This solo episode is focused on the seven biggest mistakes first-time authors make. They are:

 

  • Skimping on cover design
  • Not optimizing book descriptions
  • Not have a reason why/CTA
  • Slacking on editing
  • Not gathering reader reviews
  • Not getting that it's not about them
  • Listening to people who give bad advice once the book is written

 

Listen to get all the deets!
