Episode Summary

Most aspiring authors start their book with passion and purpose—but along the way, many never finish, and even fewer actually publish. Why?

✅ In today’s episode, I’m breaking down the Top 3 Reasons Most Authors Never Publish Their Book—and more importantly, how to overcome them.

From the hidden costs of publishing to overwhelm and lack of direction, to fear of failure, these obstacles stop authors in their tracks. But they don’t have to.

I’ll share how I raised $91K before publishing my book, funded my entire platform, and helped collaborators like Aly, Liz, and Ava turn sponsorships into massive opportunities.

The truth? Your book doesn’t have to be a financial burden—it can be a business asset that generates revenue before it even hits the shelves.

💡 Tune in to discover how sponsorships, strategic collaborations, and a clear framework can help you bring your book to life—without the financial stress.

Episode Summary: From Startup to Authority – How I Raised $91K Without a Platform

Think you need a big audience to fund your book or build a brand? Think again.

✅ In today’s episode, I’m sharing how I raised $91,000 in just 3 months—before my book was published—and how that one move became the foundation for a 7-figure business. If you’re a startup founder with a story to share, this episode will show you how to turn your message into a fully funded platform, even if you're starting from scratch.

📌 Here’s what you’ll learn:

  • Why claiming the identity of “author” early opens doors to speaking, podcasting, and partnerships

  • How to treat your book as a business asset—and align it with strategic brands and sponsors

  • What to include in your sponsorship kit to raise funding before your book is even finished

💡 Tune in to hear real stories from startup founders like Jillian and Misti, who used the Beyond the Book framework to secure funding, build brand authority, and launch powerful platforms that create long-term revenue.
