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

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

Once you've got your goal, the next step isn't to figure out how to hit it. It's to get excited about it. Dwell on the end result, imagine it, decide how you will celebrate it. Some of you are already doing this, and you can tell how it's working: Once your unconscious mind deeply understands what you want to go for AND that it will be a fun and SAFE destination, your reticular activating system kicks in and starts showing you paths you can take. Ex. You talk to a friend and hear how they got a 1000 pre-orders on their book doing reels, and you decide to try them. You get an invitation to a promo that doesn't quite fit your books, so you decide to run your own and invite authors with even bigger audiences than you to participate. You retake some of the book marketing bootcamp and decide to create a big boxset of your books with a more clicky cover, title and blurb....and 10x your page reads. (These are real examples. Also, there are many paths to take. So relax and know you have endless opportunities coming to you). So the steps are: 1. Set your goal: what are you going for in 10x-tober? (I'm shooting for 10x pre-orders). Any goal that stretches you a bit is good. 2. Get excited about the goal any way you can. How will you celebrate once you hit it? What are the benefits of hitting this goal? Once you've arrived, what will look like? Feel like? Taste and smell like? (Seriously, you can get all your senses involved. Your unconscious mind doesn't really understand language, but it does understand symbols, images, scent, sounds... All the sensory details we put into our books to make the world come alive for readers) 3. Do this until you're unconscious mind starts giving you ideas of how to hit your goal. We will definitely be covering more of this in the kickoff call and I'm confident you're going to hear some other people's ideas and get excited about them. If not, go back to step two. :) Use this post to tell me how you're celebrating and what hitting this goal will do for you. How will your body benefit? Your family? Your dog?

I'm at a women biz conference that's like burning man meets Tony Robbins but super feminist. It's great! They've had one guy speak (the only guy) and he just explained that when that little voice pops up in his head that's afraid he sets a fear goal. Hell show up and his goal is to try his hardest but to fail. Like a comedian who bombs but finds they survive--and from that moment they're free. We're about to do the 10k in 10 days challenge starting Oct 1 and I'll be posting some pre-work to prep you. Your first challenge: set a fear goal. What is something that is scary but inspires you? You get to set your own goal for the challenge, and Rachel Rodgers, the originator of the challenge, says you can pick a number that feels comfortable and increase it by 30%. But I'm wondering what is something that, if you ran toward it, would blow the doors off your life. What if you went for that? Knowing that you might fail, but then the fear will lose its power. What is that goal for you? 10k in 10 days. 10k preorders. Giving away 1k (or even 10k!!!!) ARCS. It doesn't matter the number, really. Only that it challenges you. We're going to support and cheerlead you no matter what. But what if you tried your hardest, fell short and realized you survived? Shoot for the moon, land among the stars sort of thing. What is that goal for you? Mine is 10k preorders on my December launch. I have no idea what exactly could 50x my current preorders ... Only that the rush of movement (emailing, posting, shaking my tatats on tiktok) will move my business forward. What about you?
