BTB4: Brian Meeks | Fiction & Non-Fiction Authors

Before the Bestseller


Today’s guest is one of my favorite people in self-publishing. He’s a great friend and mentor of mine and is one of the most innovative people I know when it comes to implementing new strategies and technologies.

Brian went from living below the poverty line to being a 6-figure author of both fiction and nonfiction books.

After making it as a fiction author, he then went on to teach and write non-fiction books to help fellow authors make money from their work.

His books all have hundreds of reviews on Amazon. He’s got a Mastering Amazon Ads Facebook group with over 10,000 members

In our episode he talks about how he found his fiction niche and grew his audience in a way that you can replicate, we talk about how he’s become the master of copy and how he got my book to convert at 1 sale for every 6 clicks. We also talk about how he’s build one of the most loyal followings of authors in self publishing.

Stay tuned to the end where Brian talks about how he was table to rank is book in the top 500 of all of amazon for 10 days straight, 5 years after he launched it.
