💥 It’s never too early to start marketing your book. Most people think marketing starts after the book is published. That’s already too late. If you’re even thinking about writing a book, here’s what you can start doing now: • Talk about your book idea on social media • Share what you’re learning as you research and write • Start building a small list of beta readers • Begin growing an email list early • Think about how your book fits into a bigger ecosystem 🔥 Your book shouldn’t be the finish line — it should be the front door. Before your outline is done, ask yourself: - What action do I want readers to take next? - Could this book lead to a course, a community, coaching, or a free resource? - How can this book collect data and build my audience? Personally, I add QR codes inside my books that send readers to opt-ins, resources, or next steps. That way, the book keeps working long after the sale. Highly recommend checking out @Jeff Baer and his community Skool Bio Profits he will hook you up with some custom QR codes! 👉 So even if: - You haven’t outlined yet - You’re still validating your topic - You’re at the very beginning Start thinking bigger than just “publishing a book.” Think strategy, ecosystem, and long-term leverage. Your future self will thank you. 👇 DROP IN THE COMMENTS WHAT YOU'RE GOING TO DO TO START GENERATING AWARENESS ABOUT THE BOOK YOUR WORKING ON
