Media Kit

Today’s topic: Why Authors Need a Media Kit

Listen below.

Notes from this episode:

The goal of a media kit is to have one place where people can find your information. This can be used for guest blog posts, podcast interviews, speaking engagements, etc.

When the media calls and/or when opportunities open up…will you be ready?

Enjoy this short episode that is an excerpt from a recent Media Kit Workshop we hosted for Christian Book Academy members.

As a member, you get access to our Media Kit template and checklist. Get on our waiting list here: https://christianbookacademy.com

Marketing Templates to Save You Time and Money

You’ve got a book you’re proud of. Now you’re looking for a simpler way to get it into the hands of more readers. One way you can do that is through social media. It’s free to use…however, it can also take up a lot of your time.

Good news!

You can get your social media posts for the next month done in just 90 minutes so that you can reach more readers with your book (without being pushy or salesy) in the Mini-Marketing Messages workshop here: https://minimarketingmessages.com

Watch the Video Below:


We hope this episode encourages and inspires you in your writing.

    Great advice! Best to prepare rather than scrambling to put it together. Thank you!

    Hi dear Shelley & CJ,
    How would this help me in writing my legacy.. I am not sure how this would help me. Thanks for sharing. I still not sure if I will publish my book at the moment as I am still writing it. I have a FB webpage to keep connected with other authors. Finding my way.
    Thanks you, Kay

      Kay – a media kit is used for marketing your book after it is published. 🙂
