Workshops #1 - The Power of Relationships in your Book Launch
In a fast-paced world full of loud distractions at every turn, your book launch can sometimes feel overwhelming! We're going to get back to basics while also leveraging the latest and greatest in marketing - and it all starts with people.
Relational equity is one of the biggest assets to you and your writing! Learn how to leverage your relationships and keep them central to your book marketing strategy to launch your book without feeling sleazy and slimy.
We'll walk through ways to maximize your launch marketing plans, build FOMO around your book, and build your personal brand in the process - all using your very own network!

Workshops #2 - Harness Launch Momentum and Sell Your Book for Years!
“How can strangers discover your book?
As an author, you need to write well, publish well, and market well. And while it’s tempting to feel accomplished with a published manuscript, without marketing, your book isn't finished.
The great news is that much of your work in researching, writing, and publishing has prepared you for this crucial part of the process! You just need a few new tools to apply what you know to launch and sell successfully in the long term.
Join us for a half-day event where you will learn to leave an impact before, during, and long after your book launch. Boost book sales during its debut and for years to come.
End at 12:30pm
Grab a new friend. Continue a conversation you started two sessions ago. Maybe invite someone you just sat next to to join your group. Wherever you are in your writing journey, it's time to eat and share some time with your fellow writers. Enjoy.
