174: What Book Marketing has to do with Glass Blowing: Reflecting on Free Time’s 1-Year Bookiversary 🥂
🎉 This week marks the one-year bookiversary of Free Time making its way into the world, and the two-year podiversary of launching this show. 🥂 As I reach these milestones, a question looms: Has the book writing, launching, and marketing been a success, as I would define it?
In today’s solo, let’s ride the mindset rollercoaster of launching something new into the world, and I share specific one-year sales stats for those who are curious—similar to episode 096: Book Sales Stats—One Month Post-Launch 🎉 that I know many of you appreciated :) But first: there's an important detour that we need to take. Listen in to find out and join me for the journey.
🌟 3 Key Takeaways:
📝 Permission: Define success in a way that lifts your spirits, that helps you enjoy the vulnerable process of putting your creative work into the world.
✅ Do (or Delegate) This Next: Looking back on the last year, make a list to celebrate all the wins—large and small—that you’ve experienced in your business (or for any one creative project). Bonus: when you hit a big milestone or busiversary moment, do something fun to mark the occasion!
Super bonus: submit your business and/or any products (like a book or podcast) for industry awards. Most of the time, they don’t just fall from the sky—my dad and I call these Gretsky’s, after hockey player Wayne Gretsky’s famous line that, “You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take.”
