    HUB 506: AUTHOR PANEL - Lisa MacDonald and Nikki Green
    May 26 2026
    You’ve been thinking about writing a book. Maybe you even have a working title or a rough outline. But before you invest months of your time and energy, there’s an important question to ask. Is the book you’re considering actually worth writing? For entrepreneurs, a book should be more than a passion project. It should support your business goals, connect you with the right audience, and open doors to opportunities like speaking, consulting, or new clients. But too many authors start writing before they’ve thought strategically about what the book is meant to do. That’s why I created the Author ROI Lab. It’s a small group program designed to help entrepreneurs step back and evaluate the real potential of the book they’re considering. Together, we look at your audience, your business model, and the outcomes you want to create so you can decide whether the book is worth writing and how to position it for meaningful results. If you’re thinking about writing a book and want to make sure it’s a smart investment of your time, learn more about the Author ROI Lab at www.robbiesamuels.com/lab. Now, let’s meet this week’s author panel: Lisa MacDonald wrote “The Most Common Entrepreneurial Mistakes and How to Avoid Them,” a clear, experience-driven playbook that helps entrepreneurs spot costly pitfalls early, strengthen decision-making, and build a more stable path to growth. Nikki Green wrote “Chameleon Mindset: Creative Ways To Embrace Change And Build Mental Resilience To Transform Your Career & Life,” a practical guide that helps professionals navigate change with more confidence, build mental resilience, and make intentional career and life pivots. Please join me in welcoming Lisa and Nikki. In this episode, we discuss the following: 🟠 Reviews Over Ratings: Written reviews carry more trust and more marketing value than star ratings alone. 🟠 The First 50 Reviews Sprint: Getting to 50 reviews is the major push, then momentum builds in stages. 🟠 Make Reviews a Recurring Effort: Review recency and verified purchase reviews help long-term visibility on Amazon. 🟠 Bulk Sales Through Speaking: Events, workshops, and tables in the back can move books faster than passive promotion. 🟠 Author Confidence Through Action: A personal transformation story shows what changes when you keep publishing despite many challenges.

    HUB 505: AUTHOR INTERVIEW - Deborah Reuben
    May 19 2026
    What does it take to lead with clarity when everything around you feels complex and constantly changing? Today’s guest helps senior leaders step out of reactive mode and into a more intentional, forward-looking approach to decision-making. Her work is focused on helping organizations navigate uncertainty, gain clarity, and design what comes next with purpose. As an innovation strategist and the CEO and Founder of TomorrowZone®, she partners with leaders ready to move beyond short-term reactions and to shape the future of their organizations in a more thoughtful, strategic way. She is the author of “Enter the TomorrowZone,” where she introduces a powerful framework for navigating complexity and creating space for better thinking, better decisions, and more aligned action. I had the opportunity to support her as a launch strategist, and I’ve seen firsthand the care and intention she brings not only to her work with leaders but also to how she shares her ideas in her book. If you are leading through change or want to feel more grounded and proactive in your approach to the future, this is a conversation you will not want to miss. Please join me in welcoming Deborah Reuben. In this episode, we discuss the following: 🟠 Lead The Mindset Shift: Technology works better when leaders change behaviors and expectations first. 🟠 Create Conditions For Success: Teams adopt tools faster when clarity, trust, and support are built in. 🟠 Make It Practical For Leaders: The book focuses on what leaders can do next, not abstract theory. 🟠 Compare Two Very Different Books: Her first book served a niche, credential-driven purpose, so the launch approach was minimal. 🟠 Choose A Launch With Intention: For “Enter the TomorrowZone,” the outreach and visibility plan was designed to create real momentum. 🟠 Keep The Next Format In Motion: She shares what is coming next, including audiobook plans and the work behind them.

    HUB 504: AUTHOR PANEL - Rachel Radway and Sophie Lechner
    May 11 2026
    You’ve written your book, finished the edits, and published. But now what? Too many authors assume the hard part is over once the book is available. Without a clear launch strategy, they end up with a product but no plan. No reviews, no visibility, no path for turning readers into clients or opportunities. The result? A book that quietly disappears instead of building momentum. That’s why I help authors build intentional launch strategies that lead to 50+ Amazon reviews and create a pipeline between their book and their business. With a well-organized launch team, personalized outreach, and events that spark conversations, your book can do more than sell; it can open doors. If you're ready to stop guessing and start launching with clarity, let’s talk. Schedule a complimentary 30-minute book launch brainstorming session at www.BookLaunchBrainstorm.com. And now, let me introduce today’s panel… Rachel Radway wrote “Perceptive: Insights for leaders who feel more, process deeply, and think differently,” a thoughtful and empowering guide for leaders who identify as highly sensitive, intuitive, or neurodivergent. Through personal stories, practical insights, and compassionate guidance, she helps readers embrace their perceptiveness as a strength and lead with clarity, empathy, and authenticity. Sophie Lechner wrote “Unlock Your Impact: The Roadmap to Magnetic Client Attraction for Entrepreneurs Who Hate Marketing,” a refreshing guide for mission-driven entrepreneurs who want to attract clients naturally—by leading with purpose instead of self-promotion—and transform marketing from a dreaded task into a joyful extension of their impact. Please join me in welcoming Rachel and Sophie. In this episode, we discuss the following: 🟠 Lead With Strengths: Highly perceptive leaders can turn sensitivity into clarity and empathy. 🟠 Make Marketing Feel Human: Client attraction works better when it aligns with purpose, not self-promotion. 🟠 Build A Launch Team That Follows Through: The right supporters tend to complete the review process. 🟠 Ask For Honest Reviews: Not asking for five stars can still lead to strong social proof. 🟠 Use The Kindle Flash Sale As A Relaunch: A short promo window makes it easier to talk about the book again.
