I know most of you are still in your writing phase, and getting everything put together, but let's not skip thinking about how to promote the book before it's published. Pre-launch marketing isn’t extra work it’s how you: - build momentum - attract early readers - start an email list before day one Here are 3 things you can do right now, even if your book isn’t finished yet 👇 1️⃣ Talk about the problem your book solves on social media - the struggle your reader is dealing with - common mistakes they’re making - small mindset shifts or “aha” moments This is how you start building your audience. Do a challenge where you post about problems and solutions within your niche for 30 days or more. You don't even have to mention the book yet. If people relate to the problem, they’ll want the solution when your book drops. 2️⃣ Start collecting emails early (even with a simple freebie)This can be: - a short checklist - a 1-page PDF - a few journal prompts - a “coming soon” interest list Start setting up a funnel now, and thinking about how you can grow your audience. Those videos you spend time creating in step one get those followers off your socials and into your email list. How do you do that? You give something away, a quiz, a checklist, a custom GPT. Your goal isn’t perfection — it’s ownership. Social platforms change. Your email list doesn’t. 3️⃣ Consider a pre-launch podcast tour to share: - why you’re writing the book - how your book will help people - give an estimate of your launch month and say you're looking for early readers. This is a great way to build trust and collect reviews quickly when your book comes out. People love rooting for something in progress. When they feel part of the journey, they’re more likely to buy. 📌 Reminder: Books that sell well usually don’t start at launch — they start before launch. 👇 What is one activity you will choose start doing right now to grow awareness of your upcoming book?
