Creating Offers Hey, my self-publishing indie authors, do you want to take the next step to become a real authorpreneur? Of course, you do, right? Okay! This is what you do. You get better at creating offers. Too many of us just put our books and services out without a good offer. Or, if [...]
Facebook Ads Too many people spend good money and time to do Facebook ads and walk away with less-than-stellar results, my self-publishing indie authors. Many frown and say, “Well, that didn’t work. Boy, this authorpreneur thing is a tough business.” To have success with Facebook ads, it’s kind of like Stephen Covey, author of The [...]
Creating A Successful Book Prelaunch Writing a book and then launching a book is a big deal, right, my self-publishing indie authors? A successful launch will help us sell a lot of books so we can gain some ground in our authorpreneur world and really make a difference out there with our books and [...]
