Top 10 Tips to Keep Your Launch Team Motivated
Your Launch Team can be a fantastic way to help jumpstart your new book with quality reviews and strong word-of-mouth exposure. In fact, it’s one of my three favorite tools in a book release! I’ve shared my experiences with my team during a recent book launch in this post. (My team rocks, by the way!)
But keeping your Launch Team strong as you continue to release new books can take a bit of care and nurture. To help, here are some practical steps you can take to keep your team motivated! Read the rest of this entry »
The Doors are Open (for a short time)
Just wanted to give you a head’s up that I’m putting together another small group for my Group Coaching Course!
I have 5 spots open, so let me know quickly if you’re interested! Since you’re part of the blog family, you get a 10% discount. 🙂
Below a little about the course, but you can see all the details HERE.
Take your book marketing to the next level by learning the top 5 tools of book marketing and how to apply them to you and your books.
Topics include:
- Grow Your Email List into a powerful tool
- Build an effective Launch Team
- How to get more Amazon Reviews
- How to find and work with Influencers in your target audience to widen your reach
- Create an effective Launch Plan
Through this 10-week course, you’ll receive in-depth training, actionable feedback, and built-in accountability to help you succeed in each of these areas. If you’ve ever wanted full-access to pick a book marketer’s brain, this is it. With the extended time-frame of the course, you’ll be able to implement what you learn each step of the way, getting answers to questions that arise during the process. The group format makes this course a favorite because of the chance to hear answers to questions you didn’t even know to ask!
Format: For each topic, you’ll watch a 30-minute instructional video at your leisure, then we’ll schedule a group video chat after to answer your questions and develop your action items. As a bonus, we’ll have a Facebook Group just for this course, so authors can bounce ideas off each other and collaborate as we make our way through the course.
I’m planning to begin the course at the end of May, but can adjust the timing if necessary.
See all the details and register here.

This year I’m doing something different to promote my books…
One of my goals this year is to be more intentional with each book launch.
A nice part of being an indie author is that you can do a “soft launch,” which means you hit the Publish button on Amazon, then send a note to your email list about the new book and move on to write the next one. It’s nice to have that flexibility, but honestly, it’s effective only in maintaining a ho-hum writing career.
When I did my annual review of book sales for 2017, I noticed a very interesting trend. The books where I did a full launch for the release have sold a significantly higher number of copies per month, even after the launch. Almost 50% more, in some cases. Read the rest of this entry »
