CREATE YOUR WRITER PLATFORM

A step-by-step digital course that shows you simple yet powerful ways to optimise your digital presence and reach MORE of your dream audience!

In 2023, nonfiction writers reach their readers in very different ways to just 20 or 30 years ago. It’s now common to sell books and stories (and anything, really) from our online presence… whether it’s:

⭐ A blog post

⭐ Your website

⭐ An article or essay in on online outlet

⭐ An email newsletter

⭐ A social media post

The internet has changed the world for creatives like you and me – you can now IMMEDIATELY reach people ACTIVELY searching for your expertise – and a professional reputation which once would have taken years to build, can now (literally) amplify in minutes. 

Get an overview of why I created this programme and what it includes in the video below 👇

Not-so-long-ago you needed to already have an agent and decades of writing experience to reach top publishers. But in the late 1990s with the advance of the internet, a new term sprouted up in nonfiction publishing: author platform. Agents and editors wanted to see how a potential author was placed to reach their target audience.
But having a platform is not just necessary to get a book deal. You can’t sell anything in this current era unless you have SOME kind of digital presence – not even an essay or an article!
Your writer’s platform is the sum total of your network, connections and visibility online.
And the BEST news is that a writer who creates a strategic online platform can skip the queue to a book deal and sell more of their work!

I did it – and you can, too.

INTRODUCING…CREATE YOUR WRITER PLATFORM

A step-by-step digital program that gives writers the strategy to sell their work online!

Create your Writer Platform shows you the simple steps you need to take to set up an effective online presence to sell more of your work.

In Create Your Writer Platform I teach you the strategy behind each of these important digital ‘assets’, and how to set each one up effectively:
1: Your writer website
2: Your social media presence
3: A blog
4: An email newsletter
5: I also give you some basic training on Search Engine Optimisation (AKA how to get seen on google!)

If all of this is overwhelming to you, I understand. The strategies I teach can be implemented in a day or a week so you can start building your confidence and making sales ASAP.

IF YOU’RE LIKE MANY WRITERS I SPEAK TO, YOU WRONGLY ASSUME…

  • ‘Platform’ means millions of followers on social media

  • Platform is going to take a lot of time, money and / or tech know-how

  • Their website or social channels are set up just fine, thank you (when actually, they’re not)

  • Having a big platform means spending all of your time online. But while it may take a few weeks to get things organised, once you set these ‘assets’ up correctly, it means you reach more people in far less time!

THE TRUTH IS, EVERY NONFICTION WRITER WHO WANTS TO SELL THEIR WORK NEEDS AN ONLINE PLATFORM

But it doesn’t need to be complicated!
The first place ANYONE looks for information in 2022 is Google.
By strategically creating your writer platform, you position yourself well with potential publishers, AND get found by those who want your expertise with a few simple tweaks online!

Wouldn’t it be wonderful if someone searched for help for the EXACT thing that you love to write about, and YOU were the first person who came up? This is all possible when you have an effective writer platform!

You don’t want to send an editor, a publisher or potential paying client to a poorly-presented website. People make decisions within a nanosecond of viewing your site or your social channels, make sure you’re presenting yourself in the best possible light! 

IN CREATE YOUR WRITER PLATFORM, YOU’LL LEARN…

🌟 The quick fix (which costs zero dollars) to look professional on google while you’re getting your website set up

🌟 The basics of Google so that whether you’re selling a writing service, a manuscript, a digital product, coaching or anything else –  you’re reaching people who want to buy what you offer!

🌟 How to save thousands on advertising (and lop years off your publishing timeline) by learning effective online engagement strategies to build an online audience that don’t cost a cent

🌟 How to position yourself professionally as a writer online, EVEN if you’ve never been published!

🌟 Why blogging is ‘still a thing’ in 2022 and how to set up an SEO-optimised blog step-by-step (templates and checklists from my own process included!)

Whether you’re writing a memoir or any other type of nonfiction, having an effective online writer’s platform is absolutely essential if you want to get published.

AND – everything you learn in Create Your Writer Platform will help you to sell more copies of your book when it IS published! Why? Because a great platform amplifies your reach to a bigger audience of people who WANT your specific niche!

If you’re done ‘shouting into the void’ with your blogs, your website or your social media channels or only having engagement from family and friends, then this is for you.

CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

Louisa can see possibilities for you that you can’t see because you’re too close to it all. She incorporates book publicity and author know-how with online marketing which is a really unique combination. The whole plan was so brilliant. Louisa came up with a GENIUS marketing strategy to promote my upcoming book launch and online business both at the same time.
Mary Adkins, HarperCollins author

If you’ve never experienced it before, publishing can seem like an enigma, the sort of industry that’s closed to all but insiders. Louisa knows traditional publishing, both as an author and from the back end where agents, editors and sales teams operate. She has a knack for coming up with new ways to ensure your manuscript gets in front of the right people.
Carrie Hutchinson, award-winning travel writer, ghostwriter & editor

Louisa was a fabulous editorial support, and she’s direct and coherent in the advice she offers which has been honed by her years of experience

WHAT’S THE VALUE OF AN EFFECTIVE WRITER PLATFORM?

  • An essay, article or paid blog post = $500 – $2000
    Just ONE of the tweaks I teach you could see you successfully selling an article or essay!

  • A nonfiction book advance = $5000 to $300 000
    To sell your nonfiction book to a traditional publisher, you NEED a platform. Book advances vary from 4 to 6 figures and the price goes up depending on particulars of your platform. Learn what publishers look for in ‘platform’ (it’s not millions of followers, I promise!) to and position yourself for success.

  • Network and Connections = Priceless
    Every good thing that’s happened in my career in the last 10 years has come from relationships I built online. There’s nothing like finding your like-minded people, and this is what happens naturally when you create a writer platform in line with YOUR authentic personality and expertise!

  • Brand and affiliate partnerships = $1-300K
    Brands, personalities and commercial entities pay big bucks to affiliates and sponsors. While I don’t teach you these advanced online business strategies in Create Your Writer Platform, if you’re a member of any kind of partnership program, you’ll make more sales from more traffic to your website.

CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

I engaged Louisa on a very complicated and technical book project. She not only delivered on the promised turnaround, she identified and noted a few issues that were beyond the scope of what I engaged her for. Issues that, once corrected, significantly improved the quality of the book. I’ve since engaged her for four further book projects. Thank you Louisa!
Kelly Exeter, CEO of Swish Publishing

Louisa is not only a great writer, she really understands all the other aspects of online business (the big important things as well as the subtle nuances a lot of people miss!) and incorporates that into her work too. So you get way more than “just good copy!”
Nina Christian, CEO of award-winning marketing company Braveda

I wouldn’t be here if it weren’t for your expert guidance at the very start of my journey. Thank you so much Louisa
Anita East, cosmetician & bestselling author of Beautiful Unique Faces
