Welcome to another Empowering Lesson, which will teach you strategies for constructing a powerful book.

If you are new to my work and platform, I am Felecia Killings, Founder of The Felecia Killings Foundation. My team and I work with inspirational authors to help them build a business or ministry around their authorship.

I’ve developed advanced lessons that transform average writers into dynamic writerpreneurs. And through my ongoing training, I teach my clients and scholars how to create careers as professional Writerpreneurs. These lessons and more are housed inside our award-winning, online school, LiyahAmore University. 

In this lesson, I provide a video teaching that focuses on helping new fiction writers get started with their manuscripts.

In this 17-minute presentation, you will learn about:

1. Identifying the theme for your book
2. Selecting the best storyline that fits within that theme
3. Creating an opening that captivates your reader's attention

In addition, you will learn about selecting the right type of narrator for your book, who will convey all the reader needs to remain locked into your story.

​Now, let's get started!

Welcome to this Empowering Guide, which will teach you the perfect method for promoting your new book to wider audiences, even if you fear promoting yourself.

Now, about a year ago, I noticed a significant gap within the Self-Publishing industry. Since 2011, I have worked with Christian Authors, Speakers, and Spiritual Leaders as their writing coach and content editor. I helped new writers craft compelling stories and educational books that pulled from their life’s experiences. As they completed their works for their small audiences, I realized not much more came from their platform other than the “Buy my newest book” posts. 

A small percentage of my clients and scholars managed to make the Best-Seller’s list. Some managed to land speaking engagements, which led to more book sales. But at some point, the numbers dropped. As a result, most authors simply quit their mission and assignment, because the results weren’t what they expected.

After observing this behavior for 18 months, I realized Authors had another obstacle before them. While they mastered publishing their first or second books, they did not know how to scale their works to reach the masses organically. And that’s when I began working on new content to teach them not only how to build a business or ministry around their authorship, but to also position their works so they reach millions.

The key to such success comes strictly by implementing an aggressive marketing plan that involves content creation and strategic brand partnerships. As I teach my scholars inside LiyahAmore University, by incorporating blogging, video marketing, social media domination, and influencer marketing, their platforms can easily reach millions of people each year.

And I know what I speak.

Recently, I tapped into the Twitter space to share my messages with new audiences. Within a couple months, my content caught the attention of celebrities, conservative influencers, and politicians. When they retweeted my content on their platforms, my following jumped from 300 to 7,000+ in a matter of months. 

Today, because of my active engagement on the app, I generate 1.0M - 2.2M monthly impressions organically. This means I do not have to pay-promote my content to reach the people I desire. I’ve built a tribe on Twitter; and collectively, my platform, coupled with the other influencers in our circle, empowers 500,000+ followers.

My social media presence is proof that even with a small following (compared to the people I’m connected to), my voice still has impact. And as more people embrace the messages, my book sales jump. Of course, book sales are just small ticket items within The Foundation. I use these resources to establish credibility and authority in this space. My focus isn’t on book sales alone but rather speaking engagements, enrollment into LiyahAmore University, and more.

But I could not have this expanding platform if I feared promoting my content. I could not experience this kind of impact if I didn’t push myself to become public. 

That’s key, and something you must embrace if you desire to create a career as a Writerpreneur.

Too often, fear cripples a Writerpreneur’s impact. And while defeating fear is easier said than done, there is a method you can use right now to break that stronghold … even without you saying a single word.

In this Empowering Guide, I want to teach you this remarkable strategy. Recently, I’ve added a new marketing service to The Foundation as a type of solution for authors like you who fear self-promotion.

The strategy is called “influencer marketing,” and it is the fastest method for bolstering your platform, book, and brand to a wider audience.

In this complete guide, you will learn about:

• The history of influencer marketing
  
• The role it plays in social media today
  
• The different levels of influencer marketing (and which ones you need to leverage)
  
• The stats behind influencer marketing and why it continues to grow
  
• How Writerpreneurs can leverage influencer marketing and reach the masses without saying a single word
  
• And how The Foundation can help you bolster your presence STARTING NOW!
  

So, without delay, let’s get straight into this teaching.

Welcome to the LiyahAmore University Blog, a place where you can receive FREE lessons from our award-winning, book-publishing school.

I am Felecia Killings, Award-Winning Coach and Executive Director of LiyahAmore University. Our online program is designed to empower women like you to build an online business or virtual ministry around your authorship.

Since 2016 when we first launched the school, we've developed a holistic, empowering school that helps women manifest their vision for the next 25 years. By using their stories, they learn to build an economic structure that provides long-lasting, financial opportunities to them and their families.

Our online school is a 6-12 month program; and to give you an idea of the type of training our clients receive, we publish FREE lessons on this blog.

For today's Empowering Post, I want to show you how successful writerpreneurs -- writers who employ enterpreneurial endeavors to their work -- can generate income for their venture. This lesson is a behind-the-scenes look at how I generated my first $100,000 as a full-time writerpreneur. The strategies I used will be most useful to you this year, especially if you're serious about your authorship.

When I first launched my movement for writerpreneurs in 2016, one of the first lessons I taught the women focused on wealth.

Needless to say, that message received fierce backlash from new inspirational authors. It’s no different than when Believers become enraged with the “Prosperity Gospel” and the messengers who preach that word.

I focused on this topic, not because I wanted to anger my newly-formed audience, but because I had to prepare their minds for financial increase if they intended to become life-long authors.

Having a calling does not mean you magically manifest money whenever you want it. Your calling does not guarantee a salary. Neither does wishful thinking.

And when you step out in faith to fulfill the mission God gave you, it’s imperative you also consider how you will generate income to sustain you.

This is the message I brought to new writerpreneurs back in 2016.

Over time, the message was received. Each day, I blogged about my own journey, sharing the lessons that helped me reach certain financial goals. And before long, more writerpreneurs adopted the lessons for their own ministries and businesses.

In this Empowering Post, I will show you how wealth circulated into my virtual ministry and online business. And I will teach you how the principles I learned along the way shaped the platform I have today. You can apply the same strategies for your work.
