Get your social media content for the next month done in just 90 minutes so that you can reach more readers with your book (without being pushy or salesy)
You’ve got a book you’re proud of. Now you’re looking for a simpler way to get it into the hands of more readers.
You've thought about trying Amazon ads...
But it feels even more confusing and overwhelming than social media...without any guarantee of sales. Plus, you aren't sure you're ready to invest more money into your book just yet.
You've thought about pitching podcast hosts...
To get interviewed and featured to their audience but you don’t know where to start. Plus, just thinking about speaking (even when it’s audio only) terrifies you a little...or maybe even a lot.
You’ve thought about doing a book promotion or sale...
Because your initial book launch had some sales but everything has seemed to fizzle out since. You feel stuck and unsure of how to create any momentum moving forward.
You want to grow your audience and sell more books... without spending a ton of money on ads or spending all day on social media.
Here's a crazy question for you.
What if you could reach more readers with the message inside your book (for free) with just a few simple social media posts a week...nothing pushy or salesy?
Sound too good to be true?
Hang tight. I'm going to show you exactly how.
Here’s the deal with using social media to sell books.
Your audience doesn’t expect (or want) you to post every day. However, if they don't know your book exists, they won't be able to buy it...right?
Posting the same “buy my book” posts over and over will often get ignored and won't stop the scroll. You need to make offers to your audience, but there is a better way.
With a few simple posts worded in a certain way, you can get your audience raising their hand, showing interest, and asking you to send them more information about your book(s).
...and that’s where Mini-Marketing Messages comes in.
Step #1

I love helping authors sell more books because I know that behind each book sale is a real person that God can impact for eternity with the message of your book...and the relationship you build with them.
Hey! I'm Shelley Hitz. Since 2008, my husband CJ and I have written and published over 70 books through our independent publishing company, Body and Soul Publishing.
And we're still blown away by the fact that our books can reach people with the gospel around the world that we have never met. We are not famous or well known and yet in just 13 years, our books have impacted almost a million lives.
We are humbled and amazed at all God has done and continues to do with our small steps of obedience to write the books He has put on our hearts.
Since 2010, we have mentored writers and now help you take the courageous step of marketing your books.

Still Have Questions? We Have Answers...
What if I’m in the process of writing my book?
This workshop is created for authors who already have a book. However, we have had writers take the workshop who were in the process of writing their book and they found it helpful.
What if I have a small audience? Will this still work for me?
Yes, you don’t have to have a large audience to use these strategies. Instead of focusing on numbers (which often leads to comparison), I encourage you to focus on serving and helping your audience.
What if I already post for my business? Will this help me create posts for my book(s) as well?
If you are consistently posting for your business this will be the perfect addition to what you’re already doing. It can also help you tweak your current posts to be even more effective.
I recommend sprinkling in the promotional posts about your books with your regular business content.
Where do I post? Do I need a Facebook business page or can I do this with a profile? What about Instagram?
I actually recommend starting with your Facebook profile for many reasons we’ll cover in the workshop. However, you can post to both your profile and a page and vary what you post on each. If Instagram is your primary platform, then you can use Instagram. However, I do focus on using a Facebook profile and/or page in this workshop.
How much time will I need to invest?
In just 90-minutes, you will have your social media posts created and scheduled for the next month. This implementation time is built into the workshop so you can actually get it done and off your plate to free up your mind for other things.
Plus, the training is broken down into easy-to-digest videos you can fit into your busy life.
How long do I have access?
You'll keep ongoing access to the workshop, bonuses and templates.
Therefore, you can implement it at your own pace and come back to the training each month if you want.

More Feedback and Results from Writers
For the first time since I started writing, I got a ton of engagement. 4 people agreed to review my book and I sold 8 books directly from what I learned in this training. Now I'm postured to consistently post and engage on social media and it's stress-free!
- Dak Frederick, published author
"One of the best things I've ever done. The templates she gave for Canva were very helpful.
It was all fantastic. I highly recommend it."
- Kimberley Payne, published author
"The price was right! I have spent hundreds of dollars on courses that didn't provide as much information as Shelley's does. And it got me back into the right marketing mindset with a renewed sense of my marketing abilities. I got my marketing mojo back. I wanted to get my mojo back God's way and Shelley is a God-focused marketer. It's a win-win for me.
I highly recommend you take the workshop. You won't be disappointed."
- Sharon Buck, published author
The Crossroads
Right now you're standing at a crossroads.
If you've read this far, you know how this workshop can help you use social media for free to reach more readers with the message of your book. You have seen the value and all that you get when you sign up.
And you have two choices.
1. You can continue down the road you've been on - marketing your book and trying to figure everything out by yourself. This path often leads to frustration and overwhelm.
2. Or you can sign up for our workshop today and decide to do something different. Decide to get the training you need and have a clear path to follow. Go from confusion to clarity. This can be the year you create real connections with your audience (not necessarily more content) so that God can use the message of your book to impact lives.
Which will it be?
Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and He will give you everything you need. Matthew 6:33 (NLT)
