Episode Highlights:

What Do Publishers Look For?

Publishers want more than just good writers; they’re looking for partners in publication. Here’s what you need to stand out:

• Quality and Consistency: Regularly produce high-quality content that resonates with readers.

• Niche Expertise: Establish yourself as a thought leader in your area, whether it’s Biblical teaching, Christian living, or another niche.

• Professionalism: Present yourself professionally in everything from your manuscript to your social media profiles.

• Marketability: Your platform should demonstrate your influence and reach, showing publishers you have a ready audience.

Building a Strong Platform

Creating a platform that speaks to publishers involves key components:

• Engaged Social Media Following: Focus on interactions that go beyond follower counts. Engage meaningfully to build a community around your content.

• Robust Email List: Nurture your subscribers with valuable insights and stories. A loyal email list is a powerful tool when launching new projects.

• Consistent Content Output: Whether it’s blog posts, podcasts, or articles, keep a steady flow of high-quality content.

• Relationships in the Christian Community: Forge connections within the Christian publishing and speaking circuits to boost your visibility and credibility.

1. Create Resonant Content: Share content that speaks directly to your audience’s interests and challenges.
