Host Edith welcomes returning guest Lisa Towles, thriller author, fellow podcaster, and book coach, to discuss Lisa’s nonfiction book, “The Me Factor: Your Secret Weapon for Author Visibility,” which aims to reduce authors’ fear of marketing and help them use their unique identity in branding. Lisa explains a sequence for effective marketing: clarify author identity, conduct a genre analysis based on industry standards, develop audience insights through reader personas, identify comparable titles to craft an “emotional promise,” and then choose intentional, sustainable social media tactics (including options that don’t require being on camera). They discuss using AI and tools like Canva for marketing assets, the value of building an author platform before a book is finished, and trends in reading formats, especially audiobooks and Kindle.
