Do you struggle to promote your books and find lifelong readers? Do you ever feel awkward when you talk about your books to others or show up on social media to post about your book…but you draw a total blank?
I feel your pain. I’ve been there—stressed, overwhelmed, barely sleeping and spending wayyyy too much time on trial and error. I went through all that so YOU don’t have to. Over the years, I’ve perfected my book launch marketing strategy and figured out what works and what doesn’t… and now, I want to share this strategy with you.
The techniques I’m going to share in this training have singlehandedly helped me, as an indie author, achieve #1 New Release in broad categories on Amazon during the preorder stage, as well as holding the #1 Best Seller slot in those same categories long after the initial launch. I’ve been able to implement these strategies and create conversation around my books to generate major pre-launch hype and book sales… all without the marketing forces of a big publishing house.
Whether you’re a traditionally published author or an indie author, you’ll need to promote your book and create hype to attract lifelong readers. That’s what this training is all about.
We’re going to cover…
- finding where your readers hang out and making your book the “hot topic” in their space
- nurturing a loyal fanbase of readers who will get hyped for everything you release
- creating promo posts that stop scrollers in their tracks
- my proven strategies for connecting with influencers in the reader community and gaining wider exposure for free
- building a dynamite ARC team that will provide high-quality, positive reviews
- generating pre-order floods to push your book up in Amazon rankings

success tools for building a professional brand around your book launch
There’s so much to cover here, but I’m going to hold your hand through it all, one step at a time, and show you strategies that I have never shared anywhere else. I want you to be able to use these same tools to make your book launch as successful as it can possibly be.

Meet Your Instructor
My name is Abbie Emmons I teach writers how to make their stories matter by harnessing the power and psychology of storytelling, transforming their ideas into a masterpiece, and creating a lifestyle that makes their author dreams come true.
Story isn’t about “what happens” — it’s about how what happens affects and transforms the characters. I believe that there is an exact science (a recipe, if you will) behind a perfect story. And if you know what ingredients you need, you can create your own perfect story with ease and confidence. That’s what we dive deep into with each live training – and if it’s something you’re into, be sure to subscribe and expand your writing journey with these powerful trainings!
