Recommended Resources
If I love something, I freaking LOVE it, and I only recommend products and companies I believe in. Here are a few of my favorite business and writing resources that I can’t shut up about. By clicking the links below, at no cost to you, I may receive some $$$ in my pocket.
bookshop
You didn’t think I’d really be a book coach who didn’t recommend books, did you?
Here’s my collection of books I believe every writer should have. It’s the same list I give to my clients, and they’ve said these are some of THE most valuable resources for demystifying the writing and publishing process.
DUBSADO
I’m a minimalist at heart, and it’s the main reason I chose Dubsado as my CRM. From client portals to call schedulers and invoices, everything is in one place.
If you’re looking to create a cohesive experience for your business, this is a great choice. They also offer a handful of free calls a month for members, if you need additional support.
Plus, by clicking below, you’ll get 20% off your first month or year.
FLODESK
Email is one of my favorite things to chat about, and I believe every food creator should leverage the opportunities that come with it.
Basically, it’s a story and money-making machine that can serve you beyond the book deal.
Flodesk has changed EVERYTHING for me. I used to have a clunky email provider who dinged me for growth. But with Flodesk, it’s a flat monthly fee, super easy to use, and allows me to also use their Checkouts feature, so I can sell digital products and services.
It’s pretty stellar, and by clicking the link below, you get 50% off your first year.
operation find an agent
This is a freaking steal. Cookbook author and co-host of the Everything Cookbooks podcast, Kristin Donnelly, has created a killer mini-course walking you through how to find your dream agent.
Packed with exercises, actionable advice and a curated list of cookbook agents, it’s a win all-around.
There’s also a bonus interview with Kristin’s own agent that you definitely don’t want to miss.
the table by oh sierra
Sometimes, it feels like you’re on an island trying to come up with a content strategy that fits your current needs. I piece-mealed things together for awhile, but since I’ve become a member of The Table by Oh Sierra, I feel less alone.
A content marketing agency out of L.A., Oh Sierra is run by a husband and wife team, Frank and Xanthe, who are the freaking best. Their focus is on building community through your content and creating massive and sustainable growth in your business.
The monthly membership includes a private members community with special trainings and masterclasses. In addition to content strategy, they’ll touch on mindset, creativity, and also systems and processes, which is how I stay sane.
It’s nice to not feel alone. See you in there?
