A Nonfiction Book Launch Wide: The First 30 Days

Launching a book wide is a new challenge for J. and Zach, especially a nonfiction book. With differences in strategy, pricing, format, and distribution, it can be difficult to decide what to do and what not to do.

After the first 30 days of “Three Story Method,” the guys discuss their plan, results and what they would do differently. They discuss the nuances of ebook, paperback, audio, and workbook as well as the ways in which promotion is different for nonfiction than fiction.

The Career Author Podcast is a podcast where co-authors J. Thorn and Zach Bohannon share their struggles and successes as full-time authors, advice for improving your writing craft, and honest discussions of what it takes to build a successful career as an author.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

• What J. and Zach did during the first 30 days of the book launch
• How those actions created (or didn’t) measurable results
• What worked in order of impact
• The things the guys might do differently next time

Also in this episode, learn how you can use nostalgia to create memorable characters.
