What this work has produced.

Most of what we write is invisible by design. It carries the author's name and not ours, and a good deal of it sits behind an email address. What follows is the part we can show.

A method taught in the room and in the book, with nothing a reader could take away and work through on their own.

Three companion workbooks drawn from his method, four landing pages built to deliver them, a guide behind each page, and the email campaign that carries readers through all of it.

The method now runs as a set of assets his readers can use without him in the room, and each landing page has a guide behind it.

I thought writing our book would be the hard part. It turns out that planning and executing a marketing plan is the hard part. We could never have achieved a #1 new release in Trauma Psychology on Amazon without Elizabeth Javor of The Book Marketing Source. She was always professional, smart, helpful, and, dare I say, nice. She contributed to our book in so many meaningful ways. You cannot go wrong with Elizabeth and her team.

My challenge was basic, but one that I have found keeps many authors up at night: how can I package together my work so that others will pay attention? That's where Elizabeth Javor comes in. Fast forward, and I was a featured guest on a CBS Morning Show affiliate.

Rod Berger, Psy.D., Author, The Narrative Edge (Wiley)

Elizabeth's recommendations work. In the first 60 days, I increased the average number of clients clicking on my website by 34%. As a nonfiction author who was truly self-published, I was impressed by how effective her guidance was.

Business Author, Healthcare

Marketing a faith-based nonfiction book requires care and clarity. The Book Marketing Source helped me sharpen my message and build a simple path that moved readers from interest to action. In just 60 days, my website click-throughs increased by 13% and my email sign-ups climbed 22%. The strategy was disciplined, measurable, and aligned with my values.

HOW WE MEASURE

The four numbers we watch

None of these is a promise. They are the readings that tell us whether the pathway is working, and you see all four.

01

Opt-in rate

The share of readers who take the companion asset. This is the first honest test of whether the book and the offer are aimed at the same person.

02

Click-throughs to your site

Whether readers are moving from the book and the emails to the place where they can hire you.

03

Sequence completion

How far subscribers get through the emails, which tells us whether the argument holds all the way to the end.

04
