today, we see that the traditional narrative of “go to school and get good marks so you can find a good employer” is increasingly irrelevant advice for young people. Many know that this system is broken, but are reluctant to deviate because the challenges they face can be overwhelming:

1) Societal pressure: Lack of support from friends, family and mentors who stigmatize them as not being good enough to succeed within the system.

2) Too many choices: Not knowing how to differentiate between what they really want to pursue as a career and what’s a casual interest.

3) No immediate gratification: In the traditional system, young people have been trained to seek approval instead of to try, fail, and iterate multiple times before finding success. Suddenly without someone to turn to for answers, it can be difficult to have the required confidence to succeed.

These challenges are even more pronounced for high achieving, ambitious young people who show the most promise within the traditional system - as they often face the most judgment, are even better at seeking approval, and have even more potential areas of interest.

Aimless is a manual for learning how to navigate the current career landscape by following your inner voice. It offers a unique blend of spirituality, personal development and a candid first-hand account of a high-achieving-student-turned-dropout finding her own path.

Educating, entertaining, and enlightening - Celeste provides actionable information to help the reader reach the next stage of their life, with “Clues to Finding Your Purpose" included at the end of each chapter and a "Roadmap to Discovering Your Purpose" included at the end .

More than just a voice of support, inspiration, and encouragement - Aimless provides the guidance that young people need to turn their true life’s calling into a dream career

Sales arguments

  • Around half of young people feel their education has not prepared them for the world of work, with 20% citing lack of a clear career direction holding them back.
  • Potential to reach 1500 people through the author's social media and email channels.
  • 2 different guidance counselors have expressed interest in the book to purchase for their students.
  • Samax Amen, a cartoonist who created art work for the project agreed to help promote the book. His following: 200 list size, 4000 Twitter followers, 9500 fans combined on his Facebook art pages.

Similar titles

  • "Milk The Pigeon: A Field Guide For Anyone Lost in Their 20s" by Alexander Heyne (December 2016) - The book is dedicated to the subject of picking a career and following your intuition.
  • "Discover Your Purpose: How to Use the 5 Life Purpose Profiles to Unlock Your Hidden Potential and Live the Life You Were Meant to Live" by Rhys Thomas. Random House Canada (August 2015) - Similar on the idea of following your own inner voice and overcoming the expectations of others, with a spiritual bend.
  • "I Could Do Anything If I Only Knew What It Was" by Barbara Sher (Dell, August 1995) - Similar in providing practical advice for finding a rewarding career rooted in your heart's deepest desire.

Audience

Ambitious, high achieving 16 - 25 year old's confused about what career to pursue and the purpose of life.

Advance praise

"I love this book. I really resonated with Celeste and her quest to find purpose in this life. Many of us have grown up in a world where we were told we can be anything we want, just as long as it fits in with the status quo. We are told as long as we have a college education, we will always have a job. But academia never truly prepares us for the real world does it? This book was educating, entertaining, and enlightening. Celeste takes a real look at the world and who she wants to be in it and provides some very actionable information to help the reader reach the next stage in their life and their purpose. "

Dear Author,

You worked hard to write your manuscript; finally, it's ready to release. You know that expert assistance is needed, but perhaps you didn’t know that it’s no longer necessary to work with a publisher—especially publishers who charge fees to produce your book upfront and deduct more costs on the back end whenever a book is sold.

1106 Design is an author services company. We provide all the editorial and design services you’d expect from a publisher to turn your manuscript into a market-ready book—editing, cover design, interior layout, proofreading, eBook formatting, and more—at the traditional publisher level. Unlike a publisher, we’ll help you obtain print-on-demand printing and worldwide distribution in your name so that you earn, in most cases, several dollars more for every book sold instead of a measly “royalty.”

We’ll customize a package of services to suit your exact needs at affordable prices ranging from $4,000 to $10,000, depending on your manuscript's word count and complexity. And we’ll manage all the intricacies of book production, so you don’t have to. After this one-time investment, every penny of net revenue from book sales goes directly to you, never to us.

If this sounds like a better way to publish your book, I invite you to browse our services, design samples, no-surprises pricing, outstanding customer reviews, and educational articles at https://1106design.com.

1106 Design has been in business since 2001 and is rated A+ by the Better Business Bureau. We are a “Highly Recommended Expert” at IngramSpark.com and rated "Excellent" at Alli, The Alliance for Independent Authors, at SelfPublishingAdvice.org.

How can we serve you today?

Sincerely,
Michele DeFilippo, owner

Ingram is a rather large company with several different divisions and supplies books to bookstores and libraries in over 200 countries around the world. Ingram also has a print on demand digital printing company, Lightning Source. IngramSpark is the platform that combines those two services together. At IngramSpark, we work with authors and independent publishers to print their books for orders they need (no minimum order) and we have a way to list the books as available for sale to all of Ingram’s 39,000+ customers- distributors, bookstores, retail outlets, libraries, etc., so you never miss a sale. You would provide us with the print-ready digital files (one for the cover and one for the interior) and we print the books as they are sold through our distribution partner’s websites. We pay you for those sales approximately 90 days later. The compensation you earn is based on the retail price you set, minus the wholesale discount you offer our distribution partners, minus the print cost.
