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
💥 The REAL reason she was able to hit all the charts and make all the sales (hint: it's all about authentic relationship building)
💥 The thought shift that got Sam writing again after a 4-month hiatus (and compelled her to finish the book in the next month)
💥 Sam's plans to continue to ride the "amazing launch" wave (her lack of "hustle attitude" will inspire you, I promise)
💥 The benefit of writing the book you WANT to write, not the one you think you SHOULD write
