12/19/24 The "lazy" way to scale your book business (that actually works)


Reading time: 1 quick minute

Hi Reader!

Yesterday I promised to share that counterintuitive scaling idea that came to me during my "high maintenance" rest days?

Here it is: The most effective way to scale your book business is to do less, but do it deeper.

I know, I know--it might sound completely backwards! But here's what I mean:

Instead of creating 5 different courses, what if you took your best course and made it absolutely extraordinary?

Instead of launching three coaching programs, what if you focused on making one program so transformative that your clients can't stop talking about it?

My "Deep Scale Strategy" is how I've helped authors turn single books into multiple six-figure businesses without burning out.

Think about it like this: Would you rather have 10 shallow streams of income that constantly need your attention, or 2-3 deep rivers that flow steadily with less maintenance?

This is why I'm such a stickler about authors choosing their income streams carefully. When you go deep instead of wide, you actually create more impact with less effort.

Want to see exactly how this works? I share all about it in Building a Million Dollar Book Business--my course that is truly a deep dive into exactly how to build six- and seven-figure income streams (including step-by-step instructions with videos, downloadable agreements and templates, and so much more).

Get the course here: https://honoreecorder.com/bmdbb/ and use code subscriber to save 30%. For less than the cost of a latte a day, you can buy lattes for everyone, every single day, with some serious income streams in place. (Make mine a Cuban!)

I'll see you tomorrow!

Reading time: < 30 seconds As promised, here are Keys #3 and #4—and this is where The Bestselling Book Formula gets really fun. 🔑 Key #3: Easy to Do Every long-term bestseller I analyzed in my pursuit of earning excellence has a reason it was successful--and a formula. This formula isn't vague, and it's an actual, repeatable process readers can follow. (It's also easy. Otherwise your readers can't--won't--do it. Which means no bestselling book for you!)) The SAVERS from The Miracle Morning....

Reading time: < 30 seconds I promised the first two keys in The Bestselling Book Formula and here they are: 🔑 Key #1: Easy to Read First and foremost, your book must be easy to read. Don't get confused, I don't mean "dumbed down," or elementary. Hint: The average American reads at a 7th grade level. Make no mistake, though, even highly educated readers prefer content that doesn't make them "work." Who has ever put down a book and said, "That was just too easy to read." (Not one person. Ever.)...

Reading time: < 30 seconds I read a book recently and could not, for the life of me, remember the name. It had been a gift (no Amazon purchase history), wasn't on Kindle (couldn't look for it that way), and the title wasn't "the best." Really fun book, made an impact, no idea who wrote it or what the title was. Has this ever happened to you? You read a book, loved it, and then tried to recommend it to someone, only to completely blank on the title or the author's name? (Come on, throw me a...
