But nothing.<\/p>\n<p>No sales, except maybe from your mother and best friend.<\/p>\n<p>You realize you don\u2019t even know what to say to get readers interested in buying your book.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re planning to publish soon, you need to know exactly what to say to get readers interested in your book.<\/p>\n<p><em>Or maybe it\u2019s like this\u2026<\/em><\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ve been publishing for a while but promoting feels like a black hole.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019re doing everything, but you have no strategy and no coherent message.<\/p>\n<p>You post on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, Goodreads, etc. and are so tired you don\u2019t have time to write the next book because you\u2019re promoting all the time and constantly trying to figure out what to say next.<\/p>\n<p>I get it.

But actually, book promotions start with one of the most powerful yet overlooked methods to promote your books to your readers: what you actually say.<\/p>\n<p>Word of mouth still sells more books than any other promotional tool out there.<\/p>\n<p>And aspiring authors, of fiction or nonfiction: You can use this tool now. Promotions for your author career begins now.<\/p>\n<p>If you just state what you write in a way that generates curiosity, then you can get more people engaged with what you write. Ultimately, they will become your avid fans and book buyers. Bonus: All on a zero budget!<\/p>\n<p>What if you could you share what you write in one sentence and immediately know if your listener was curious, or not?<\/p>\n<p>Because once a potential reader is curious and wants to know more, then you can ask for her email for your newsletter list (you have one, right?), or if appropriate, invite her to your online home of choice (blog, website, Facebook page, etc.)<\/p>\n<h2>So, how do you generate curiosity?<\/h2>\n<p>You learn to talk about your story in a compelling and interesting way. You create an Author Branding Statement.<\/p>\n<p>There are four ingredients to constructing this concise, one-sentence description of your book.<\/p>\n<p>The goal of this workshop is for you to
