Create a Book Marketing Plan that Sells!
Many authors believe that their work is done once they’ve written their book. Writing the book is actually just the beginning of your publishing journey! Once that book is beginning to take shape, it’s time to view your book as a business. You want to sell books, right? Then you need a plan!
In Creating a Book Marketing Plan that Sells!, you’ll:
- Write an effective synopsis of your work.
- Summarize each chapter so that you know exactly what benefits your readers receive from your message.
- Craft a bio that highlights your wisdom, expertise, and knowledge. (This means you get to brag!)
- Know your “competition” by scouring Amazon and Goodreads for books similar to yours.
- Identify your Influencers (people who will brag about you!).
- Make a list of your Fans (folks who will buy at least one copy of your book).
- List all of your organizations and affiliations
- Assemble a media list where you’ll send an announcement about your book.
- Create a promotional plan that sets you apart from other authors,
- Plus much more!

In addition to meeting 2 times a month for 3 months, I’ll provide you with individual feedback on each section of your marketing plan.
Plus, you’ll get a 45-minute individual consulting session with me.
By the end of this course, you’ll have the Plan and Confidence that will allow you to sell far more books than if you simply loaded your books on Amazon and hoped for the best.

It is Kathy Sparrow who is truly the master of this craft. She is able to adapt the tone of the writer, spin the words, and create the story we were meant to hear.

Kathy Sparrow was able to assist me in getting down a solid structure for the book so that I now feel I can go off and succeed on my own. She read through my submissions with genuine interest and gave good feedback, plus some good ideas.
One of the best ways that Kathy Sparrow helped me to achieve my book writing goals was that she taught me a process that I find extremely useful in getting started and keeping on. I will be able to use this over and over again, for all the story ideas I have. Plus, I really appreciate the goal we set for follow-up two months down the road. This assures me that I will keep writing.
Is there anything else that you would like to add? This was the best writing class I have ever taken. I feel that I was most successful in Kathy’s class. She is a very good instructor, and I would recommend her class to anyone with an idea for a book, whether it be fiction or nonfiction.”

The Legacy Keeper
The Legacy Keeper is the keeper of knowledge. Recording the lessons of family triumphs and lessons of loss and pain—and capturing the fruit that can be derived from them—is the mission of the Legacy Keeper.
The good times and those challenging ones are all part of the human experience. They all make us who we are today and weave the story of our legacy. This is the priceless gift we can leave to our children and our grandchildren…Our legacy—and theirs.
If preserving your family history is important and you want to ensure that your legacy lives on, please contact me and we’ll work together to create a timeless book.
