Most authors stop at “bestseller.” That’s cute. But if your book isn’t building your brand, landing clients, or breaking open locked doors… what’s the point?

This week, Amber Gaige brings her experience as a third-generation entrepreneur and StoryBrand expert to show you how smart authors turn books into revenue-generating assets.

She’s flipping the usual marketing fluff on its head and showing you how to weaponize your book with real strategy.

Inside This Episode:

  • Books Don’t Build Authority—Smart Authors Do
    Get blunt about what it really takes to turn pages into power and why media exposure isn’t optional.
  • Funnels Aren’t Sleazy—Yours Just Sucks
    Learn how to build a funnel that actually converts without feeling like a spam bot.
  • Repurpose or Be Irrelevant
    If your content dies in your book, you’re wasting gold. Here’s how to cut it up, spread it out, and stay top of mind.
  • Marketing Before the Launch or Don’t Bother
    Stop scrambling post-publish. Amber breaks down how to lay the groundwork before your book ever drops.
  • Clarity Is Currency
    If you don’t know who you’re talking to or what you want, no tactic will save you. Let’s fix that.

This isn’t another “book launch tips” episode. It’s a wake-up call for authors who want real ROI.
