Before The Bestseller

BTB127 | Book Series Episode 3: Building your marketing team

Alex Strathdee

In this episode of Before the Bestseller Podcast Series, we dive into one of the most underestimated keys to sustainable book marketing: building a team. Whether you’re juggling social media, podcast pitching, newsletter writing, or event outreach—trying to do it all yourself is a fast track to burnout. From hiring international virtual assistants to collaborating with expert marketers, you'll learn who to bring on board, how to find them, and what tasks you should never be doing alone again. We even explore how to leverage AI like ChatGPT to fill in the gaps.

If you’re overwhelmed with “all the things” and not sure where to start, this is the episode that gives you permission—and a plan—to stop doing it all yourself.
