DWP Episode 01: What is priority #1 for Authorpreneurship?

Dauntless Writing Podcast Episode 1 -What is Priority #1 for Authorpreneurship?

 The million and one things you need to do to be an authorpreneur.

There are a million things to do when being an authorpreneur, marketing, learning the craft, tweeting, getting a fan base, Facebook, seeing actual live people,  even working a full time job is squeezed in there somewhere, marketing the book, planning the book if so inclined, learning online business, building a website, on and on it goes. I’ll be talking about them a lot over the course of this podcast and on this website, but for now…

But what is Priority #1?

We all suffer to some degree of analysis paralysis. To cut the clutter, focus on the one thing you need to do every day to grow your business. It’s the 80/20 rule in action!

So what is the one thing you need to do? Hint: It is what you dread it is.

In this podcast:

  • I will talk about the one thing you need to do to be an authorpreneur;
  • Give some tips on how to go about doing that one thing; and
  • Talk a bit about how I go about doing that one thing.

Think win-win and be dauntless
