Authors with clear, consistent, and recognizable voices are 3X more likely to gain readers’ trust, as well as their loyalty.
For indie authors, especially, establishing our brand voice isn’t an optional “thing” to tick off a list! It’s what sets you apart in a sea of those who are publishing every single day. When your tone, personality, and messaging are consistent and recognizable, readers start to remember you, trust you, and come back for more. Why? Because they’re not just connecting with your books, they’re connecting with you.
That’s why in this week’s episode, I’m going to wrap up my three-part series on author brand building with what is arguably the most essential and critical element of all: your brand voice. Your “voice” isn’t about whether your speech is quiet or loud or gravely or sexy. It’s the super unique way you sound in your content, how you connect, and how readers come to know it’s you without even seeing your name.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode
· What the true meaning of “brand voice” is!
· Why your brand voice can make (or break) your career!
· How to tap into your own unique brand voice and draw it out!
· How to share your unique brand voice consistently in everything you do!
· How failing to establish your unique brand voice makes you a minnow in an ocean!
· How you can, instead, become a shark in a very small pond!
KEY TAKEAWAY
Your brand voice already exists. It’s what makes you stand out uniquely to those who know and love you and can tell you apart in crowd based on any number of things that are genuinely YOU. Maybe you’re a full-fledged, unapologetic girly girl (like me). Maybe you have a certain catch phrase people are used to hearing. Maybe you are obsessed with purple. Whatever it is, if you want to find, attract, and build long-lasting (profitable) relationships with readers looking specifically for books like yours, building your unique brand, including your distinguishable voice, is paramount.
