ADVICE

Market To Make An Impact

  • Market your book intentionally because publishers rarely market for you; sales require active promotion.
  • Treat the book as a time machine and transporter: get it into readers' hands to make the intended impact.
ADVICE

Launch Team, Newsletter, Social

  • Build a launch team, collect emails via a newsletter, and post book graphics and quotes on social media.
  • Recruit fans to share the launch so initial sales and visibility accelerate your success.
ADVICE

Make The Payoff Clear In Title

  • Make the title and subtitle clearly communicate the payoff for the reader and the book's benefit.
  • Prefer positive, simple, and benefit-focused wording that quickly tells readers why to buy.
