  • Why You Should Self-Publish a Book in the Next 90 Days to Grow Your Business

    If you’ve been saying, “One day I’ll write a book,” this is your sign that one day is now.

    Not next year.
    Not when things slow down.
    Not when you feel “more ready.”

    The truth is, self-publishing a book in the next 90 days can completely change the trajectory of your business—and faster than almost any other marketing strategy available today.

    Let me explain why.

    A Book Instantly Positions You as the Authority

    In a crowded online world, attention is expensive—but authority cuts through the noise.

    When you become an author, the conversation shifts:

    • You’re no longer “another coach” or “one of many consultants”
    • You’re the author of the book on your topic
    • Your message carries weight before you ever say a word

    A book does what years of posting on social media often can’t—it establishes credibility at scale.

    And no, it doesn’t have to be a 300-page masterpiece. The most powerful business books are clear, concise, and action-driven.

    A Book Is the Ultimate Business Asset

    Unlike ads that stop working when you stop paying, a book keeps working for you.

    Your book can:

    • Open doors to podcasts, stages, and media
    • Become your most powerful lead generator
    • Warm up prospects before they ever get on a call with you
    • Increase conversion rates across all your offers

    I’ve watched authors close higher-ticket clients simply because someone read a chapter of their book first.

    That’s leverage.

    Speed Matters More Than Perfection

    One of the biggest myths I hear is:

    “I need more time.”

    What most people actually need is a proven process.

    Self-publishing today isn’t about waiting for permission or perfection. It’s about getting your message into the hands of the people who need it now.

    In 90 days, you could:

    • Clearly define your core message
    • Publish a professional book aligned with your business
    • Start using that book to drive visibility, leads, and revenue

    Every month you delay is momentum you don’t get back.

    A Book Turns Visibility Into Revenue

    Visibility without strategy is just noise.

    But when your book is intentionally designed to support your business, it becomes a bridge:

    • From reader → subscriber
    • From subscriber → client
    • From client → long-term advocate

    Your book isn’t just something you publish—it’s something you activate.

    And when paired with podcast interviews, speaking opportunities, and strategic media, your book becomes the centerpiece of your growth engine.

    Why the Next 90 Days Matter

    There is something powerful about committing to a short, focused timeline.

    Ninety days creates:

    • Clarity instead of overthinking
    • Momentum instead of procrastination
    • Results instead of “someday”

    Most people don’t fail to publish because they aren’t capable.
    They fail because they try to do it alone.

    A Gentle Invitation

    If you know you have a book inside you—and you want it published with purpose, not just to say you did it—this is exactly why Author-licity exists.

    It’s designed for business owners who want to:

    • Publish efficiently
    • Position themselves as authorities
    • And turn their book into a growth tool—not a dusty Amazon link

    You don’t need more information.
    You need alignment, support, and a clear path forward.

    Your message is already powerful.
    Publishing it might be the move that finally lets the right people find you.

    And the next 90 days?
    They’re going to pass anyway.

    The question is—will you finish what you started?

  • Fewer Decisions. Bigger Impact.

    How to Stay Focused When the New Year Brings Too Many Choices

    A new year has a way of arriving with everything at once.

    New goals.
    New opportunities.
    New strategies.
    New offers pulling at your attention.

    And while possibility is exciting, it can also feel overwhelming. When everything feels important, it becomes hard to decide what actually matters.

    The Hidden Cost of Too Many Choices

    We don’t often talk about how draining constant decision-making can be.

    Every choice costs energy:

    • Should I pursue this opportunity?
    • Is this the right strategy?
    • What if I make the wrong decision?
    • Am I focusing on the thing that will truly move the needle?

    Over time, this leads to motion without momentum.

    Overwhelm rarely comes from doing too much.
    It comes from doing too many misaligned things.

    One Question That Simplifies Everything

    When I feel pulled in too many directions, I return to this question:

    “What’s the one decision I can make now that will make future decisions easier?”

    Not ten goals.
    Not a perfect plan.
    One clear commitment.

    The right decision doesn’t just move you forward—it removes friction from everything that comes next.

    Focus Isn’t About Doing More—It’s About Choosing Better

    Focus in the new year doesn’t mean shrinking your vision.
    It means protecting it.

    A simple filter I recommend:

    1. Does this support my long-term authority and impact?
    2. Will this still matter a year from now?
    3. Does this align with the legacy I want to build?

    If the answer is no, it may be a distraction—no matter how shiny it looks.

    Why Long-Term Decisions Create Short-Term Clarity

    Some decisions don’t deliver instant gratification—but they quietly pay dividends over time.

    Publishing your ideas.
    Establishing your authority.
    Positioning yourself as the go-to expert in your space.

    These are the kinds of choices that reduce future overwhelm because they anchor everything else. When your message is clear and your credibility is established, opportunities become easier to evaluate—and easier to say yes or no to.

    This is why programs like Author-licity aren’t about adding more to your plate. They’re about making one strategic decision that simplifies your marketing, your messaging, and your visibility for years to come.

    Trade Hustle for Alignment

    The pressure to do everything right now is loud at the start of the year. But real growth comes from alignment, not acceleration.

    Fewer projects.
    Clear positioning.
    Consistent action in the right direction.

    When you commit to something that compounds—like becoming a published authority—everything else becomes more focused, more intentional, and more effective.

    A Gentle Invitation as You Step Into the New Year

    As you move into this next chapter, ask yourself:

    What’s the decision I can make today that my future self will thank me for?

    Choosing clarity over chaos.
    Choosing authority over noise.
    Choosing a path that pays off long after the new year motivation fades.

    If Author-licity has been on your mind, consider this your gentle nudge—not as another option to weigh, but as a foundational decision that creates momentum, confidence, and focus long-term.

    You don’t need more choices.

    You need one clear, aligned decision—and the courage to follow through.

  • When is the Best Time to Publish My Story?

    “Visibility Is Your Responsibility”

    For years, we’ve been told that if our work is good enough, we’ll be discovered.

    That visibility will come after success.

    That humility means staying quiet.

    That someone else—an algorithm, a publisher, a producer—will eventually tap us on the shoulder and say, “It’s your turn.”

    But here’s the uncomfortable truth:

    Visibility doesn’t happen. It’s created.

    And in today’s world, choosing not to be visible isn’t neutral—it’s a decision with consequences.

    The Myth of Accidental Impact

    We live in an era where knowledge has never been more accessible, yet wisdom is increasingly buried.

    It seems like the experts are staying silent while louder, less qualified voices are dominating the conversation.

    I’ve had many thought-leaders tell me they’re waiting until they feel “ready.” Oftentimes, these are entrepreneurs with decades of experience who have convinced themselves it’s not the right time.

    Meanwhile, the people who need your insight are left searching.

    The myth of “accidental impact” tells us that if our message matters, it will rise on its own.

    But history tells a different story.

    Every movement, every shift in culture, every meaningful change was carried forward by people who chose to be seen—often before they felt ready.

    Impact requires intention. And intention requires visibility.

    Social Media Isn’t Legacy—It’s a Moment

    We’ve confused being present with being permanent.

    A post gets likes today and disappears tomorrow.

    An algorithm changes, and years of work vanish overnight.

    Platforms we built entire businesses on no longer belong to us.

    Visibility that lives only on borrowed platforms is fragile.

    Legacy, on the other hand, is built through mediums that endure:

    • Books that can’t be deleted
    • Conversations that live beyond trends
    • Ideas that can be referenced, revisited, and reshared long after the moment has passed

    When your life’s work is reduced to content that expires in 24 hours, your message is at the mercy of systems you don’t control.

    True visibility isn’t about chasing attention—it’s about creating permanence.

    Silence Is Still a Choice

    Many people believe staying quiet is the safer option.

    But silence doesn’t protect your message. It buries it.

    If you’ve learned something the hard way,

    If you’ve built something that works,

    If you’ve navigated challenges others are still facing—

    Then your voice isn’t extra. It’s essential.

    Choosing not to share what you know doesn’t just affect you. It affects the people who never get access to the perspective only you can offer.

    Visibility is not about ego. It’s about stewardship.

    You Don’t Need More Credentials—You Need Ownership

    The most common objection I hear is, “I need to be further along first.”

    But authority today isn’t granted by gatekeepers—it’s built through contribution.

    You don’t need permission to:

    • Share your story
    • Document what you’ve learned
    • Speak about what you know
    • Claim space in conversations that matter

    Ownership of your voice is the new credibility.

    And when you own your message—through publishing, speaking, or long-form media—you stop waiting to be chosen and start leading.

    The Responsibility of Being Visible

    Visibility is often framed as a personal brand strategy.

    But it’s bigger than that.

    When you choose visibility:

    • You give others permission to speak
    • You normalize leadership for those watching
    • You preserve ideas that deserve to outlive trends

    Your responsibility isn’t to be everywhere.

    It’s to be intentional about where your message lives.

    Because the truth is, someone is learning from someone else in your absence.

    The Question That Changes Everything

    So the real question isn’t, “Do I want to be visible?”

    It’s this:

    What happens if the people who need my voice never hear it?

    Visibility isn’t about being louder.

    It’s about being accountable to the impact you’re capable of making.

    And legacy doesn’t begin someday.

    It begins the moment you decide your story matters enough to be published.

  • How Publishing Your Next Book Can Outperform Any Single Marketing Campaign

    Most marketing campaigns are built to perform for a moment.

    A launch.
    A promotion.
    A limited-time push.

    Then it’s over.

    The ads stop running.
    The emails stop going out.
    The buzz fades.

    But a book? A book works for you every single day—long after any single campaign has ended.

    When positioned correctly, a book becomes the most powerful, long-term marketing engine in your business. And when paired with weekly podcast guesting, it can outperform even your best paid campaigns in reach, authority, and revenue.

    Here’s how.

    A Book Is a 24/7 Credibility Machine

    No ad, funnel, or social post instantly elevates your authority like a published book.

    The moment you become an author, you’re no longer just another coach, consultant, or entrepreneur—you’re a recognized expert. A book:

    • Positions you as the authority in your niche
    • Builds trust before you ever get on a call
    • Removes skepticism in the buying process
    • Creates instant status on stages, screens, and sales pages

    While marketing campaigns ask for attention, a book earns it.

    A Campaign Ends. A Book Compounds.

    A marketing campaign has a fixed shelf life. Once the budget runs out or the promotion ends, so does the momentum.

    A book compounds.

    Every copy sold, shared, mailed, gifted, or quoted continues to market your message. Your book becomes:

    • Your best business card
    • Your most powerful lead magnet
    • Your sales tool that never sleeps
    • Your credibility piece in every room you enter

    Instead of pouring money into short-term exposure, you’re investing in a long-term asset that grows in value over time.

    Weekly Podcast Guesting Turns Your Book Into a Lead-Generating Machine

    Here’s where most authors leave massive opportunity on the table.

    They publish the book…
    Promote it for a few weeks…
    Then move on.

    Smart authors do the opposite.

    They use their book as the reason they get booked on podcasts every single week.

    Podcast hosts are always looking for:

    • Experts with real frameworks
    • People with proven stories
    • Guests who can teach something tangible
    • And yes—published authors

    Your book becomes your passport onto other people’s platforms.

    Now imagine this:

    Instead of one campaign reaching one audience…
    You are a guest on 4–8 podcasts every month…
    Each with warm, loyal listeners…
    All hearing your story, your message, and your offer—directly from you.

    That is what real, sustainable visibility looks like.

    Podcasts Warm Audiences Faster Than Any Ad Ever Could

    Podcast listeners spend 30–60 minutes with you in their ears.

    They hear your voice.
    Your story.
    Your passion.
    Your expertise.

    By the time they visit your website, download your free resource, or book a call—they already feel like they know you.

    This is why conversion rates from podcast traffic are often higher than:

    • Cold ads
    • Social media traffic
    • One-off promotions

    Your book gives you the authority to get booked.
    Your voice creates the relationship.
    Your offer converts the lead.

    That’s a powerful ecosystem—built around one central asset: your book.

    One Book Can Fuel Every Part of Your Business

    A well-positioned book doesn’t just help you sell books. It fuels:

    • Your email list growth
    • Your speaking opportunities
    • Your podcast bookings
    • Your coaching and programs
    • Your media visibility
    • Your high-ticket sales

    One story.
    One message.
    One framework.

    Distributed everywhere.

    Instead of creating new marketing from scratch each month, your book becomes the source that feeds everything else you do.

    The Real Power Move: Book + Weekly Podcast Strategy

    Here’s the truth most entrepreneurs miss:

    A book without consistent visibility is underutilized.
    Podcast visibility without a backend strategy is under-monetized.

    But together?

    They outperform nearly every single standalone marketing campaign you could run.

    You don’t just “launch” your book.
    You build an ecosystem around it.

    You don’t just go on one or two podcasts.
    You make guesting a weekly growth strategy.

    This is how modern thought leaders scale without burning out on content, ads, and constant promotions.

    Final Thought

    Marketing campaigns are events.
    A book is an asset.

    Campaigns spike attention.
    Books build legacy.

    When you use your book as the foundation—and amplify it through weekly podcast guesting—you stop chasing visibility and start owning it.

    Your book doesn’t just tell your story.
    It becomes the most powerful marketing tool you’ll ever create.

    Here are the top 12 objections that keep people from publishing their book, along with exactly how our Author-licity™ coaching program helsp you move through each one with clarity and confidence.

    How we help: Our Author-licity™ framework shows you exactly how to write and publish your book in small, focused blocks of time. With accountability and templates, you stay on track even with a busy life.

    4. “I’m not a ‘real’ writer.”

    So many aspiring authors believe they need perfect skills or a literary background. Not true.
    How we help: We help you write in your natural voice, structure your ideas, and turn your expertise into a powerful book. Most of our authors are not writers — they’re experts with a message.

    5. “What if nobody reads it?”

    The fear of pouring your heart into a book and hearing crickets is real.
    How we help: We teach you how to identify your ideal reader, position your book, and use podcast interviews to build demand — even before your book launches.

    6. “My idea isn’t unique enough.”

    Many authors compare their ideas to others and talk themselves out of writing.
    How we help: We help you uncover your unique angle, voice, and story — the pieces that make your book stand out. Your message matters, and your perspective is the differentiator.

    7. “Publishing is too expensive.”

    A lot of people think publishing requires huge fees or signing everything over to a publisher.
    How we help: We focus on cost-effective self-publishing strategies where you keep your royalties, maintain control, and publish professionally without breaking the bank.

    8. “I don’t want to deal with the tech.”

    Formatting, ISBNs, uploads, covers — it can all feel intimidating.
    How we help: We guide you through every technical step with simple instructions, resources, and hands-on support so you never feel stuck.

    9. “I don’t know how to market it.”

    A book without a marketing plan becomes a best-kept secret.
    How we help: We teach a simple, repeatable marketing strategy using podcast interviews, visibility, and authentic connections — not complicated launches or funnels. You’ll know exactly how to get readers and build momentum.

    10. “I’m afraid of telling my story.”

    Writing a book can bring up vulnerability — especially if it’s personal.
    How we help: We create a safe, supportive environment where you decide what to share. You’ll learn how to tell your story in a way that empowers both you and your reader.

    11. “What if I succeed?”

    Success can be just as scary as failure.
    How we help: We help you step into your authority with confidence and give you a plan for what comes next — additional books, media, speaking, or business growth. You’re supported every step of the way.

    12. “It’s not the right time.”

    Life feels busy, unpredictable, or full — so people wait for the “perfect time.”
    How we help: There is no perfect time. But with structure, accountability, and a community cheering you on, you’ll create progress faster than you thought possible. This is your sign that now is the right time.

    Final Thoughts: You Don’t Have to Do This Alone

    Writing a book is one of the most powerful ways to grow your credibility, share your message, and make an impact — but it doesn’t have to be confusing, overwhelming, or done in isolation.

    With the right coaching, support, and roadmap, you can publish your book faster and easier than you ever imagined.

    If you’re ready to finally bring your book to the world, we’d love to guide you every step of the way.
