Publish with Purpose

• Eager to turn your manuscript into a published masterpiece
• Ready to learn the secrets behind successful book launches
• Curious about how to optimize your book for maximum impact

So, you’ve written your book, now what? You’ve put your heart and soul into your manuscript, but how do you transform that into a published book that not only captures hearts but also finds its way into the hands of readers? Publish with Purpose is a method of publishing that encompasses publishing, optimising, launching, and promoting your book. The intent of this method is not just for you to ‘get a book on Amazon’ but to get your book out with the best possibility for it to succeed. The world of self-publishing is very accessible these days, but publishing without knowing how your decisions affect sales and reach is a common mistake.

A Guided Journey to Self-Publishing

At the heart of every great book is a purpose—a message, a story, or a concept waiting to be shared. Publish with Purpose is your roadmap to ensuring that your book sees the light of day and reaches the audience it deserves.

Publish

The journey begins with publishing, where you bring your manuscript to life as a book. But it’s not just about converting words into pages. It’s about creating an experience that engages your readers from start to finish. It’s about editing, proofreading, and refining until your manuscript shines. It’s about using knowledge of your genre to reach and engage your audience’s attention. The most important part of the process is to ensure you make informed decisions that align with your long-term vision. There are a lot of decisions on the road to self-publishing, and these decisions will be easier when you understand the complete publishing process.

Optimise

Before hitting the ‘publish’ button, your book should undergo a series of optimisation techniques. This involves making sure your book is not only well-written but also well-prepared for the market. This includes ensuring your messaging, details, description, cover, title, subtitle, keywords, metadata, and categories are consistent and optimised for reaching your intended audience and capturing their attention. Optimisation makes the difference from ‘having a book on Amazon’ to ‘hitting your intended audience on Amazon’. Mastering this step can assist in the exponential growth of your success.

Launch

Launching your book is an exciting time. But launching on Amazon, throwing a party and sharing on your socials isn’t enough. In this first launch phase, you want to spend the time to ‘teach’ Amazon about your intended audience. You can maximise the initial ‘honeymoon’ period that Amazon gives your book to build your BSR (Best Seller Rating) and behind-the-scenes indexing. You can assist your book’s long-term organic reach by maximising this period.

Promote

A book hidden on a shelf doesn’t make an impact. It needs promotion to thrive. In this phase, you’ll discover the power of marketing your book effectively. Our strategy relies on harnessing the potential of Amazon to master Amazon advertising; you’ll learn how to put your book in front of your target audience.
