  • How an Author With 800 Followers Outsells One With 8,000
    May 5 2026

    Three years ago, Jenn watched an author with 8,000 engaged Instagram followers sell zero copies of her book, and the reason had nothing to do with her platform or her content quality. In this episode, she shares what was actually missing, and contrasts it with a second author who had fewer than 1,000 followers and was outselling authors with ten times her audience. If you've been showing up, building an audience, and still not selling, this episode is going to name exactly what's getting in the way.

  • Why Your Book Marketing Gets Views But Not Sales
    Apr 28 2026

    If your content is getting engagement but your book isn't selling, this episode is going to name exactly what's happening - and it's not what most authors expect. Jenn breaks down why showing up consistently isn't enough on its own, what the missing piece in most authors' content actually is, and what it looks like to create content that moves readers from I love following you to I'm buying your book. Simple, practical, and the kind of shift that changes how you think about every post you create going forward.

  • Book Marketing for the Author Who Refuses to Put Their Life Online
    Apr 21 2026

    If you've been avoiding book marketing because every example you've seen requires putting your personal life online - your face, your story, your daily life as content - this episode is going to change how you see what's actually required. Jenn breaks down the difference between personal branding and book marketing, why you don't need to share anything personal to sell your book effectively, and what reader-focused content looks like for both fiction and nonfiction authors. Whether you're a healthcare professional keeping worlds separate, writing under a pen name, or simply someone who refuses to perform a personal brand, this one's for you.
