About this episode
Jenn Hanson-dePaula discusses how authors can create a conversion system to effectively sell their books instead of getting lost in content creation.
You've downloaded the content ideas. You've saved the post templates. You're creating more content than ever before... but your book still isn't selling. Here's why: More post ideas without a system just creates more work. In this video, I'm showing you the conversion system you actually need - the three types of content, how to build an email list you own, and how to sell your book without feeling gross. Stop chasing random post ideas and build a system that converts. LINKS Get the 90-Day Book Sales System → Grab the free Book Marketing Blueprint →
