A writer breaks down seven categories of nonfiction books most likely to become bestsellers, based on research from their book Snow Leopard. The categories determine what readers actually buy and what publishers want to acquire.
If you want to write a best selling nonfiction book, then it needs to be in one of these seven categories, either personal development, personal finance, insights and thinking, leadership, case study or allegory, functional excellence or relationships. We did a whole study about what makes best selling business books in my book Snow Leopard. And our big takeaway was if your book doesn't fall in one of these seven categories, the likelihood of it becoming a best seller is very, very low.
