I've been getting a lot of book marketing questions(which I love). I know I gave general answers but there's only so much time and the books I recommended will help you SO much and you can go through them at your own pace without having me rush through it. Many of these questions I will be making full-length videos on, and I'm hoping it will better help you with your marketing efforts. I've added creating a marketing plan for book launches on to my video list and it might be a few parts but it's something I'm asked a bunch so that video is coming soon! I think that will help you make you create a solid release plan to push your book and have a successful launch.

Sorry for missing last week's Q&A, my internet connection was laughable. The good news is I have no more camping vacations planned until next year, so you're gonna keep seeing this face. Whoop!

Make sure to go check out @DavidGaughranon Youtube! He created his channel in the last few months so go follow him. He's super knowledgeable and is no BS, plus I could listen to him talk all day with his accent. I also appreciate his honesty. It's easier for me to share what he's already put together because I pretty much agree with everything he says (which doesn't happen much in this industry! Too many scammers out there trying to rip you off or lead you astray.)

His blog posts contain a wealth of knowledge. As I mentioned, I've paid thousands of dollars to learn the things he's willingly shared for FREE. If you go to his website and scroll down his blog posts are broken up by categories.

Side note: it's worth enrolling in his FREE course too. The info he shares, I've seen people charge $397-$997 for.

The books of his I mentioned in this video:

They're all great! Trust me when I say don't recommend many marketing books when it comes to self-publishing because most people don't know what the hell they're talking about. David, on the other hand, does. Can't recommend him enough. Probably could've done a video on why you should download all of his books, read every single blog post, do his free course, and sign up for his newsletter, but oh well.

ALSO, I DO NOT KNOW HIM. I just want to make that very clear. He's not my friend or someone I'm trying to help sell. I've just read his books and blog posts over the years. This isn't a buddy push, just a personal recommendation that I would stand behind.

LOL, David if you read this... thanks for sharing so much information. I've been self-publishing for 6 years (recently quit my job to write full-time) and can't recommend your website/books enough to people at all different levels. THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU DO!
