Draft Episode for Jul 15, 2025

Publishing your book isn’t the finish line—it’s the starting point. That moment your book becomes available marks the beginning of a new chapter: not just as a writer, but as an author with a message to share and a business to grow. What many authors overlook is that the biggest opportunities come after the book is out in the world. That’s when you can deepen connections with readers, strengthen your brand, and use your book as a powerful tool to drive visibility and revenue. That’s where the Biz Book Pub Hub comes in. We’re a community designed to support authors in all phases of their journey. We offer guidance, resources, and trusted expert partnerships to help you turn your book into a long-term business asset.

Now, I’m excited to introduce our panelists, who are here to share how they’ve used their books to expand their influence, grow their platforms, and make a bigger impact.
