5 Key Questions Every Author Should Ask Before You Promote Your Book

5 Key Questions Every Author Should Ask Before You Promote Your Book

December 26, 20232 min read

As someone who's worked closely with several bestselling authors, I've seen firsthand the excitement and challenges that come with taking a book from concept to readers' hands. 

There's one crucial part of this journey I want to focus on today: promoting your book.

But before you dive into marketing your book, here are five vital questions to consider. 

1. Who is My Ideal Reader? Understanding who you're writing for and selling to is crucial. It's not just about age or interests but digging deeper into what makes your readers tick.

2. What Unique Value Does My Book Offer?  Every book has a soul. What's yours saying? What new perspective or solution are you offering to your readers? How will their life change or be different or better after reading your book?

3. How Will I Connect with My Readers? Building a relationship with your audience goes beyond just selling books. It's about creating a community of engaged and loyal readers. How will you capture your reader's information so you can nurture and serve them?

4. What's My Marketing Plan? Posting on social media and hoping for the best is like a shot in the dark. Do you have a strategic, step-by-step plan to reach your audience effectively? How will you promote your book? Do you know what strategies work best?

5. Am I Prepared for the Long Haul? Book promotion isn't a one-time affair. It's an ongoing journey. Are you equipped for it? Do you have all the right tools in place before your book launches?

Feeling a bit overwhelmed? Don’t worry, From Published to Profit is here to turn complexity into clarity and it's more accessible than ever at just $59 per month for 12 months. 

This lifetime access course isn't just about marketing; it's a comprehensive blueprint, distilled from the strategies of bestselling authors, to help you attract readers and sell more books beyond your book launch!!

If you're ready to step into a successful book launch and promote your book without the overwhelm, this is your moment.
