Episode 369: The Value of an Email List to a Cookbook Author

Welcome to another episode of the Cookbook Love Podcast. Today I'm excited to talk to you about one key tool in the life of most cookbook authors, and that's an email list. Part of the reason I want to talk about this is that there is a misconception that we have to chase publishers and agents. But what I've found to be true in my own life, in the lives of my students, and in the lives of the authors I've talked to on the show is that publishers and agents are looking for a food, culinary, or nutrition expert like you. And how will they find you? That's exactly what we're going to talk about. What makes for a strong author platform is the heart of the platform, your email list. I'll break down why your list is your most valuable publishing asset, how to simplify your platform so it feels doable, and how to reignite your list to connect with your audience starting today.
