Book & Art Marketing Q&A: I Feel Invisible. HELP!


Listen Later

Whether you're an author trying to sell more books or an artist building your creative business online, chances are you've asked at least one of these questions.

In this video, I'm answering the most common marketing questions I receive from the creative entrepreneurs inside my membership — covering content strategy, social media growth, getting more engagement, book reviews, and how to know if what you're doing is actually working.


What we cover:

  • How to tell if your content strategy is working (or if you just need more time)
  • Whether you should be on multiple platforms or focus on one
  • What to post when you're not in launch mode
  • Why engagement feels dead right now — and what to do about it
  • How to balance show, sell, and storytell content
  • How to get more reviews for your book or creative work
