VIP Coaching with Shelley Hitz
(Limited Spots Available)
Who would best benefit from one-on-one coaching with me?
Authors, of course!
However, there are certain authors that will benefit the most from my expertise including:
- Any author who needs a plan, goals, and accountability to get their book DONE!! I’m a “get it done” author coach who helps you get the first draft out of your head and onto paper in record time.
- Any author who feels stuck in a certain part of writing, publishing or marketing their book.
- Authors who want to self-publish their books on their own and/or set up an independent publishing company.
- Authors who are setting up their online author platform to sell more books without being pushy or self-promotional.
- Authors who want to improve their online book marketing efforts without spending all their time marketing.
- Authors who are setting up a book launch and want to sell more books and reach Amazon bestseller status in their categories.
- Authors who want to diversify their income through digital information products.
My expertise is online book marketing including book launches, blogs/websites, e-mail marketing, social media marketing, developing digital information products, online group promotions, etc.. However, I am also experienced with writing nonfiction books, organizing and publishing anthologies (books with several contributors), and working with Christian authors.
Why hire me? Personally, I have sold over 103,000 books. In addition to that, over half a million of my books have been downloaded for free on major eBook platforms. I feel so incredibly thankful to God for all He has blessed us to do and am now sharing my expertise with other authors.
“Wow! I received much more than I expected from the coaching session today. It’s the best investment I’ve ever made in marketing.
The thing I appreciated the most was that the session was truly a ‘personal coaching session.’ Although you helped me develop a strategy, it was built around my strengths and resources. I had many ideas, but you brought them together strategically and enabled me to prioritize what is needed now what is needed in the near future. Great stuff!
As someone who has fourteen books published, this has been an incredible benefit to me – not just for the Light in the Darkness series that I’m releasing in January, but also any future projects that I hope to create. Thanks so much!”

What exactly do you get?
ONE-ON-ONE HELP: There are two options available on a VERY limited availability as there is only one of me to go around. However, I do want to offer opportunities to help authors with their specific needs as time allows. Therefore, I am offering both one-time coaching sessions as well as on-going monthly coaching. Prices may increase, but once you are locked into a monthly coaching price, you will continue at that price as long as you continue coaching with me.
SPECIFIC TO YOU: Most of my books and training programs are general in nature. However, this coaching will be specific to you and your needs.
HONESTY: Please know that I will be honest with you. This means I will let you know what you are doing well. However, this may also mean that I will share something with you during your coaching sessions that you do not want to hear. I will share these things with you in a constructive way to help make you an even more successful author. But, this requires that you have a teachable spirit and are willing to take my advice.
RESOURCES: I will share with you the resources and tools that can help you move forward towards your goals. If I have a contact or resource I think would be a good fit for you, I will share it with you.
ACCOUNTABILITY: If you choose the ongoing monthly coaching, you will also receive accountability from me to reach your goals.

“I want to thank you for your patience and for hanging in there with me. My book sales are the best so far this month and I attribute that to your help; thank you. You are the real deal!”
Robert Blick, Author

“I owe a great debt of gratitude to Shelley Hitz for helping to launch my writing career. Before I sold any copies of my first book Shelley took me under her wing. She was a beacon for me when I had no idea what to do next or where to start when I needed to market.
Without her expert advice I would not be where I am today. She read my book and made recommendations on where to start promoting. She taught me how to read my Amazon sales page and how to use Amazon’s Author central to track promotions and sales. Her coaching not only resulted in book sales, but Shelley also played a major role in launching my career.
Today I am making money from my writing and I can launch a book and market effectively using her strategies. I recommend her highly to any author just getting started. She knows her business and I am forever grateful for her help.”
