Cross Promotion: Turning Collaboration into Indie Author Success
In this deep dive episode, our hosts unpack the latest strategies and best practices from Indie Author Magazine’s featured article on cross promotion. Moving beyond the “lone wolf” myth, they chronicle how indie authors can tap into the power of collaboration—not just for exposure, but to revolutionize their publishing business.
Learn how to find the right cross-promotion partners by honing in on your unique “reader promise,” why careful vetting protects your brand, and how simple group promotions like newsletter swaps can fuel your mailing list (and your future sales) with minimal investment.

We break down more advanced tactics: from co-created eBook bundles and exclusive merchandise, to practical advice on handling copyright, money, and contracts so everyone wins. You’ll also get creative examples of collaborative merch that loyal fans will actually want to keep.
