Just because you can, doesn’t mean you should.

A business coach shared that advice, and I’d like to add to it: And when you can’t do it (or don’t want to), ask for help.

With our help, we can make book marketing fireworks.

Focus on what you enjoy most, and we’ll keep momentum going.
Get infused marketing support when, where and how you need it.

We can help you sell a marketable book, build or grow a business and make your author emPact.

“Thanks for emPowering me. Now, can you help me make it happen?”

An author once asked this question, and since our commitment to emPowerment includes minimizing the confusion and overwhelm that can come with marketing for authors, our answer was simple: YES! We specialize in nonfiction author support and offer tailored Author emPact Intensives to help you achieve your goals. Whether you’re looking to build your platform, increase visibility, launch a marketable book or create effective systems for your authorpreneur business, we’ve got you covered. Let us handle the tactical marketing support while you focus on what you love most: writing.

How does an Author emPact Intensive work?

If you want hands-on, marketing support—and already have a Book Marketing Plan from us—our Author emPact Intensive will help you put your marketing plan into action.

Intensives offer concentrated, book marketing support and tactical execution and are focused on three cornerstone marketing efforts.
Prior to the Intensive, we gather information from you to learn about your specific needs, goals and success metrics.
Intensives allow authors to select three marketing projects from the list below and our team will execute them within a month’s timeframe.

We kick off our work with a strategy call and walk away with a tactical list of deliverables to begin executing.
Throughout the month, we will provide weekly updates as well as project-specific updates as they arise. A wrap-up call at the end of the month will allow us to discuss any next steps.
While the word intensive may feel… well, intense… it’s not! In fact, it’s meant to lift the book marketing burden and offer support where you need it most.

Tailor Your Intensive to Meet Your Needs

Choose three marketing topics from the list below to focus on. Whether it’s building your author platform, increasing your visibility, launching a marketable book, creating effective systems for your authorpreneur business or all of the above, we’ve got you covered. Mix, match and double up on topics to maximize your efforts. Together, we’ll create a customized Intensive to help you achieve your goals.

Is our Author emPact Intensive right for you?

If you have a Book Marketing Plan and are looking for support in executing it, then it very well may be! The marketing overwhelm you may be facing isn’t required for book marketing success. Remember, just because you can do something, doesn’t mean you should… in fact, maybe all you need to do is get some help from our experts.

You are an author seeking marketing support and execution from book marketing experts.
You are immobilized by what you should be doing and need help focusing your marketing energy on the most emPactful tactics.
You are seeking tactical and actionable book marketing advice, strategy and execution support.
You need help and now! You know that marketing will help you achieve your goals but you need help to make it happen.
You have specific marketing needs and are looking for trusted experts to not just coach you through it, but roll up their sleeves and help get it done.

You are not open-minded to receiving marketing advice to support your book and business needs.
You haven’t begun writing your book or don’t even have an idea kernel for a book.
You don’t believe in the power of marketing as a tool to help you sell more books or build and grow a business.
You are not sure of your author “why.” Knowing your why offers our team directional insights to best support you and your needs.
You aren’t worried about selling books or making a difference in the lives of others through your written words and derivative offerings.

I’m grateful to have crossed paths with Stephanie, and I look forward to our long and successful collaboration. The outcome? My brand is elevated. My social media collateral is professional and on-point. Click and engagement with the social media posts tripled. LinkedIn profile is optimized, and value is maximized. Social media redesigned for effective brand recognition. Speaker profile produced. Social media posts written and designed. I have folks let me know daily, they are enjoying hearing about my book – with more reading it every day. I owe so much of this to Stephanie.
