Episode 47: The Blueprint to Writing a Thought Leadership Book That Sells
Let’s talk about something most aspiring authors completely overlook: writing a book that actually sells and supports your business. In this episode, I walk you through what it really takes to turn your expertise and experiences into a profitable thought leadership book—not just a passion project.
Because here’s the truth: good writing alone isn’t enough. I’ve seen people with average writing skills outsell brilliant authors simply because they understand marketing, positioning, and strategy.
If your goal is to build a brand, book speaking gigs, launch coaching offers, or grow your business… then this episode is your blueprint.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode
-
Start with the end in mind. Before you write a single word, ask: What do I want this book to do for me? For my readers? What doors do I want it to open?
-
Blend strategy with storytelling. Your story alone isn’t enough. It’s how you strategically use your story to teach, lead, and guide.
-
You need a clear framework. I walk you through why having a signature framework is essential—and how it becomes the foundation for your offers.
-
Think beyond book sales. If you’re only thinking about selling books, you’re playing small. This episode will challenge you to map out a full monetization plan—from speaking to coaching to digital products.
-
Pre-sell with purpose. Don’t wait for launch day to talk about your book. I explain how to build buzz and demand before it even drops.
