Ep 40: How to Sell 2589 Books in 30 Hours (guest: Sam Garcia)
Sam Garcia's first book, Regenerative Business: How to Align Your Business with Nature for More Abundance, Fulfillment, and Impact made quite a (quiet but impactful) splash right out of the gate.
It sold 2,589 copies in its first 30 hours on the market and hit #1 on several (large and relevant) Amazon lists, including Women in Business, Entrepreneurship, and Environmentalism.
It also hit #72 in the entire Kindle store (which boasts millions of titles), and when I checked it was #949 in the entire paperback store.
These are big accomplishments, without doubt.
But did it all happen with nary a plan? Absolutely not.
In this episode of the Write the Damn Book Already podcast, Sam and I chatted about exactly what led to this incredible launch (and how she's planning to keep the momentum going!).
INTERVIEW HIGHLIGHTS
đź’Ą The REAL reason she was able to hit all the charts and make all the sales (hint: it's all about authentic relationship building)
đź’Ą The thought shift that got Sam writing again after a 4-month hiatus (and compelled her to finish the book in the next month)
đź’Ą Sam's plans to continue to ride the "amazing launch" wave (her lack of "hustle attitude" will inspire you, I promise)
đź’Ą The benefit of writing the book you WANT to write, not the one you think you SHOULD write
