We're going to keep talking about this in detail (and I hope to coach some of you LIVE on here around your fears about hitting the goal) but here's an overview: - set your goal (10x or increase an area of your business) - get excited about your goal (to program your unconscious mind that the destination is SAFE and FUN - Follow the nudges to do all you can do towards your goal - also expect the magic to kick in ;) My goal is 2000 preorders by Nov. 1st on my Dec 26th release. I've done that before so a real challenging goal is 10,000 total preorders total. But first let me get through October. 😆 I like to visualize the goal and also celebrate it to make sure my unconscious knows the end result won't kill me. I'm celebrating with a new candle, so I'll probably buy that NOW and light it every day and visualize the end result. We've done some mindset work in the Bootcamp already, and people could feel how once they relaxed and started to think about the possibilities, ideas and inspiration started dropping in their heads. That's why step 2 is so freaking important. My tactics: - incentivize my marketing team with a bonus if we hit 2000 Amazon preorders by Nov 1st. :D - test covers w FB ads - test blurbs w FB ads - test hooks on all social media using Author Scale - Test the best hooks as blurbs - Blast socials (Tiktok, Youtube shorts, FB page, FB group, Reels, Trial Reels) with the hookiest excerpts and taglines, also my newsletter and Patreon - Weekly plaintext newsletters with longer excerpts and only one link - Weekly fancy newsletters with giveaways and author swaps - Set up author swaps to push both the preorder and the book launch (I prefer to do swaps when the book is live and in KU, but I also want preorders now) - Run ads to book one in the series so I profit while getting more preorders on the new book - Try some sales on book 1 or even the rest of the series - Do a bookfunnel promo with dark romance authors only to increase newsletter subscribers - Multi-author giveaway to increase eyeballs - Any other idea my team or I come up with

Someone left a rave review of my most current book in a huge reader group. They have 2 million members or something insane like that. That book has done well for the last three or four days. I’m wondering if I can somehow boost the algorithm by doing an ad or something? It’s ranked around 6400. I’d love to get it to stick there for a while or even go higher. I did write on a post it when this book came out that it was going to be my breakout so I’d love to manifest that! Any advice would be appreciated

Hey everyone! I’m moving from BookClicker to https://theauthorswap.com for newsletter swaps. They have human support and automatic swap confirmation, so there’s no need to send screenshots to confirm swaps. You can also manage multiple pen names under one account, with unlimited swaps for $10 a month.

I am horrible at making graphics and posting on social media. Like I am so behind the times on what is even done. I only personally use BlueSky to chat. I spend no time on IG, TT, or FB (except to check out author grps). I don't like how it used to make me feel, so I stopped before TT began. But I created pages and want to try and utilize it for the upcoming challenge, and I don't know what to do. I know a Reel from a static graphic, and that's about all I know. LOL Is there a course, a workshop, a website where I can A. learn all of the different types of posts/formats with examples, and B. how to create them? Preferably something that won't cost me a grand. lol Thank you!

If you're feeling tired and grouchy about your career, do these exercises for a boost! Worksheets available in the class room under monthly calls :D Note... During this call someone asked if it was normal for them to get some ideas or glimmers of possibility or even have a plot point resolve. Yes! That is the point. Once you expand your mind, and move from fear to possibility, ideas and nudges start flowing in. Electrical activity in your prefrontal cortex (The part responsible for creativity) increases. That's how doing some simple mindset practices can transform the Arc of your career. Imagine every morning you have new ideas and a zest to bring them about. How quickly could you 10x your business? (We will find out in 10x-tober!)
