No matter how you publish, for your book to succeed, you need an "author platform."
Yet, building this community of engaged fans can feel like the hardest and most time-consuming part of becoming an author.
Nina Amir, Certified High Performance coach and bestselling author and author coach/trainer
Building an audience of people excited by your work doesn't have to be difficult, overwhelming, or all-consuming. And, with the right strategy and plan, you can develop an author platform that helps you attract the right readers and sell books to them.
Believe me...I know. Not only have I struggled with the pre-promotion of my books--called author platform building--but I've heard my clients bemoan the fact that they have to be on social media, go out and speak, write blog posts, and more...all in the name of authorship. All they really want to do is write.
But you can write and build an engaged platform and community. And you can enjoy both activities.
Keep in mind that without an audience waiting impatiently for your books, what you write will not have the impact you desire. Your books won't sell.
If, on the other hand, you embrace this essential part of successful authorship, you'll attract an audience and, when they purchase and read your book, you'll have a positive and meaningful impact in their lives. That's why you write...

I’m Nina Amir. I am an 18-time Amazon bestselling author of such books as How to Blog a Book, Authorpreneur, The Author Training Manual, and Creative Visualization for Writers. An international speaker and award-winning journalist and blogger, I am known as the Inspiration to Creation Coach because I help creative people go from the moment of inspiration...when the lightbulb turns on...to the actualization of their creation without letting anything get in the way of that result. I help my clients combine their passion and purpose so they get inspired and take inspired action to create what they desire. Specifically, I love helping writers make a positive and meaningful impact in the world with their words by writing and successfully publishing books, blogs, and articles.
I provide author, book, blog-to-book, and Certified High Performance Coaching services to my clients, some of whom have sold 300,000+ copies of their books, landed deals with major publishing houses and created thriving businesses around their books. I am the founder of National Nonfiction Writing Month, National Book Blogging Month, and the Nonfiction Writers’ University.
