Author Platform Coaching

A writing coach helps you get your words on the page. A book coach helps you hone your concept and assists with the editing or proofreading of your manuscript. An author platform coach does all of the above while guiding you in establishing an audience eager to read your book, a platform that allows the media to find you and a satisfying writing career that goes beyond the book.

Karlee Vincent was an unknown, unpublished writer when she hired Joey Garcia to be her author platform coach. Within 12 months, Karlee became a nationally-recognized expert sought after by the media and literary agents.

Learning to craft media-worthy sound bites isn’t easy but mastering this skill can turn you into an author who media outlets are eager to interview.
