Transform Books into a Series (Then an Empire)!


Reading Time: 22 seconds

Update: lots of new course students (welcome!) and readers (hi!!). Y'all seem to be loving these tips, and I'm so glad. Remember: you need a strategy to go with tactics. Having a strategy means every action you take works in concert with the other ones. I promise you I'm sharing what I know because I learned the hard way.

Today's tip: Harness the power of book series to build a loyal readership and sustainable income.

Single books can succeed, but a series creates devoted fans who eagerly await your next release. Here are three proven series structures that keep readers engaged:

Subject Series: Build around a central theme, like The Successful Single Mom series, exploring different aspects of your topic in each book.

Path Series: Guide readers through a progressive journey, as we did with Write, Publish & Market Like a Boss—each book builds on the previous one.

Audience-Specific Series: Follow The Miracle Morning model by adapting core content for different target audiences while maintaining your central message.

The beauty of series lies in their compounding effect. Each new book doesn't just generate its own sales—it drives readers back to discover your previous titles and creates anticipation for future releases.

Ready to transform your single books into a thriving series empire? The Building a Million Dollar Book Business Course reveals the complete framework for crafting series that captivate readers and generate consistent income. You'll learn how to choose the right structure, identify potential co-authors, and create templates that streamline your series creation process.

Don't let your books exist in isolation. Discover how to build series that keep readers—and revenue—flowing consistently.

Reading Time: 47 seconds I'm sure some of you will hate this strategy, and that's totally fine. It's important to engage in the tactics that work best for your book, based on solid strategy. If gifting your book isn't a great idea for your book, don't do it. But if it is, you will want to trust me when I say giving it away is a solid and effective idea.
