I was setting my self up to fail.

I was trying to build my speaking career on top of my book instead of my author brand.

I didn't realize that I was essentially building a house without a foundation—it’s bound to crumble.

My book mattered, but my over all online presence was the key. I was trying to figure things out alone and that was my biggest mistake.

I needed mentors, people who knew the game better than I did.

Many authors believe they need to do it all: writing, editing, marketing, audience-building.

But the truth is, you don’t need to struggle solo.

Success comes from having a solid support system—your website, email list, and community are the backbone of your brand.

Here’s how to get started: Strengthen one pillar each week or even each month.

Take your time, what's the rush?

Whether it’s optimizing your LinkedIn, engaging with your readers, or refining your offers, build your brand brick by brick.

Your book deserves more than just effort—it deserves a foundation that lasts.
