REDISCOVER YOUR

 

Remember the joy of writing, when you could just let your imagination fly and fill pages with your big ideas? Maybe your love for writing is calling you to become an author.

 

But where do you even start?

 

Everybody wants to write a book,
but actually sitting down and getting it finished is a huge challenge and commitment. And then what? How do you get people to actually read it? How do you know you’re not wasting your time and money chasing an impossible dream?
FACT: The publishing industry is a mess,

 

and great books don’t succeed without marketing. But who has time to build a big platform or get sucked into the tarpit of social media? Self-publishing has become a billion dollar industry, but it’s a “pay-to-publish” scheme profiting off the hopes and dreams of indie authors.

 

Imagine if there was a

 

that mapped out exactly how to writing a bestselling book, while also building a platform of loyal readers – so you could launch a bestseller easily just by sending out one simple email.

 

Without begging friends and family for book reviews. Without hustling on social media, or spending years waiting for permission from agents or publishers (and collecting stacks of rejection letters.)

 

Imagine being able to just write what you love, with no stress or fear or frustration about whether your book is good enough, or whether it will earn any money – because your book already has an audience of hungry readers waiting for it.

 

Thanks for pouring your heart and soul into this course- it has become life changing for me! Your course broke me out of writer’s block and has helped me tap back into my flow. I’ve always been somewhat hesitant to really put my writing out there because of the fear of failing but being given permission to fail and now expecting to fail my way to success has taken that paralysis away.

Oh my gosh, thank you Thank You THANK YOU! This is exactly what I needed. Step-by-step of exactly what to do. Fumbling around for the past year trying to figure out how to get reviews. This is direct, to the point, understandable! I’ve made a lot of mistakes on the 3 books I currently have out, and as you can guess, they’re not selling. But the next one…now I’m armed with knowledge! I’m dedicating my next book to Derek!”

I’ve learned more from you in the past few months, since becoming a student, than I have in the last five years,. Every day I give thanks, sincerely, you have given me direction and instruction on how to get to the life I have always wanted. Words will never be able to express the gratitude I have towards you.

Sleaze-free Success

 

Book marketing doesn’t have to be awkward or uncomfortable. In fact, 95% of the “book marketing” actually takes place before you publish. It’s about finding the value in your work, and communicating the benefits in a way that makes people beg for a copy.

 

Stop wasting time & money on USELESS book promotion tactics!

 

to selling more books is…

 

NOT to pay for more visibility or publicity: first you need to figure out how to communicate value in an emotionally and culturally relevant way. You have to make your book matter, quickly. So they’ll listen to what you have to say. Otherwise – NOBODY CARES.

 

After months of testing and thousands of failed experiments, I figured out the core components of a radically new way for writing and publishing books readers love… I boiled down everything into an easy-to-follow, step-by-step system of just three simple steps. Get these right and you won’t even need to market your books.

 

Write books readers love

 

Most authors write for themselves, and then have NO IDEA who else might like their book or why they should read it.

 

The GP way: Respect your audience enough to care what they think, and know them well enough to deliberately give them an unforgettable reading experience.

 

Publish books that sell

 

Most authors lose money, throwing away cash on expensive PR that doesn’t work, and having no way to track ROI.

 

The GP way: position and package your book to attract readers on autopilot, and launch profitably from day one.

 

Launch to #1 (and stay there)

 

Most authors disappear into the Amazon abyss after they’ve exhausted all their friends and family.

 

The GP way: build a loyal platform of loyal readers, and tickle the Amazon algorithm to promote your book for you, so you STAY visible even when you stop marketing.

 

Three strikes you’re out

 

If you’re missing any one of these, your book won’t sell – you’ll be relying on luck, crossing your fingers and tossing coins into the wishing well without ever seeing results. Self publishing is a billion dollar industry, but almost none of the money is going to authors.

There’s a better way

 

The 3 reasons your book will fail (and how to fix them)

 

A year ago I bought your course, having decided to dedicate my life to becoming an author. I did it mostly for the support because it was a big step. I never regretted it. You’ve been there every step of the way to provide feedback. You and the group kept me going on days when I bashed myself in the head and said “what the#^&% am I doing?”

I stumbled across Guerrilla Publishing at the time I needed it most. With Derek’s help, my debut settled nicely into Amazon’s top 500 overall and earned five-figures. With the release of the sequel, my income for January alone was just shy of $30,000. If you’re feeling overwhelmed in the literary world and haven’t settled onto a clear path to success, Guerrilla Publishing could change your life!

Don’t let the GATEKEEPERS

 

SQUASH YOUR DREAMS

Take control of your publishing with a revolutionary new system for writing and publishing books that sell.

 

If you’ve been…

 

working too hard to finish your book

 

OR

 

have already published but can’t sell

 

it’s time for a new approach!

 

Guerrilla Publishing

 

✔ The easiest and cheapest way to publish a profitable book

 

✔ Launch books to #1 bestseller with my PROVEN plan

 

✔ An audience of loyal readers who love to share your work

 

Isn’t it time you made a commitment to your writing?

 

From no idea to published author in just 90 days, with my bestseller blueprint and exclusive step-by-step system

 

HOW IT WORKS

Guerrilla Publishing is an online course & mentorship program that will take you from zero platform to #1 bestseller in less than 90 days.

 

You’ll get everything you need to write great books and market them with integrity, PLUS expert advice to save you time and money.

 

A FOUR STEP STRATEGY TO PUBLISHING SUCCESS

First, you’ll figure out who your target audience is and what they actually want, so you can position and design your book to attract them – which will easily triple your marketing efforts. Then you’ll use my writing resources and templates to double-check the most important parts of your book, to avoid amateur mistakes and strengthen the final product.

 

★ how to outline your book, to save months of painful revision
★ finding time to write (even if you’re busy)
★ never get writer’s block or procrastination again
★ market research and competition analysis
★ choosing keywords and categories for free visibility
★ instantly hook their interest so they pay attention

 

Second, we’ll deep-dive into the principles of bestselling book design. Getting the cover right is crucial to success (even if you hire a professional designer, you may still end up with a cover that doesn’t sell unless you understand why one cover performs better than another.)

 

I’ll share templates for formatting, recommend best fonts, and also walk you through uploading your files for print and ebook distribution, and how to focus on the things that matter most.

 

★ cover design secrets that sell
★ how to format your own books for print and ebook
★ where to upload your files for maximum distribution
★ optimizing your Amazon page and metadata
★ mistakes that will get you blacklisted from bookstores
★ best fonts to use for every genre
★ writing a powerful blurb that seizes the imagination

 

Third, you’ll learn how to build an email list of fans, get a bunch of reviews, and launch your book to #1 bestseller and make it an “instant classic.” I’ll give you the exact book launch checklist I’ve used to launch hundreds of books, and share the best promotional sites and strategies to get maximum visibility.

 

★ build an engaged email list with book giveaways
★ get book reviews without begging or buying
★ build trust and credibility with your autoresponder
★ prelaunch with promo graphics (templates included!)
★ how to get media attention (without useless press releases)
★ finding influencers who will share your launch

 

Fourth, you’ll learn how to maintain long-term visibility by growing and automating your author platform. Hitting #1 for a day feels great in the short-term, but if you want to make a living as a writer you need your books to keep selling for months, if not years, after launch.

 

We’ll also improve your branding and story, and get your author platform and sales growing on autopilot – so you can stop marketing and have the freedom and energy and to write books you love.

 

★ how to set up your author website (and what to blog about)
★ Facebook, Twitter and social media hacks
★ AMS and Facebook advertising
★ joint author promos and content marketing
★ how to hit the USA Today or NYT bestseller lists

 

To launch bestsellers, you need three things:

 

1. A book readers love (and actually find)

 

2. Amazing book design and formatting

 

3. A platform of supportive readers

 

Screw up any one of them, and your book won’t sell no matter how much visibility you get.

 

The problem is, for most people, getting these things right is really difficult. HOW do you get more book reviews? What makes a bestselling cover? What kind of blurb will convert readers?

 

Bestseller Blueprint

 

My innovative process for creating books that sell is the ONLY foolproof way to make a living as a writer, and if you do it right, you won’t even need book marketing.

 

I spent months recording detailed videos breaking down my entire process, and answering every publishing question I could think of. I included step-by-step strategies showing you exactly what to do, so you never have to worry about “what’s next.”

 

Banish the Overwhelm

 

Stop spinning your wheels. This self-publishing and book marketing masterclass has everything you need to finish and launch your bestseller and fund your next big idea.

 

We’ve helped hundreds of authors achieve LIFE-CHANGING results… now it’s your turn.

 

I have never followed anyone that comes across as genuine as you are. I don’t trust people easily as I am naturally skeptical, but you are different. You have proven yourself again and again. I used to follow some other well-known self-publishing gurus until I eventually learned that they didn’t care if I succeeded or not. Any time I talk with anyone about writing, publishing, or creating, I mention you and your approach. You are THAT good.

Tons of value in this course! Just the author platform audit is worth a lot, since it’s coming from an author with a PhD in Literature, and the experience and sales proof to back up what he teaches. One of the BEST WRITING COURSES available.

The indie publishing information business can sleazy. I stumbled on Derek later than sooner, but live and learn. I am VERY IMPRESSED by the breadth of his knowledge and his willingness to share. He’s the real deal. Not some internet marketing dude. He’s proven his worth and value time after time, and I am fine spending money on any course he puts out. If he’s selling something, I’m buying it.

Derek Murphy offers a refreshing, honest perspective in the indie author business. I consume everything he puts out as fast as it becomes available. It’s comprehensive, timely, and real. I do a lot of coordinating with groups of authors, both online in the Romance author community and in my local area. People always ask me “WHERE DO I BEGIN?” and among the short list of things that make up my response to that question, Derek Murphy is one of them.

This course has it all. It covers every aspect of self-publishing, from your initial book idea to book launch and marketing. I followed Derek’s advice, redesigned an underperforming title and saw a MARKED INCREASE in downloads. I’m already seeing more traffic coming my way. I would definitely recommend this course over many others costing more than twice as much.

Both series popped within an hour of going live on Amazon and sold double what they had previously this month. Yesterday was the best sales day of the month so far in all my books. And that was just the first day. I did ZERO PROMOTIONS for any of this. Today is shaping up to be even better. You are a breath of fresh air in this business, and I’ll keep up with the course and implement some of it. It has already given me value back.

As a new indie author with one unsuccessful book launch, I needed a way forward. Cue Derek Murphy, the Creativ-Indie. I could have spent hours poring the internet and refining my methods, but why would I when it is all in one place? And that’s what the Guerrilla Publishing course is – EVERYTHING NEEDED to produce and release a book, all in one place. I’m hugely excited about moving forward and putting all this into action.

When it comes to self publishing, there are a vast number of resources out there. However, for those who have struggled for years without finding success, you need a practical guide. Derek Murphy’s course will teach you how to write the books and then, market them in the right places. Without that KEY STRATEGY, the books fail despite the amount you spend marketing it. He should be charging more, but he seems to be the kind of guy that wants to help and goes all out.

Win the publishing war

 

Get the confidence you need to launch your book successfully, and avoid amateur mistakes that can kill sales.

 

I encourage & empower authors to take control of their own publishing, bypass the gatekeepers, and actually earn a living with their writing. What’s success worth to you?

 

These strategies will do more than just give you “bestseller status.” You’ll be learning something much more valuable, something totally new and different:
A publishing revolution

 

and step-by-step process based on providing value and writing books that sell; plus the tools, resources and support you need to start earning real income from your books.

Guerrilla Publishing isn’t about writing crappy books or gaming the system.

 

It’s about long-term, strategic action, and being nimble enough to out-maneuver large publishing houses. It’s about satisfying your readers, so you can build up a massive fanbase that’s hungry for your next release.

 

Although I’m confident this course has everything you need, the truth is it’s still not enough.

 

Knowledge is useless unless you take action.

 

You might be thinking, I don’t have time for more courses. That’s why I give personal feedback and attention to every single student in my course, along with a private mastermind for support and community, and an arsenal of publishing tools, checklists, templates and resources that will save you time and money.

 

MOTIVATION & ACCOUNTABILITY

 

We’ve built systems to make sure you get the support and encouragement you need.
No author left behind

 

If you’ve been writing for awhile, you might know that staying motivated and positive can be challenging, and there’s so much to learn about, getting a handle on your book marketing may feel overwhelming and exhausting.

 

Maybe you’ve even bought courses before, but couldn’t figure it all out and didn’t want to say anything. I don’t want this to be a course you buy and don’t use. That’s why I’ve built Guerrilla Publishing with three main components

 

Join today and you’ll get…

 

All Four Modules

 

Guerrilla Publishing includes a 12-week plan to write, publish and launch a bestselling book, with everything you need to hit #1 and create a steady stream of passive income.

 

Workbook & Bootcamp

 

A guided email series that will help you achieve the 24 simple, specific tasks in the companion workbook. You’ll be encouraged to share your results, and also earn rewards for taking action, so you stay motivated.

 

Coaching & Community

 

Being around other successful authors who care about you and your dream can have a huge impact on productivity and motivation. So I’ve set up a private Facebook community with weekly check-ins so you can’t fail.

 

Publishing changes quickly, and it’s a struggle to stay caught up – so, when you sign up today you’ll get 3 months of intensive coaching and feedback, plus a full year’s access to the insider circle.

 

You’ll also get the newest, cutting-edge book marketing hacks I discover BEFORE anybody else. If you’re the first in your genre or topic to use these, you’ll have a massive advantage.

 

With dozens of lessons, exclusive supplemental content, case studies and examples, this course is far more than just a video series. You’ll be encouraged to connect with other authors, participate in daily challenges and check in with a weekly progress report.

 

We’ll try to give you quick wins, so you can see results right away – and remember, I’ll be there to help you, each step of the way, and the private group will be available for advice, support and encouragement, so you never feel alone, clueless or frustrated.

 

I’ve seen other coaches or masterminds charge thousands of dollars just for the community or coaching aspects, without any video tutorials – because they know support and long-term motivation is as important as education.

If you join today I’ll also give you an in-depth, editorial critique of your first 3 pages, whenever you’re ready for feedback.

 

VALUED AT $297

 

Why am I giving you all this? Because I know you’re going to need it.

You get lifetime access to all these resources, so they’ll be there exactly when you need them most.

 

Why buy another course that just does ONE of these, when you can join Guerrilla Publishing and get everything you need?

 

It doesn’t matter how good your book is if you can’t get anyone to read it. That means getting clear about the audience, and positioning the most appealing benefits in a way that resonates with your readers.

I am publishing my first book!

 

I have 1000+ newsletter subscribers, 25 ARC readers with reviews already coming in, and I am still two months away from launch! Derek helped turn my covers into reader catnip, get my blurbs to hook, and connect with fans through my newsletter.

 

“As a newbie writer with several halfway done manuscripts but no experience publishing, I was overwhelmed with everything I had to learn to structure, publish, and market my books on a shoestring budget. I’ve read countless how-to articles but I had information overload and didn’t know where to start and in what order. Then I found this course and let out a breath of relief! Guerrilla Publishing was what I needed: a course that guides me step-by-step through the process, so that I don’t have to figure out what to do next. Everything is spelled out for me by someone who has successfully done it before. The lifetime access to all the instructional videos is great because I can go at my own pace, there’s no deadline, and the information is available to me not just for a year but for forever. I tagged Derek with a question once and his answer saved me over $400.

“If you are an indie author or otherwise with limited resources, little to no knowledge of the publishing industry, or are wondering how to format and market your work, you should seriously consider taking Derek Murphy’s Guerrilla Publishing online course. I learned a ton from Derek’s course about sales, retention, reviews, publishing, marketing, formatting, and assorted software that make my life easier while trying to do all of the above. I not only found his information vital while formatting the interior of my upcoming romance novel, the loads of helpful material about book cover design (this was one of my favorite sections) and marketing without being spammy was also extremely useful. In addition, he shares his detailed knowledge on launching a new book, which I intend to review again when I’m finally ready to launch. All the extras found in the course make purchasing the full package worthwhile. The educational value is definitely worth the cost.”

Everything an author needs to know!

 

Whether you’re writing fiction, nonfiction, beginner or advanced, this is definitely the right course.

 

“I’ve worked with thousands of authors to help them nail their story and market their books, and I always refer them to Derek Murphy’s work. Derek has the most creative ideas for marketing books. He draws from his previous background as a cover designer, blogger, and internet marketer to bring fresh techniques and tactics to the book industry. More importantly, he tests everything he teaches with his books and gets serious results! What I love about Derek is that he believes first and foremost in giving value to the world. He has given so much of his resources and time to the communities he builds, and he really cares about helping each person make progress. Derek is the type of person who way overdelivers on everything he does. He works hard to help people find success and will do the same for you.”

“Having published my first book traditionally, I wanted to try my hand at self-publishing for my second book but I quickly discovered there is so much more to it than just listing a book on Amazon. It’s overwhelming! If that’s how you feel, too, then Guerrilla Publishing is exactly what you need. Derek’s down-to-earth style makes complicated topics easy to understand. The entire process of self-publishing is broken down into small, achievable steps. You’ll receive every bit of your money’s worth in this course and much more. The Facebook community is icing on the cake. I can ask any question and get an answer. No more walking in the dark for me! Thanks, Derek, for a truly awesome course. I am so happy that I decided to join. I don’t know where I would be without it.

Derek Murphy is simply the best in the cover design world. I’m a co-founder of a publishing company and recently hired a new cover designer. The first “training” I did was take him directly to Derek’s portfolio.

Derek, thank you again for spending some time on the Will It Fly stuff – it’s been a crazy journey and we’re almost ready to launch! I can’t express how much your designs helped in shaping the conversation around what the book cover eventually turned into. Thank you, seriously, for your help.

One of the most critical things for the success of a book is a cover design that catches the eye and makes the reader want to try it. Derek designed several professional covers for my own books and I can recommend his design skills highly.

I have learned a massive amount since finding you. You are not selfish, and I like your attitude. I am drinking up everything I can that you send out. Your passion and love for writing is the driver. And, man, you are an inspiration. Your energy is contagious! Thank you so, So, SO much.

About Derek Murphy

 

For the past several years, my wife and I have been able to travel full-time, living in beautiful locations and speaking at writing conferences around the world. It’s amazing to wake up full of purpose and enthusiasm and work on my creative projects.

 

I have a PhD in Literature and have been featured in CNN for running writing retreats in castles. More importantly, I’m a full time writer (both fiction and non-fiction), which means I’m launching books of my own and will always stay three steps ahead of the market to make sure my books continue to sell.

 

The truth is I’m still pretty awkward about selling things, but I’m great at what I do, and people are usually surprised by my level of attention. If you’re still uncertain, go back and read all the reviews and testimonials on this page.

Got Questions?

 

Will this really help me sell more books?
YES. Why? There are three secrets to selling books. Most other courses focus on basic book marketing advice that EVERYBODY else is already doing, and they avoid the uncomfortable fact that 90% of authors are trying to sell books that nobody wants. This is the ONLY course that focuses on writing books for a specific audience, so you know exactly how to design, position and package your book to attract your ideal readers. Plus you’ll find dozens of innovative strategies nobody else is even talking about yet.
Does it really work?
Absolutely. These are the strategies I used to…
– Build a list of 35K fans
– Sell 20,000 book and get 100K downloads
– Get nearly 1000 book reviews
– Become a full-time writer in less than two years

 

But it isn’t a magic bullet. If you’ve written a book for a very small audience, and they don’t like it, this course won’t fix the core problem – but it can help make sure your NEXT book is much more successful.
Will it work for fiction/nonfiction/poetry/kid’s books?
I’ve designed this course with both fiction and non-fiction authors in mind. I’ve successfully published both, and have helped design launch books in ALL genres. No matter what kind of books you write, this course will you connect with your audience, get more visibility and build a platform for your writing.
When does the course start and finish?
It starts as soon as you join; we have a structured learning experience set up but you’ll have lifetime access to the course materials as well, plus up to ONE YEAR of support and feedback (we understand that writing and publishing is a long-term effort).
Why should I trust you?
I’ve been putting out free templates, tutorials and videos to help writers self-publish for the past decade. My resources get thousands of downloads a month and I’m up to nearly a million views on YouTube. But forget all that. More importantly, people like and trust me, because I’m a boy scout at heart and my purpose is to serve. I also care too much about what people think of me, so I give WAY more than I charge for and hate letting people down. Honestly I hate selling things on the internet, but I want more authors to get high quality information so they can avoid the scams.
What if I am unhappy with the course?
There’s a ton of material in my courses, but if you don’t find something useful that improves your book sales, or are unsatisfied with your purchase for any reason, just let me know and I’ll refund you. I’ll even make you a bet: using the tips in this course will help you double your book sales in less than a year. If they don’t, ask me for your money back.
How long do I have access to the course?
After enrolling, you have unlimited LIFETIME access to the courses and templates for as long as you like – across any and all devices you own. I’ll also keep adding new courses and materials into the membership area, so you’ll get full access even if you bought in at a lower price.
What if I fall behind?
Twice a year we open enrollment and go through the course together, but you’ll have lifetime access to the material. I understand that publishing a book is a long term effort; you’ll have one year of access to the community and can get my personal help and feedback whenever you need it. You’ll be able to go at your own pace, and all the resources will be ready and waiting for you.
What if I don’t have a book yet?
Perfect! If you’re just thinking about writing a book, I can help you find the right idea for YOUR goals, and develop it into a working outline. I can’t write the book for you, but I can make it much easier with structure and guidance.
Can’t you do all this for me?
Unfortunately no – for long term success, YOU must engage with your own audience and learn how to master your own publishing. However I will recommend things you can (and should) outsource.
How’s it work?
Lessons will be delivered to your inbox over the course of 12 weeks, and we’ll check in and make sure you’re getting value. Within 90 days, you should be able to have your book on Amazon and hit #1 in your category.
