    Can you write a bestselling, successful book that builds your brand, WITHOUT a book deal?

    You want to write a book to raise your profile, to funnel new leads into your business, grow your credibility and to reach more people with your soulwork. And also because being an author is a huge dream of yours. But the whole getting a publishing deal thing is SUCH a competitive process, with so many gatekeepers and delays, that you keep on putting it off. Why on earth invest time in writing a book now that might take years to get a deal. You've thought about self publishing but,&nb...

    How to get a journalist's attention in 2023 + why indie authors are making more than those with book deals

    A bit of a new format this week, with a bit more of a magazine round-up style of what I've been diving deeper into this week in terms of content, self-publishing and marketing. In today's episode I'm diving on into two really interesting topics: Following on from last week's episode 60, where we explored whether you can be a successful and bestselling non-fiction author without a book deal, I'm looking deeper into a recent report by the Alliance of Independent Author on self-published autho...

    Writing your expert book: How to choose a topic that will grow your brand

    You want to write be an author because you know it's a great way to position yourself as an expert, call in new opportunities and attract more clients and customers - but what should your book be about, and if you've got lots of books you could write, which one should you write first? It's such a big decision, and can be the difference between all that time (and possibly money) spent writing your book having incredible ROI or seemingly being a bit of a waste of time... So in this episode I’...

    Who are You to Write a Book? Quick Pep-Talk

    If you want to turn your knowledge into a book, but keep putting it off and thinking: "Who am I to Write a Book?" this episode is going out to you. You are not alone. So many aspiring authors feel doubtful about whether they're up to writing a book they can feel proud of. Team that with taking a self-publishing route, and the lack of official endorsement or permission is enough to keep that book, your soul works, forever hidden under the proverbial bed. I know exactly what that feels like. ...

    Content Marketing when You're a Highly Sensitive Person

    Look, some people just feel things more deeply than others. In fact, some people, like me, can feel embarrassed, rejected and hurt from the smallest, tiniest thing that others would have forgotten a milli-second later. And it's nothing to feel ashamed about (although I did feel ashamed about it for a very long time). For some of us, it's just the way our brains are wired. And when we don't honour this or recognise this, or try to squash these feelings down, it can make showing up in th...

    Overcoming Resistance to Your Writing and Creative Projects so You can Finally Get them Done!

    I may write for a living, but when it comes to writing my own personal creative projects the resistance is real. This summer I want to focus on a new private writing project that's not directly related to work, but definitely something I'm burning to do, and it got me thinking about how we put off so many creative projects that are separate to our work, but which could enhance our lives, careers and businesses in so many amazing ways, if only we could overcome our resistance to them. S...

    How to batch your content and create an effective batching workflow

    New episode today of the podcast, and it's all about batching! Batching your content, in other words sitting down and getting a few weeks of content created and scheduled in one go, has been my go-to since 2020, and has allowed me to stay consistently visible and serving in my business, even if I'm on holiday, taking time off to deal with family issues, or just not feeling the whole getting visible vibe. But earlier this year I fell off the batching wagon. With a brand new program to delive...

    The Content that Builds the Life & Business on Your Vision Board

    So, I got distracted down a whole new social media platform today with the launch of the Threads app (yes, you can follow me on there (www.threads.net/@catebutlerross ) which is more than a little ironic because I had also planned to record this episode today, which is all about not wasting our time down scroll holes and using this mid way point of the year, to tune into our visions for our life and business and planning content that's going to help us get there by the end of 2023.

    EPISODE 70

    Why someone who's read your book is the best kind of person to have on your email list + here's how to turn them from reader to subscriber

    Two of my favourite topics - email newsletters and turning your knowledge into a book, all wrapped up in to one super-speedy little episode. Anyone who's ever read a non-fiction, self help or how to book and fallen in love with the author and their way of doing things, knows the power of writing a book as a business card. But if we want our book to give us ROI (of time, money, energy etc), we need to be turning our readers into subscribers. In this episode, we talk about how your best email...
