Get Started with Social Media

A bit scared to step into the world of social media as an author? Don't worry. We've got you.

Social media

Unfortunately, authors are expected to do quite a lot of marketing to help sell their books nowadays. Social media is a key part of book marketing. It’s also one of the few marketing activities that we can do for free. If you’re not already on social media, the idea of starting an Instagram or Tiktok account to share information about your books can be overwhelming. 

What do you talk about? How do you know what to post? When?

In this mini-course we go through the different social media platforms and help you come up with a four week plan of what to post, when. Everything is easier when you have a plan.


  • choose which social media platform best suits you
  • Work out boundaries in what you do and do not want to share
  • Identify the main types of content you’re going to post
  • Make a plan for a month’s worth of posts
  • Learn how to make images showcasing your book covers


This is a self-paced course. The videos are short (usually around 10 minutes long), so you can do one a week, complete the tasks and complete the course within a month.

The mini course contains teaching videos, downloadable PDF notes and templates.


Remember that all the mini-courses are and more are available for members of Author Breakthrough Club - so if you’re buying more than 4 courses, it’s better value to get a year of Author Breakthrough Club instead.

There is a 14 day refund period for this course, so long as you haven’t accessed more than one video of the content.
