No two books are exactly alike, and no two authors have the same goals. So your book launch strategy shouldn’t be one-size-fits-all either.

In this episode of Your Path to Book Publishing, we’re kicking off a new series on book launches and what authors need to think about before launch day arrives. Whether you’re self-publishing, hybrid publishing, or traditionally publishing, your launch should start with your “why”—why you wrote the book, who you want to reach, and what success looks like for you.

You’ll learn why no one will care more about your book launch than you, how to think about sales goals versus impact goals, and why audience clarity should guide your book marketing decisions. We’ll also look at how your budget, publishing path, and reader experience can shape the launch plan that fits you best.

This episode also previews upcoming conversations with Josh Porter, author of The Last Human Marketer, and Marissa Eigenbrood, president and partner of Smith Publicity, as we continue exploring what makes a strong, strategic book launch.
