We’re back with another episode of our Friday Sessions featuring Laura Russom, Director of Author Success.

We explore effective strategies for engaging with podcasts and building relationships with micro-influencers, emphasizing the importance of having a solid system for content creation. Additionally, we talk about finding the right balance between quality and quantity in marketing outreach, offering tips for boosting visibility while maintaining a practical focus on delivering real value to readers.
