One of my VIP coaching clients sold 200+ children’s books BEFORE her book even officially launched! 🤯

And she did it without having a huge audience.

So, of course, I had to bring her onto my channel and have her spill ALL the details!

In this interview, we’re talking about her pre-launch strategy, Sponsor a Story campaign, Shopify pre-orders, social media marketing, and what she did differently as a debut children’s book author.


If you have a children’s book launch coming up, there are SO many ideas in this one that you can adapt for your own launch!

🎧 Happy Children's Book Marketing Monday!

This week's episode is a little different because I'm taking you behind the scenes of my own journey as a children's book author and illustrator!

I sat down for an interview where we talked about how Doppy started as a little clay character I created when I was 11... and how I eventually turned that childhood idea into my full-time children's book business.

We talk about self-publishing, illustrating, marketing, imposter syndrome, what I've learned along the way, and even what I wish I would've done differently with my very first book.

I made $300 selling my children's books in just THREE hours at a local farmers' market.

No ads. No huge crowd. And no pushy sales tactics!

If not, here's your reminder!

In this episode, I'm sharing why I give my children's book eBooks away for FREE during launches—and how I use those free promotions strategically to help my books gain more visibility on Amazon.
