(Exciting news below!)
Woohoooo Book Bosses! Today we are celebrating because we hit 170 members inside our new Book Boss Academy! And we've only been open since April! We are literally in the 2nd month of this Academy! How amazing is that! 🥳
WELCOME WELCOME NEW BOOK BOSS MEMBERS! 👋
....Interestingly, I was told by the greater powers who run this Skool Platform that at least 5-10% of members would join and then leave straight away! We have had a 2% churn rate so far we have only had 4 people leave us and of those people have been Book Boss Academy Competitors (coming to check us out and then leaving straight away!)
So this tells me that you are enjoying being a part of the Book Boss Academy and that we must be doing something right for you to want to stay!
I always thought it was going to be really difficult at first as we are literally building out this Academy as we go along so I was expecting a high churn rate to start with and for it to slow down over the back end of 2025 so I am really so so delighted that you all are staying with us and even more delighted seeing you all working on your book publishing journey too!
I just want to take this opportunity to really thank all you members who really engage and support each other and take a more active role inside this community - it's totally fine to take a back seat I've been there myself but it's really the people who show up and who take part and who share and interact and who help each other............... you guys are the superstars who really make this a place to want to be a part of.
So I am so so grateful to all of you! Our top 5 contributors especially are , , , and . Our 5 superstar Book Boss contributors! Thank you so much ladies for all that you bring to this Academy! I want to also thank our Book Boss Community Manager and our Co-working session Co-Coaching team , , and who show up every day of the week to run a live Co-Working / Co-Writing session for us all. These sessions are SUPER VALUABLE and they are such fun in terms of meeting our fellow Book Bosses too! Thank you! ________________
EXCITING NEWS
________________
So I also wanted to take this opportunity to share a little bit of news with you.
As most of you probably know - you all joined at what I call the founding members rate and this Academy, at the moment, is a "not for profit" Academy in the sense that I am re-investing any income from the Academy back into it. Coaching, training, templates, etc etc.
Last week I managed to purchase 200 new templates with 15,000 designs in total for the Book Boss Academy and I also have the authorisation to be able to allow you all to use all of the templates in your book creation process as a part of the licensing.
This is really exciting because it means that it will save you all so much time for those of you who wish to create journals and planners and log books and coloring books etc etc (low and medium content books) creating them is going to get a lot lot easier and quicker!
So over the next few weeks you will start to see me adding all of these templates into the Classroom part of the Academy here inside our Skool Group.

BOOK CAMP
____________
I will be hosting our next BOOK CAMP on Monday 9th June at 4pm UK time and this time our Book Camp is going to be all about creating notebooks and Guided Journals - I will also upload all of the templates to go with that theme into the Academy group at the same time.
The new Book Camp will take place LIVE over 3 days and we will aim to create and publish our Guided Journals and Notebooks that week too!
This is really great place to start for anyone who is new to Book Publishing!
I will be teaching you also how to turn a low content book into a medium content book which will in turn also increase your royalties! 🪄🤩🥳
I have other exciting news all about some FAST TRACK ACCELERATOR TRAINING I AM RECORDING for you all but I think this post/email is long enough don't you!
So I will save that other exciting news for the end of the week and keep you sat in suspense glued to your Skool screens waiting for the news for the next 7 hours! 🤭😜
For now...... I'd love you to introduce yourself inside the Skool group if you havent already. I love getting to know who our members are! And please be sure to familiarise yourself with the Tabs across the top of the Book Boss Academy namely the Classroom Tab, the Calendar Tab and the Community Tab.
You can also come and join the Book Boss WhatsApp chat and book reviews group and why not put your name down for a Book Buddy in our PINNED POST inside the Community Tab - posted by Janette!
Thats it for now Book Bosses!
All my love as always
Abbie (and team BB)
