    You are the best pitch person I have come across in a long time. Can't believe one of the shopping channels hasn't sniffed you out yet. By the way I love the "Book Broad", tag. It's memorable and shows that you don't take yourself too seriously -- i.e. you can be trusted.

    Always enjoy your videos. Growing up next to Maritimes Canada I noticed your pronunciation of "house" like "hoose". It made me laugh but in a nostalgic way of remembering The Beachcomers, Romper Room, Friendly Giant, and Mister Dressup. BTW as a child, I watched more Canadian TV (CBC & ATV) than I did American TV (NBC, CBS, ABC).

    • @BookLaunchers
      @BookLaunchers  2 роки тому +1

      That is awesome! The friendly giant was one of my favorites. :) My parents only had Satellite TV so I watched CBC and the rest were American Channels ... funny!! :)

      ​@@BookLaunchers "Look up, look waaaaay up". I did not realize how much Canadian TV inculcated my childhood until I moved away from Maine. Whenever I mentioned things like Paddington Bear, Shantytown, Simon in the Land of Chalk Drawings, Kids in the Hall, etc. people would just stare at me. Also, I remember the national anthem at the beginning and end of the broadcast day as well. They showed Niagara Falls playing "O Canada".

    So many great tips to choose from. I think that for me, right now is an excellent time to concentrate on tip number 5, building an author platform and tip number 13 SEO and metadata. Those are two areas where I know that those two areas can definitely use some improvement. I definitely like the idea about a book club. I will definitely be looking forward to that video. As always, thanks for sharing such great info.

    True! There is no excuse to not sell your book while on isolation.
    I have to keep telling myself that there is also no excuse to not finishing your book while in isolation. (Hoo boy... the last chapter so difficult. I feel like I'm waving goodbye to my reader.)
    I'm saying this mainly for my own benefit... and to, hopefully, prepare you and your team for my impending patronage.

    • @BookLaunchers
      @BookLaunchers  4 роки тому +1

      Honestly I've struggled to work on my book in lock down - but I have a 3 year old and a husband that has had a really hard time with everything that has happened as it's negatively impacted everything he does. Running my business and handling the extra strain around the house has made writing the book tricky ... BUT I'm going to get back on it this week ... and Saturday I'm going to host a 'write with me' session so maybe it's EXACTLY what you need to finish?? :)

      I will be with you Julie! I'm excited to hear that! Yes, I don't want to minimalize everything that is now much more difficult... three year olds are a handful! We've been cleaning out the attic, and our 20 year old found our stash of his cute childhood drawings of our family. Get your three year old to draw a lot now, and they will be future treasures... memories of these formative times.

    As a subset of video, I have had some good results using a scribe video. For a children's book, you can read and show the whole book.
    Adult non-fiction could scribe short, useful sections.
