Authorship Secrets | Book Marketing and Authorpreneurship
By Tye Hillam
Why is it that Authors are the only professionals who have to work a normal job just to make ends meet?
They can dedicate years of their life to produce a work of art that no one ever reads...
What if there was a way to earn a real income selling your book and get it into the hands of your ideal reader?
What if there was a way for Authors to ditch their job and make Authorship their full time profession?
That’s the glaring question and this podcast will take you on a journey to this answer.
My name is Tye Hillam and welcome to Authorship Secrets...

Welcome to the brand new segment called "G'day Tye", where listeners get to submit their questions directly to Tye for answering on the Authorship Secrets podcast.
In this episode, Tye answers the fabled question...
"How do I get more reviews for my books on Amazon?"
This is perhaps the only question authors ask more often than "How do I sell more books"?
In this episode, you'll receive practical and actionable advice for increasing the number of reviews your books receive on Amazon or any other 3rd party marketplace of your choice.
Plus, you'll learn about the massive, hidden trap most authors don't know about when it comes to asking for reviews. Don't go asking for reviews until you learn what this is.

Ep. 007 - Are You Proposing to Your Readers on the First Date?
Most authors think they're marketing their books, when in reality they're actually trying to "propose" to their prospective readers on the first date. Scaring them off for good.
In this episode Tye shares examples of this fatal mistake he's observed thousands of authors make; often without even knowing they're doing it. Plus, how you can change this dynamic around so you're no longer chasing your prospective readers, but actually drawing them towards you.
