April 2026 Event: Visual Storytelling for Authors
A strong visual brand doesn't just make you look good online — it actively helps you sell more books and attract more opportunities. In this presentation, Teresa Hnat, a brand photographer and visual storytelling strategist, will show authors how to use professional photos and video to build a brand that words as hard as they do. You’ll learn the key images every author needs, where and how to use them across your website and social media, and how to turn your visual presence into a powerful marketing tool. Your book tells a story. Your brand should too.

As a visual brand strategist with a background in graphic design, she crafts strategic photos and videos that help small business owners get visible. She guides them from start to finish so that they walk away with clarity, confidence, and an action plan of how to use their photos and videos into action.

March 2026 Event: Podcasting for Your Book Launch and Beyond with Megan Dougherty

You'll learn five strategic ways a podcast can help you create buzz, build a network of partners, reach new audiences, engage your most passionate fans with your products and services, and bring your thought leadership into new formats to reach even more people. A podcast can turn your book into an ongoing conversation that drives both launch success and long-term opportunities.

February 2026 Event: LinkedIn for Authors with Natasha Walstra
Your book deserves more than a launch strategy—it deserves a movement, readers who become ambassadors, and the impact you wrote it for. LinkedIn is where that happens. Not through hoping people find you, but through showing up consistently, sharing generously, and building genuine relationships. Natasha Walstra, founder of NearPoint Strategies, will show how to make LinkedIn work for us. You can watch my recent interview with her here.
