The Ghostwriting Industry Is On Fire
An inside peek into this booming vertical, and why you need to dive in now
Seems like not too long ago, ghostwriting and ghostwriter were two foreign words.
Almost weird to hear, and even stranger to call oneself a ‘ghost’.
Nowadays?
Everyone wants in.
Some stats that will blow your mind:
1. Plenty of traditional publishers admit that about 70% of their books were ghostwritten
2. Close to 99% of all books published by artists, celebrities, and politicians were ghostwritten
3. Approx 82% of the population wants to write a book
But it’s not until you break each of these down that you realize how quickly ghostwriting industry is really growing:
1. Plenty of traditional publishers admit that about 70% of their books were ghostwritten
This is an impressive stat at face value.
