I want to make this community as valuable as possible for you—not just the classroom, but everything happening inside this group too. So I’d love to hear from you… What are you currently stuck on, struggling with, or wishing you had more support around that you’re NOT already getting from the classroom? It could be anything like: - Getting your book idea nailed down - Actually finishing your manuscript - Covers, formatting, or publishing steps - Keywords, categories, or getting your book seen - Marketing, ads, or generating sales - Turning your book into more income streams Or something totally different. Drop it in the comments 👇I’m reading everything...and I’ll use your feedback to shape future trainings, workshops, and support inside this community.

Most people think publishing is the finish line. It’s not—it’s actually just the beginning. If your book is sitting on Amazon without a next step for your readers… you’re leaving money and opportunities on the table. 📅 Tomorrow at 2:30 PM Central We’ve got a live event you don’t want to miss. We’re joined by Shannon Boyer, who’s going to break down how to turn your book into a top-of-funnel asset that keeps working for you long after someone finishes reading. Inside this session, you’ll learn: - What happens after someone reads your book - How to guide readers into your world (without feeling salesy) - Simple ways to turn readers into leads, clients, or community members This is the missing piece most authors never think about. 👉 Check the calendar and make sure you’re there live—everyone is welcome!

@Michael Wish my niece and nephew are going to have a hoppy easer with your books, no candy this year!

💰 Did You Know You Can Sell Your Author Copies on TikTok Shop? Yes… and it’s a BIG opportunity 👀 Last year, I personally generated about $14K in book sales just by selling my Amazon author copies through TikTok Shop. Here’s how it works in a simple, real-world way… First, you’ll need to set up your TikTok Shop account. I’ll be honest, this part can feel a little frustrating. The setup process hasn’t always been the smoothest, but once you’re approved, you’re good to go. If you haven’t done this yet, I’d start here. Next, you’ll want to order your author copies from Amazon. I usually recommend starting with around 50 copies so you have inventory ready to fulfill orders. Once your books arrive, you can list your product directly inside TikTok Shop and officially start selling. From there, the real work begins...and that’s content. You need to be consistently posting videos about your book. This doesn’t have to be complicated. You can do talking head videos, faceless clips, voiceovers while flipping through the pages—whatever feels easiest for you. What matters most is consistency. The more you show up, the more opportunities you give your book to get discovered. When it comes to shipping, I personally handled everything myself. I bought envelopes and labels, printed out customer information, and shipped each order manually. It’s not glamorous, but it works. There are third-party fulfillment options out there, but I wouldn’t recommend jumping into that until you’re seeing consistent sales, since it can become a bigger upfront investment. I got so busy with engaging the community I paused on TikTok Shop this year, but I’m planning to bring it back into my Q2 strategy because the opportunity is still there. Curious… does this inspire you to open a TikTok Shop and try it for your books?

Today I wanted to share a very valuable lesson, and it's basically a life hack if you want to do some keyword research for your book. ➡️ If you feel completely clueless when it comes to learning how to do keyword research, instead of guessing, you can actually use a competitor book to leverage AI to help you understand the keywords that the competitor book is ranking for. Check out this simple example prompt. 👇 I am planning to write a non fiction book about stock market investing. Here is a competitor book https://www.amazon.com/Stock-Market-Investing-Beginners-Step-ebook/dp/B0FKJSJBX4/ Give me a list of 25 potential keywords for me to research and let me know if you think there is opportunity in this topic for a new book to make money. --------------------- 1. Tell AI what type of book you're planning to write and what the book is about, or a general topic that the book is in. 2. Give it a URL to a potential competitor book that already is published on Amazon. 3. Ask for it to give you back a list of 25 potential keywords. 4. Ask for it to also give you feedback if there is opportunity in this topic to make a book on Amazon. 🔥 So once you have that information, what do you do next? This is where I would then leverage the power of Publisher Rocket to look up several of these keywords. You don't want to overuse keywords. You want to strategically use keywords. You want to find keywords that have higher search volume and lower competition, and that is what Publisher Rocket will help you identify. My rule of thumb is to only select three main keywords for using in your title and subtitle. Use the keyword with the largest search volume as your title and use two supporting keywords in your subtitle. 🚀 Run the prompt and let me know in the comments below how it went for you, or share a screenshot.
