Author Support
Writing books is hard work, and marketing them can feel even harder. As an author of multiple award-winning non-fiction books I understand how just hard it can be.
The good news is that with over 50,000 sales, 15 foreign translations, and 7 awards, I have leaned how to make the process easier.
Based on this experience, I offer specific advice and services to published and aspiring authors. If you are writing a book, or have written a book, I may be able to help you achieve your book and business goals.
Take a look at the list below, and then schedule a free 30 minute call to discuss how I can help.
Writing books takes effort, but it doesn’t have to be painful.
Get started the right way for you
If you are starting your writing journey, it can feel overwhelming. You may be thinking “Where do I start?”, “How do I know I’ve got a good topic?”, “How do I tackle this huge task?”
I offer support to people starting the journey of writing their business book. If you would like help on any of the topics below, let’s talk. You can set up a free 30 minute call to discover how I can help.
- Picking topics and getting started
- How to efficiently create book content
- Getting paid before the book is finished
- Turning online courses into books

Book production and publishing
There’s more to creating a book than just putting words on a page. The amount of “other stuff” you need to know can feel overwhelming.
If you’re struggling with any of the following topics, I can help. A short conversation or two can demystify these things and help you move forward with confidence.
- Amazon vs Ingram vs other routes to market
- ISBNs
- Category and Keyword strategy
- Pricing
- Book description writing/editing
- Distributing digital books outside Amazon & Ingram
Book Marketing
So you’ve got a book, now what? Book sales don’t just happen. It takes consistent time, effort, and money to drive sales. The good news is there are many ways to market and promote your book and some are both cheap and easy.
As with most things, the more you put in the more you get out. I work on a 1000 day marketing and promotion plan for each of my books to give them the best chance of finding their way into readers hands.
I help authors with the following topics
- How to make your book famous
- Creating social content from the book
- Amazon ads (I’ve sold 10,000+ books using ads)
- Book awards
- Podcast guest appearances
- 50+ methods to promote your book
Get the most out of your book
A book by itself is just a stack pf paper on a shelf. But there is so much more you can do with your book. A few of the ways I help authors get more value from their book include:
- Re-purposing book content into other formats
- Turning a book into a course
- Turning a book into a speech and/or training workshop
- Using the book to get speaking gigs
- Using speaking gigs to sell books
I love helping authors, but I also like to pay the bills. Prices for my help and advice cost $300 per hour. If that sounds like a good investment to make creating a book easier take the next step to book a free 30 minute call so we can get started.
