Very helpful information to make for a successful book launch!
Source: Clarity Brooke Raybould Jan 18, 2022Tom provided me with very helpful and actionable suggestions as I work to grow my list of website subscribers and increase sales of my novels. His advice was accessible and uncomplicated, which will make implementation much easier for a non-tech person like me. I set up the call seeking actions I could take to help boost sales, and our conversation left me feeling much more confident about how to achieve my goals.
Source: Clarity Mar Fenech Apr 6, 2020Tom was incredibly helpful in my book launch and marketing plan. He was able to provide strategic insight at a high-level of my overall approach, as well as tangible details and specific actions to take at the micro-level. I'm confident that our call together has now doubled the upcoming success of my book, both with quantity of book sales AND the "next sell" monetization aspects of my business!
Source: Clarity Camille Virginia Aug 28, 2019Within a couple days of following Tom's advice, I had $600 in orders in one day, 3 weeks before my event was scheduled to begin. Imagine my surprise going to bed and waking up to unexpected orders from the other side of the world. Thanks Tom!
Source: Clarity Debbie Steinberg-Kuntz Apr 4, 2018Tom helped me refine my thinking on a challenging and pressing topic. Very helpful.
Source: Clarity Tema Frank Mar 11, 2016Tom was generous with his advice, showed great insight and patiently answered all of my amateurish questions. He did all of this with great enthusiasm. I will be calling him again in the future.
Source: Clarity Aaron Dutil Jan 20, 2016Tom not only confirmed the suitability of a PWYW revenue model for my publishing business, but helped me identify how to best integrate it into my website and touched on other potential funding stumbling blocks and advertising strategies to think about as I move forward. Will definitely keep in touch as I grow!
