If part of your marketing strategy is frequent guests spots on podcasts in your niche genre, should you invest in some audio equipment? If so any recommendations?

Your readers know you write, but what else do they know about you? The largest number of responses and follows have come from photos with me on various motorcycles. Although I don't drive, I ride "backpack" or "*itch", but it's a part of me rarely seen by my readers. I strongly recommend that you share your hobbies with your readers and potential readers. Connect with them on a deeper level to make them WANT to learn more about you as a person and as a writer. Happy connecting, my friends!

When it comes to investing in things for my business, I sometimes struggle to see how they will benefit me. For those of you who have purchased the Book Launch Kit, how has it helped you? What impact has it had on your book launch journey?

My book was just awarded a IPPY bronze award for cover design. I entered that category because I wanted my fabulous designer Domini Dragoone to get some recognition. But can I claim this as an award for my book as long as I also credit her?

I’ve got a kid’s book that should be ready to publish by the end of June and I will also have a coloring book published as an add on. I’m thinking about Select to try to land some reviews. I could see a world where I can hit 100-200 sales friends and family and I’d like to think 1/4 will leave reviews for me. I could be a little too optimistic…how early should I go Select? In my mind I want to move hard copies a couple of weeks before giving everyone easy access to get reviews and interest rolling…hopefully. Look forward to hearing everyone’s thoughts…
