Today my guest is Nick Stephenson. Nick was born and raised in England. He is a fiction author and novelist, writing in the mysteries and thrillers genre. His approach to writing is to hit hard, hit fast, and leave as few spelling errors as possible.
We are discussing how to gain the first 10k readers and what Nick did exactly in order to make full time income from writing fiction books. Nick shares practical and simple tips, which can be replicated easily with even only one written book.
Nick is also speaking at the Self-Publishing Success Summit, which is the best online summit on the topic with amazing line-up. On that summit 37 World-Changing Authors & Entrepreneurs Reveal How to Write, Market & Publish Your First Book AND Use It To Get To 6 Figures

Food for Thought
The statement “The best marketing is writing your next book” is a myth.
N1 focus should be getting more readers sign up to your e-mail list and building relationship with them.
Offer reader magnet they can get in exchange to their e mail address: something related to your books.
Set up marketing system in pace, which later will work on autopilot, so you will have time for writing.

Nick and Ani,
Thank you so much for the list building tips in this episode.
The time I spent as a freelance social media manager, I built a highly responsive list of thousands of subscribers.
But as a new fiction author, I’ve been finding it a lot tougher.
I need to buckle down and get this mailing list thing done right.
Will check out your course, Nick. Thanks!
