CLICK 👉 FOR SWIPE COPY OPTIONS
OPTION #1
My friend, leadership authority, and founder of the Dynamic Professional Women’s Network (DPWN), Christie Ruffino, is publishing the next (12th) book in her very successful “Overcoming Mediocrity” co-author book series. I am excited to have been a featured author in one of her books and she just told me that she is once again looking for a few more dynamic women who are willing to share their inspirational stories to empower and equip others on their journey of life.
You will receive tons of exposure as well as credibility and the prestige of becoming (MY FAVE!) an Amazon Bestselling author. Plus, by joining her author team you will get the added benefit of uniting with the other amazing women she is bringing together for this book. Here are links for the books on Amazon and for their project website.
If you want to apply to be featured in her next book, let me know so I can connect you both.
My friends will get $100 off of the investment as a special referral gift from me.
OPTION #2
Most people know that having a book can help them grow their business, but many don’t know that participating in a co-authored book with other like-minded professionals can get them even more benefits at a fraction of the time and investment.
My friend Christie Ruffino has worked with women for almost ten years, helping them leverage their stories in several co-authored book brands.
Over that time, she has learned what does NOT work and what DOES work best to ensure her clients create tangible opportunities from working with her.
She has two books in the works, along with an “included” 8-week Bootcamp to walk you step-by-step through the process to leverage your story in business to boost your brand, amplify your authority, and make more money!
Here is the page she created to share the different participation options: http://www.storytoauthoritynow.com/
And here are some links that will direct you to details about our past books.
- OUR BOOKS ON AMAZON: amazon.com/author/christieruffino
- THE OVERCOMING MEDIOCRITY PROJECT: https://www.overcomingmediocrity.org
- FAQ: https://overcomingmediocrity.org/faq
If this interests you, let me know.
She typically only works with referrals, so I would gladly introduce you and expedite the process.
She also said I could extend a $100 discount to my peeps.
STORY CREATION
CREATE YOUR WORK
STEP #1 Watch the Story Training 👉
New AI training to come.
STEP #2 Book Your Story Framework Coaching Call 👉
I am here to support you every step of the way. My personal goal is to help you create the most impactful story that will elevate your business and then leverage it in a way that your list grows and your client conversions increase.
Over time, I’ve learned that those results can’t happen in a group setting. So now, every author gets two included coaching calls to work through brand clarity, story framework, and monetization strategy.
Be sure to watch the Story Framework Training BEFORE our call. (Step #2)
STEP #3 Write a Dazzling Bio 👉
How to Write a Dazzling Bio
As a speaker, author, coach, or industry expert, there will be many situations where you will be asked to provide your bio for promotional purposes.

FYI: Your bio should be 300 words or less.
STEP #4 Get a Professional Headshot 👉
Work with a local photographer to have a current headshot taken to use on the book cover and inside with your bio.
Submission details are below on this page.
STEP #5 Pre-Publishing Marketing Ideas 👉
Once you’ve joined our team, feel free to begin creating energy around your upcoming new author status.
Some pre-publishing marketing ideas are:
- Share how you just signed an author agreement with a publisher to write your first book. Include a photo of you signing your contract.
- Share highlights of your story and mention your pending book.
- Create an opt-in page for people to sign-up to get autographed copies of your book.
