HUB 516: AUTHOR PANEL – Bill Miller, Kate Vawter, and Judi Lawrence

Share the goodness!

Many entrepreneurial authors feel uncomfortable promoting themselves.

They worry about sounding salesy. They do not want to overwhelm their audience. And for some, the idea of repeatedly talking about their book feels exhausting or even inauthentic.

So they stay quiet.

But the challenge is this: if people do not know about your book, they cannot benefit from it.

The good news is that promotion does not have to feel pushy.

One of the easiest ways to market your book is to do it alongside other authors. When authors collaborate, share audiences, and support each other’s visibility, promotion starts to feel more like a community and less like self-promotion.

That’s one of the reasons I created the Kindle Flash Sale. It brings together entrepreneurial authors who cross-promote each other’s books during a coordinated campaign, helping everyone expand their reach, build momentum, and connect with new readers.

If promoting your book feels uncomfortable, or if you would rather market your book as part of a collaborative community instead of trying to do it all alone, learn more about the next Kindle Flash Sale at http://www.KindleFlashSale.com.

And now, let’s meet today’s panelists.

Bill Miller wrote “The Rookie CEO, You Can’t Make This Stuff Up! Learn How 9 Rookie CEOs Got There, Executed, Created Their Stories and Led!”, a leadership book that shares real stories from first-time CEOs and the lessons they learned while stepping into the top role, making decisions under pressure, and leading through uncertainty.

Dr. Kate Vawter wrote “Better Boss Blueprint: How Great Managers Build Trust, Inspire Loyalty, and Deliver Results,” a practical management guide that helps leaders strengthen trust, improve team relationships, and create the conditions for better performance and loyalty.

Judi Lawrence wrote “Your Passport to Apostilles: 116 Tips to Build a Thriving Business as an Apostille Agent,” a specialized business guide that helps notaries and entrepreneurs understand apostille work, build confidence, and grow a profitable service-based business.

Please join me in welcoming Bill, Kate, and Judi.
