Your book's success story starts here.


This course is tailor-made for you if you are:

  • Looking for full funding to cover the costs of producing your book.
  • Want to use crowdfunding as your main marketing effort to launch your book or revive book sales.
  • Are willing to work very hard for 90 days during the campaign pre-launch, launch, and fulfillment phases.
  • Are passionate and dedicated to spreading the word about your new book.

But hold tight – this course isn't the right fit for:

  • "I'll just launch right away" thinkers—crowdfunding requires time, effort, humility, flexibility, and hard work. There is nothing quick or easy about it.
  • Authors who aren't willing to learn or try new things. Successful strategies require stepping outside of your comfort zone, so you need to be ok with a little discomfort.
  • You will learn successful marketing strategies that require you to be front and center. Direct engagement with potential supporters is key. If the mere thought sends shivers down your spine, this adventure might not be your cup of tea.

"I have toyed with doing a Kickstarter for so long but because of fear or not doing it right or doing it well, confusion of where and how to start, what rewards to give, I literally froze.

Until I met Lisa. I would not be starting this campaign had I not met her—no doubt about it. She is an invaluable resource of support and expertise if you are planning to crowdfund!!"

Frequently Asked Questions


How long do I have access to the course?
After enrolling, you have unlimited access to this course for as long as you like - across any and all devices you own.
What if I am unhappy with the course?
If you are unsatisfied with your purchase, contact us in the first 30 days and we will give you a full refund.
How much time will it take me to go through the course?
Watching and listening to the videos will only take a few hours but implementing the strategies, designing the content, and videos for your campaign will take much longer. You should set aside 15-25 hrs/week during the pre-launch phase to work exclusively on your campaign content and strategy.
I'm not sure I have the money...
I understand that spending money on something is a bit scary, but this course saves you time and a ton of wasted effort. You want to maximize every second of your campaign and this course will help you do that. I will teach you all the things that I teach my clients who frequently go on to raise more than $15,000 for their campaigns. The cost of this course is really a fraction of the amount of money you will raise.

This course will give you crystal clear strategies that will help you set a goal that will FUND YOUR BOOK.
