Why I Created Book Sales Accelerator

There are 3 things I wish I could share with every author who is disappointed with their book sales:

  1. Your book won’t sell if no one knows it exists (even if it is the best book ever written!)
  2. Yes, book marketing IS your job.
  3. No, book marketing does not require joyless slaving away on social media if that isn’t your jam.

The truth is, there are many ways to market a book. Your success simply depends on you finding the way that will work for you.

That’s why I created the Book Sales Accelerator – to help authors uncover and implement a book marketing plan that feels doable (and, dare I say it, joyful!), aligns with your values, fits in with everything else you’re already juggling, and most importantly, improves book sales.

Book sales really do matter

Most authors I speak to don’t care too much about making money from their books. Sure, it would be nice. And covering costs is preferable so they can afford to do it all again. But they are not motivated by money. Perhaps you can relate?

But book sales matter for several other reasons.

  • Sales tell you that your books are reaching readers, which is the whole idea, right?
  • Sales prove to friends and family that writing is worth your time and effort.
  • Sales mean that you can start to believe in your own abilities as an author. And maybe even, one day, have the confidence to quit your day job…

The one metric that matters

Forget Likes on Facebook or a new TikTok follower, book sales are the bottom line that tell you if you’re doing book marketing right.

And of course, without book sales it’s difficult to get reviews, which are the next best indicator that you are writing great books.

I have been working with authors for the past 5 years. I know that most are looking for a simple, repeatable system that they can follow long-term to grow their readership and sell books.

They’re not looking for hyped up get rich quick schemes or shady practices that promise to make you a millionaire with just one book. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

And they’re tired of running in circles chasing every shiny book marketing tool that comes along and failing to make it work for them in the way it seems to magically work for others.

That’s why I created Book Sales Accelerator to be a 6-month 1:1 deep dive that’s tailored to each individual client. It provides support and accountability every step of the way, so you can find that book marketing system that’s going to work for you and drop everything else.

And full disclosure, I get a real kick out of getting to know my author clients and cheering them on as they put into action everything they learn and start to see real results!
