Course Description



I asked Amy to create this course because, as an author, book coach and book ghostwriter for many book authors, I found that the really tough part of the book experience is around getting your book sold. I've been asked more than 200 times in the last decade, "What's my ROI going to be for my book?"

The simple answer is, It depends.

Why?

It's because the effort you put into your marketing and sales initiatives, especially for your first book, will set the stage for all of your other books. That's why I love Amy's gift to you with her courses. Amy shows you how to get your book out into the world, get it sold and get you writing and publishing even more books. For anyone who loves to write, this is good news indeed.

This Course

Here, Amy shares with you, first through a video tutorial and then with downloads you can use to hire, direct, and leverage your book selling efforts. This course made a big difference for my marketing efforts and I know it will for yours.

Amy Collins started her career in the book industry as the book buyer for Village Green Books in Rochester, New York. In 1996, she became a National Account Rep for Prima Publishing. In 2001, Amy was named Director of Sales at Adams Media in Boston and quickly rose to the Special Sales Director for parent company, F+W Media. Over the years, she has sold to Barnes & Noble, Target, Costco, Borders, Books-A-Million, Wal-Mart, and all the major chains as well as helped launch several private label publishing programs for the book chains and companies such as PetSmart and CVS. In February 2006, she started a book marketing company for small presses that quickly became the fastest-growing book distribution company in North America, New Shelves Distribution.
