Imagine opening your inbox to find new clients begging to work with you, opportunities to speak around the world, and members of media requesting interviews. That’s exactly what started happening when Tara Gentile began writing and publishing her ideas in small self-published books. She went from hustling for work to having clients knocking down her door. She went from a small audience of fans to stepping on global stages. Writing and publishing a book—even a small one—can have that effect. If you’ve been struggling to find the clients, credibility, and cash you really want from your business, writing and publishing a book can turn it all around. It might sound daunting but after self-publishing 4 books, Tara has a simple process for turning your ideas into a book available for sale on Amazon or on your own website. You can become a published author and reap the benefits for your business in much less time than you think. In this class, Tara's broken her process down into 5 easy steps:

  1. Choose your idea and create an outline
  2. Use what you’ve got to write your book fast
  3. Edit and format your book so you can distribute it on a number of platforms
  4. Publish your book on your own website or Amazon
  5. Market your book and get people reading it
Stop dreaming of becoming a published author someday and start making it happen. As a bonus with purchase, you'll get The Digital Product Starter Kit that'll help you write, publish, market, and sell your eBook with maximum results. You'll get a free 30-day trial of ConvertKit's suite of email marketing tools, a free 90-day trial of the Selz.com Pro Plan, 25% off upgrades on Pressbooks, one 15% off code for any purchase at Creative Market, and one-month free access to Tara Gentile's Quiet Power Strategy Group.

    Tara is simply amazing!! I'm watching one more class of hers and I'm astonished by the amount of information she provides, her vivid personality that keeps you watching, she's actually an excellent public speaker and how she makes it all seem so simple!!! Congratulations!!

    Wow! I started watching this course on a whim after browsing the marketing section. I'm running my first online program in 2020 and have been searching for a way to increase my authority in the online space. Like Tara, writing a book has been a dream of mine since I was a kid posting stories on my free AOL blog (haha so long ago!). So I thought, why not? I have a tendency to watch everything as fast as possible without doing the work, but Tara has laid everything out so simply. I made it a point to complete each piece of homework before moving on to the next video. It actually motivates me to get things done because I'm really looking forward to finishing this course! I've already started diving into the 1st draft. Plus, I've outlined an entire series of books to follow. My goal is to finish the book by February 2nd... my birthday ;) Thank you Tara, for making it so easy!

  • Roshni D. Aug 23, 2019

    LOVED this class! Thank you Tara! Loved Tara's enthusiasm the whole way through. The guest experts were also awesome and very knowledgeable. Tara, I will for sure let you know once I've published my book!!!

  • Ana -. Oct 24, 2018

    Great course! Professionally built and Tara makes the process sound so easy. Love how actionable the lessons are and even if I've published ebooks in the past, I've still learned so much that I can apply to further market my ebook.

  • Sharon O. Aug 7, 2017

    Practical, tactical, and implementable... Tara does a fantastic job of animated teaching, on-the-ground information, bringing in experts for outside perspective, and tangible homework/workshop time for informative feedback. This is awesome!! Thank you, Tara! I plan to utilize the knowledge right away and get an ebook written right away!

  • Linda D. Feb 5, 2017

    Great course! I've been thinking about writing an eBook but, like many others, thought it was too difficult and time-consuming. Tara's simple step-by-step process with expert interviews and student examples showed me that I can definitely do this. Now I can't wait to get going!

  • Ronnie W. Aug 11, 2016

    Fantastic class--fast, great nuggets of info and lots and lots of "you can do this, kid" encouragement. Take this class if you have an idea swimming around that needs to be a book! Thank you, Tara!

  • Selma M. Jul 20, 2016

    I picked this class with a different purpose, even because Im from Brasil, with different paths to track, an different rules and laws, but even so, I absolutely loved it! Tara is so thrilled, and despite knowing that part it will not work the same way for me, a guarantee that's worth it each penny. Tips are really valuable, so thank you , Tara!

  • Sera P. Jul 5, 2016

    I loved this class and am glad I bought it. I am already halfway my e-book. I have never written a book. I don't have a blog and I don't have a podcast. But I have the information which is experience. I do not even work but volunteer and do courses. So I can not compare myself to the ladies she was interviewing. They sounded experienced in what they were doing. May be that is why I was unable to finish my book in a week but it is doable! There is always a beginning. Unfortunately, I did not download the bonus material on top in class materials when I purchased the class. Is it possible to send it to me. samire.m30@gmail.com

  • Melissa D. Jun 29, 2016

    I was hesitant to spend money on this class--what could it teach me that I didn't already get from all the (many) books and classes I've read and taken before? Turns out quite a lot! Not only did I discover some new tools I didn't know about, but Tara helped me see that the eBook I already wrote IS a book — I'm ALREADY an author, though I'd been discounting that in my head! — and she helped me see that writing my next book is not the mountain I'd been making it out to be. (Why do we do that to ourselves??) "It really is that easy" was a recurring theme. And Tara's five steps, and the BRILLIANT map included with purchase, make it all feel so much more doable than I'd been setting it up to be (and again, I've already written a book!) Plus the guest experts brought so many more layers to the experience. Thank you, Tara! I am fired up and rarin' to go! This was a great class, well worth the cost. Highly recommended to anyone who aspires to become an author.

    I really liked the way this course was structured over a five day period. And that each day we got a chance to meet an expert in the field. Tara was great, a cheerleader through the whole process and the ecxperts were inspiring enough that I've checked out each of them further. Thank you. It will still be a while before my book comes out but this was very helpful.

  • C. Jun 28, 2016

    Tara Gentile is a gentle speaker and trainer. Tara makes it easy to understand the points that she is trying to get across. I find that Tara is very organized and easy to follow. No matter where you are at in your skill level of publishing an ebook, you can always learn more from people like Tara who is well-versed in her knowledge of the subject. I found her class interesting and note-worthy and I already have published 6 ebooks!

  • Tanya L. Jun 28, 2016

    Tara has inspired me to finally take the step into self-publishing. This has been something I have wanted to do for sometime, but didn't know how to get started. The content of this course lays out the steps in an easy to follow manner.

  • Aerie N. Jun 27, 2016

    Good information. Thanks Tara.

  • Marylinda R. Jun 27, 2016

    Tara's focus on actionable steps and useful tools takes e-publishing from aspirational to achieveable. Well done!

  • Alison H. Jun 27, 2016

    Loved this class! Tara shared all of her best tips and tools for publishing an e-book! It was also helpful to hear from her experts and students. Worth your time and effort to take this class if you plan on self-publishing a book! Thank you, Tara! (p.s. I could not watch the last class as Creative Live switched over to another broadcast - this was very disappointing as I was hoping to catch the full week of learning from Tara!)

  • S. Jun 27, 2016

    Great Course! Tara is a great example of inspiration , she actually gives you all the necessary tools for each part of the process of writing and publishing a book . I also loved that she gives you the confidence of being able to contact her through their social networks , either for help or just to show her your book. I loved the course and of course I would take another one with her.

  • Q. Jun 27, 2016

    Very interesting, full of useful informations and calls to action. She doesn't just explain very well what you need to do, but also inspire you with her enthusiasm! I was not sure whether to write my own book, but now I know I'll do it because I know why it's so useful and how it's simple!

  • Jennifer K. Jun 27, 2016

    Tara's class was fantastic. She presented information that I have been trying to figure out for the last year quickly, in an easy to understand manner and having examples really brought it all home.

  • U. Jun 26, 2016

    This great class really opened me up to the idea of writing a book to compliment and promote my art business. Tara and her guests are so knowledgeable and they all made me feel more confident about starting this process with a clear outline and direction. This feels doable! Thanks so much for another awesome class CreativeLive.

  • Esther D. Jun 26, 2016

    It took me about 5 years to finally start writing my book. Never got past the initial deep thinking, planning, more thinking and giving up (thank you perfectionism) Tara is pretty amazing, she just presents the entire writing, processing, marketing process as 'stupid easy' (her words). I'm already half way my book. Really, who would have guessed? I bought the class for extra support and because I want to listen to Tara Gentille telling me it's easy (in case perfectionism starts kicking me again) and I'm genuinely looking forward to upload my ' How to Thrive' book for Highly Sensitive Fiercely Bright Renaissance Souls to Amazon. Goodbye procrastination. Thank you Tara, studio audience and guests!

  • Peter W. Jun 26, 2016

    Such a brilliant course - perfect for my needs. Provides insight, inspiration and great wisdom. A great flow of topics to help us hit the road running. Is it okay to say the voice thing was difficult for me? 'Referral' ouch. But very worth sticking with, so packed with top-notch info and tips. Thanks to all the amazing guests! Thanks Tara, you're dynamite!!

  • Elen U. Jun 26, 2016

    Great!!! Thank you so much, Tara! I love how simple you make it looks like. I think that besides bringing the reality check about how blogging n the whole digital content are tied together you also did a kinda coaching! Lifting the spirit! Great pace to follow! Best wishes to you too. 💐

  • Henriette H. Jun 25, 2016

    Great Course. I got lots of valuable information.

  • S. Jun 25, 2016

    Tara is masterful at breaking it down for anyone to accomplish a daunting project like writing & publishing your own eBook. PLUS she reinforces the learning with hot seat real examples of other students & amazing inspiring experts who selflessly give away actionable gems you can do immediately. Best $79 I ever spent!
