Thanks @Robert Redden for letting me create a shoppable video for your book Solomon The Littlest Bear. I think it's a fantastic children's book. For those of you wondering, this is a shoppable video. It is NOT the same as a customer review, but it allows me as an Amazon Influencer to tag your book to your product page, so people can actually see in video content what your book looks like, and hear a genuine overview based on my own thoughts. If you already have a book and you want to have a shoppable video posted about it. For a limited time, I am offering these in my classroom for only $50, which includes me purchasing your book on Amazon. This promo will only be available during July then the price will increase. 👉 👉 Book Your Shoppable Video Here

In this short video, I am sharing how powerful a video review of your book can be. The truth is, getting video reviews is not as simple as it seems. However, you can work with an Amazon influencer to create what's called a shoppable video. A shoppable video is not the same as a customer review, but it is a way to actually get a video about your book posted up on your book listing page on Amazon. This is going to give your potential buyers an opportunity to see what your physical book actually looks like, instead of just trying to imagine it from a 2D image. If this is something you want to take advantage of I am only offering this pricing of $50 for the month of July. This includes me purchasing your book. 👉 ORDER YOUR SHOPPABLE VIDEO HERE

If you don’t yet have a book listed in our Community Book Directory, the good news is that this is a completely free opportunity available to community members! I also want to apologize if you previously reached out to have your book added and I didn’t get a chance to update the directory. As the community has grown, keeping up with submissions manually became a little challenging—but I recently made a big improvement to the process! I built an AI agent using Claude that can now help automatically process submissions and update the book directory. 🤖 This should make it much easier and faster to keep the directory current while giving more of our authors an opportunity to showcase their work. To help ensure that all authors in the community have an opportunity to gain visibility, please limit your submission to one book per author. Choose the book you would most like the community to discover! Ready to get your book featured? Fill out the submission form below, and your book will be added to the directory. 👇 🔗 Submit Your Book Here 📚💜

Submitted my book for paperback this afternoon. Now I patiently wait the up to 72 hours. It was a struggle getting it formatted my first time, Claude was not listening well today, but I did it! 😀 **UPDATE - paperback is live already woot woot** Thanks for the encouragement

Is imposter syndrome stopping you from putting your book out into the world? I know this is a common challenge that many aspiring authors face. It’s that internal voice constantly creating doubt: Who is actually going to read this book? Who made you the expert to speak on this topic? What will readers think? What if I get a negative review? The truth is, you don’t have to feel completely confident before you publish your book. Confidence often comes after you take action—not before. Here are three ways to quiet some of that inner chatter: 1️⃣ Focus on the reader you can help. Instead of asking, “Who am I to write this book?” ask, “Who could benefit from what I know?” You don’t have to know everything or be the world’s leading expert. You may simply be a few steps ahead of the person who needs your knowledge, experience, perspective, or story. 2️⃣ Stop expecting your first book to be perfect. Your first book is not supposed to represent the final version of you as an author. It represents where you are right now. You will continue learning, improving, and growing with every book you publish. Give yourself permission to create something valuable without expecting perfection. 3️⃣ Separate fear from facts. Imposter syndrome often speaks in worst-case scenarios. Instead of assuming no one will read your book or everyone will criticize it, look at the facts. You had an idea for a reason. You have experiences, knowledge, creativity, or a message worth sharing. Fear is a feeling—not proof that you aren’t ready. Now, think about what can happen when you stop allowing self-doubt to keep your book unfinished: 📚 You become a published author. Your book is no longer sitting in a document, notebook, or folder waiting for “someday.” It becomes a real accomplishment that you can hold in your hands and share with others. 💡 Your book can make an impact. Your words could educate someone, encourage them, entertain them, help them feel understood, or give them the solution they have been searching for. But your book cannot help anyone if it never makes it out into the world.
