One of the smartest moves you can make as an author or speaker is to surround yourself with others who are walking a similar path. Whether you’re planning a book, growing your platform, or refining your message, there’s real value in connecting with people who get it—and who are willing to share what’s working for them.

That’s exactly what you’ll find at the Biz Book Pub Hub. Join us for our free virtual networking events, where entrepreneurial authors and speakers come together to swap strategies, celebrate wins, and build meaningful connections.

Check it out at www.BizBookPubHub.com and get plugged into a community that knows how to turn ideas into impact.

And now, let’s hear from today’s panel…

Chris Johnson wrote “The Leadership Pause: Sharpen Your Attention, Deepen Your Presence, and Navigate the Future,” a thoughtful guide that helps leaders slow down, focus their attention, and reconnect with their purpose in order to lead more effectively and sustainably.

Vera Milan Gervais wrote “The Wordz We Wear: How to show up with confidence and create your best life,” a powerful exploration of how the words we use shape our self-image, communication, and confidence—designed to help readers show up with clarity and authenticity.

Please join me in welcoming Chris and Vera.

In this episode, we discuss the following:

🟠 Build A Launch Team: Use a structured launch team and a sequence of emails, not a one-and-done ask.

🟠 Keep Asking For Reviews: Make review requests an ongoing habit, not a launch-week task you abandon.

🟠 No “Review Swaps”: Encourage reviews ethically, without crossing lines that violate platform rules.

🟠 Add A Discussion Guide Bonus: Give readers a way to use the book with their team, so it drives action.

🟠 Track Success Through Referrals: Measure outcomes by the conversations and referrals the book creates.
