$97.00

I don’t want to email all of my friends again.

Talking about my book online is so embarrassing. No one responds.

How do I get followers on social media when nothing I have tried works?

Is there a way to grow my online community and author platform without looking desperate?

No one wants to promote themselves or their books. It is hard, embarrassing, and often feels like a complete waste of time. But it does not have to be that way. There are a few, small things you can do each week that will give you big results over time. It all starts with an understanding of how to find and connect with readers in a way that makes EVERYONE comfortable. This aspect of a writer’s career is essential. We both know that effectively marketing, selling, and promoting yourself and your work is inherently uncomfortable. But it does not have to be.

This live class offers a sustainable plan to find fans, grow your platform, and get reviews. The tools taught will help you develop the relationships you need to achieve both your creative and financial goals.

Whether you’re an introvert concerned about being too pushy and “salesy,” or a social gadfly with an established platform—this class will give you an actionable, individualized plan to embrace the business side of your writing career without getting overwhelmed.

Description

“This class was a gift not only to my career but to my spirit. As a writer who finds all things self-marketing to be anxiety-provoking, I appreciated Amy’s breaking down the intimidating into a plan of small, easily actionable steps. She is a generous teacher who inspires as well as she informs. This agentshelpingauthors.com offering is a not-to-be-missed learning experience for writers at any stage of their careers.

“This session made me realize I didn’t hate marketing. I just didn’t truly understand its power and how to personalize it to my needs toward those I want to reach. Now I can’t wait to get started on introducing myself to my audience and, equally important, get to know them.”

-Louis. H. Mitchell
