First Bestseller

“Even though I’ve taken other book marketing courses, there is plenty of information in this course I hadn’t learned anywhere else. In fact, this may be the only book marketing course you’ll need – it’s that comprehensive! John is an excellent teacher, incorporating humour and clear explanations to bring you book marketing strategies for all levels of authors from the beginner, launching their first book, to the seasoned author launching their fiftieth. I will definitely be revisiting this course!”

“This course has been a joy to complete. John’s clear and encouraging teaching style (he’s a natural, with a lot of professional experience) has helped me see the big picture of what I have to do – starting right now! – to launch my book in the spring of 2020. John has packed the content with practical tips (I have over 200 actionable points on my list!) and reinforced it with attractive, informative handouts. The modules are arranged in a logical sequence and broken down into short consecutive videos reinforced by amusing but pertinent Q&As, so that even for people who work full time, you can pick the course up for short periods to fit around your own schedule. I have learnt a ton and had my mind expanded to new possibilities in every direction. Inspiring, John – thanks!”

“One of the best courses I’ve ever taken, on any topic. Specific, concrete information and examples you can act on. No fluff or vague generalities. This course will save you hours of researching various aspects of book marketing, such as book cover design, obtaining reviews, timing of steps, etc. If you’re serious about getting out there and selling your book, then the return on investment of taking this course is huge.”

“John is so down to earth and unassuming; it’s like an experienced friend came to lend a book marketing hand. My book has been out for almost a year. I wish I’d had listened to this last year. I will certainly take his advice as I begin to market my next book which I just completed. I’ve taken other courses including during my MFA at Columbia University and this is far superior to all of them. Using the course’s advice, I put my book, “Reinventing Jenna Rose,” up for a Goodreads giveaway. I was really nervous doing so. There is one week left and 1709 people have it on their-“to-read shelf.” And 1728 people have signed up. It’s more of a response than I’ve gotten from any other form of marketing — Kirkus, book club talks, bookstore talks or New York Review Ads, and private events. Kudos on this course.”

“I like that there are different options on how you want to market books. The PDF’s are priceless so I have been saving them on my desktop for quick reference. ”

“I am learning so much from this course. I was so afraid I would just be overwhelmed with all that needs to be done, but John breaks it down into doable steps that I’m eager to tackle. I’m really enjoying the course. ”

“I really appreciate the amount of precious information and personal opinion shared by John. This course is a valuable resource for aspiring and new authors. Best of all, you can watch the classes again before your next book!”

“Excellent presentation and information!”

“In a detailed, well-organized, and fully-thought-out presentation, John Fox, creator of BookFox, gives an invaluable course on book marketing in Your First Bestseller. From A to Z, soup to nuts, he covers it all with ease and humor. It is a “must read” for anyone looking to publish. I might not feel totally confident in tackling the marketing of my indie novel, but I certainly feel equipped to give it my best shot! Thank you John Fox!”

“This marketing course is a bestseller to make bestsellers! I loved it and can’t wait to begin putting what John taught us into practice. Thank you!”

“I’m a new author and this course was perfect for what I needed at this time. It provided an overview of literally every way possible to market and promote a book, which made me think outside the box with many new ideas evolving. Whether a novice or experienced author, it also provided specific and practical suggestions for what to do with each of the ideas.”

“WHEW… WOW… OMG… AMAZING!!!!! I LOVED THE ENTIRE COURSE! I took this course to become more familiar with book marketing because I am co-writing a book with someone who has already had several books published. This will help me lay out a great marketing plan/strategy. I loved the depth of information, the challenge, and the humor. Although I went through the videos with minimal breaks, the plan is for me to take this course over (a few times) before I publish my first solo book. So much to take in. Thank you for providing such a great course. Your heart to help authors beats throughout each lesson!!! ”

The course makes marketing attainable. I started knowing nothing, but with step-by-step guidance from the course, I have gained confidence to pursue marketing. This course has empowered me. I am very grateful for it.
