Successful book marketing
requires a strong platform


"What's the best way to market my book(s)?"
If you're an independent (AKA self-publishing) author, this is probably the #1 Question on your mind.
And it's also the one with the most confusing/least helpful answers from dozens of well-meaning sources:
"Invest in advertising!"
"Book a blog tour!"
"Connect with booksellers!"
"Get on BookTok/Bookstagram!"
While these are genuinely good avenues to explore, none of them will do you any good without a strong, cohesive, and attractive author platform.
It's time to stop the struggle...
...And turn your career as an author into a dream come true!
INTRODUCING...
The Author Platform Blueprint
BUILD YOUR AUTHORSHIP FOR SUCCESS.
Learn how to establish yourself, and your works, as the go-to fave for readers, retailers, and promoters alike. We'll teach you how to:
- Identify and develop your brand image
- Build your author website according to where you're at in your career
- Make the most out of what you have—even if that's very little
And most importantly: grow your readership, reputation, and sales without paying for advertisements.
Here's what you'll learn in this course:

BRANDING BASICS
Identify your best font styles, color schemes, and overall message according to your genre and/or thematic focus.

WEBSITE WIZARDRY
Whether you're just starting out or wanting to revamp your established career, we'll teach you how to build the perfect website without any tech experience.

SOCIAL MEDIA SAVVY
You don't need to master ALL of the platforms! We'll help you pick which ones work best for your goals—and how to scale without stress.

EMAIL EXPERTISE
Establish and grow your email list—while preparing for your success and avoiding surprise surcharges.

BOOKSTORES, BOOK SIGNINGS, & BEYOND
Learn the "insider secrets" retailers and publishing pros wish you knew—and make it easy for them to say "YES!" to your books.

I'M NIKKI AUBERKETT
I'm the owner and founder of Tala Editorial, LLC — but I'm also a developmental editor, business mentor, cultural anthropologist, and award-nominated indie author.
So many hats, so much knowledge to share!
I'm also a big believer in making the most out of bare-bones resources (because "starving artist" is a real thing!) and I'm constantly researching new ways to accelerate and amplify authorship careers. Everything in this course—and all courses in Tala Editorial Academy—has been personally tested, vetted, and verified successful.
