The Entrepreneur Summit Season One-Write A Book Make A Mint
Welcome to Our Entrepreneur Summit!
We're here today with Cherice Gilliam, The My Big Idea Coach. Cherice and I are here to help you take your Passion to Profits...
My Big Idea Coach helps entrepreneurs create systems and accountability in order to help you work smarter not harder. And In today's podcast, we are leveraging the 5 Shifts that you need to write, publish, and then launch your book to a 6-figure income.
Targeting Your Niche...
Prior to writing, you need to know your niche and your audience!
Have you done your research?
I didn’t and it cost me years writing to a genre that was oversaturated. I did learn from this experience and, yes, I would have still written the book.
Though, I would not have spent the money nor the time and effort to market it.
My first novel was a true story about a little girl and her horse. I learned a great deal about my writing and about the publishing business, but I can never forget the discouragement when I realized the flat market trend.
I’d gone to New York City’s Writer’s Digest Conference. Attended the welcoming presentation the first evening was when the keynote speaker told the audience, “With perseverance and dedication our book will find its success and recognition unless you’ve written a book about a house, of course.”
I was crushed!
Had I done the research and learned my niche learned what my audience wanted and needed, I would not have tried to market that book.
Honestly, I was not attending the conference to pitch that particular book. Though, I had not done the work that I should have.
- I did not know then what the best niche I was to be writing for.
- Nor did I know the ideal market. I had no idea how to decipher the data and to select my ideal market.
Knowing such insight can save you time, money, and unnecessary disappointment.
The ideal place to do our market research is right here online.
Research books that are selling. How are they like yours? How are they different?
And most importantly... how can your book be better?
Gather all the information and insight that you can. Don’t hesitate to reach out for a helping hand. My link is in my bio🌻Or schedule a strategy call with myself or one of our editors at https://StoryLuancher.com/apply

Inspiration, It's Everywhere
Where do you look for creative inspiration?
And what is the inspiring factor? Is it the scene or the activity? What about people?
People are the most inspiring resource... because a great story is based entirely on Great Characters!
First, you must learn to slow down and watch the people hurrying past. One doesn't necessarily need to converse with people simply sit back and watch.
