This isn’t theory. It’s structured action—designed to help you land your first (or next) book coaching client. You’ll be on a live open zoom call with me and other participants for all three days as we work through the steps. (And if you have to miss all or part of a live call, you can still listen to the recording, feel the energy and momentum of the group, and take action.)

You want a taste of how I teach and coach before you commit to our year-long book coach certification program
Why Is This Only $199?i
I’m running this special offer because the number one reason people don’t sign up for Author Accelerator’s year-long Book Coach Certification Program is not the money it costs. It’s not the time that it takes. It’s not the worry that they won’t actually be able to help writers. It’s the fear people have that they don’t have what it takes to be a successful entrepreneur.
The whole idea of making a package, pricing it, writing about it, asking people (who you KNOW!) to buy it freaks people out.
I know that I can walk people all the way through that process in a very short period of time and prove to them that they can do it. I’ve recently done it two times :
A new book coach who had only ever sold her own short fiction ran a $497 4-week coaching package that 7 people bought (which is $3,479.) This all happened in the first month of this student joining out program
An English teacher who had never sold anything ran a $500 week-long intensive program that 3 people bought ($1,500), This happened in the first few weeks of this student joining the program.
These successes convinced me that it’s entirely possible to learn the fundamentals of running a book coaching business in a short period of time.
I am convinced that if you experience this step-by-step coaching, you will see the value in our whole certification program and enroll in our cohort starting October 3.
VIP UPGRADE
$299
During the workshop, I will be doing hot seat coaching on the coaching calls (calling on people and responding in real time to questions) but if you want her to get written and video feedback on your package, pricing, and messaging, you’ll need to sign up for the VIP Upgrade.
For an extra $100, you’ll get feedback on Day #2 before you hit SEND on Day #3. There are 8 spots available at the $299 price.
What Comes After the Challenge?
On October 3, we’re starting our next cohort for The Author Accelerator Book Coach Certification Program.
I’ll be doing a live webinar on how to make money as a book coach on September 23rd at 5:00 PM PST. During that training is when the general public is invited to learn about our program and get access to our special Early Action offers (including $ off our tuition).
If you sign up for the challenge, you will have access to the Early Action offers right away, as well as the links to sign up for 1:1 sales calls with me.'

Hi I’m Jennie Nash
I’m the founder and CEO of Author Accelerator.
We’re on a mission to lead the emerging book coaching industry.
We’ve certified more than 320 book coaches who are working with all kinds of writers all over the world, helping them write better books and figure out how to get those books into readers’ hands.
I’m a huge evangelist for book coaching because I have seen firsthand what an enormous impact it makes on the writer and their work. As one of my recent clients said to me, “I feel grateful for this whole process with you. I (finally!) love what I wrote. How does anyone do this without a book coach?!”
Being a book coach also has an enormous impact on the coach. We make all the decisions about our business, call all the shots, and utilize all our talents — for words and ideas, for stories, for people, and for making meaning.
I’m excited to introduce you to what your book coaching business might look like.
