Overview
Crowdfunding your book can feel extremely overwhelming. What many authors don’t realize is that every book launch employs the same marketing fundamental techniques used in crowdfunding – but crowdfunding condenses those marketing approaches into a 30-day campaign. I’ve crowdfunded my books on Kickstarter and have been helping authors crowdfund their books since 2017. I offer authors tools for audience building, engagement, and everything they need to become crowdfunding experts to create a sustainable book launch approach that fully funds their self-publishing investment.
I offer step-by-step crowdfunding coaching based on your specific audience, book genre, and preferred marketing approach. If you’re confident that you want to crowdfund your book but aren’t sure where to start, then I’m happy to provide starting resources for you.
Together, we will create compelling marketing messages that resonate with your readers. We will brainstorm creative rewards that your readers will love so that when you launch your crowdfunding campaign, your readers are excited to participate.
By experience, I've discovered how the energy and support we give others come back to us tenfold. If you need a bit of hand-holding through the crowdfunding process, then I know that my step-by-step coaching and program will help you achieve your publishing goals—all while expanding your creativity, setting your own budget, and marketing in a way that feels best for you.

Projects
Meet the Wild - $10K Kickstarter
Lindsay and I share a love for nature play children's books and together we worked out a plan for her to interview a panel of nature play experts to hold a virtual summit for audience building and outreach prior to her launch. She successfully Kickstarted $10K with 175 backers!
Fully Accessible Winnie the Pooh - non-profit Kickstarter

Makini Regal was a wonderful author to work with on this campaign. Together we planned out an Instagram influencer strategy, campaign page graphic design, rewards, and outreach marketing.
