Jen T. Grace uses this mini-episode to announce the availability of her new book "Publish your Purpose," a step-by-step guide designed to help entrepreneurs and thought leaders write, publish, and scale their ideas into print. The book is available across multiple formats - ebook, paperback, audiobook, and signed hardcover versions - with a limited-time Amazon ebook promotion at $2.99 on launch day (October 11, 2023), rising to $9.99 thereafter. Grace also promotes her Getting Started for Authors program, a six-month cohort starting October 24th that runs through April 30th, designed for aspiring authors writing memoir, business, leadership, self-help, or DEI-focused books. The program meets Tuesdays and Fridays to cover publishing strategy, distribution, book positioning, and manuscript development, with Grace personally facilitating this session after a two-year absence. She emphasizes the program's intimate setting (six people total, one seat remaining) and notes it offers direct access to her mentorship at a lower cost than one-on-one coaching.

What our scoring noted

Our reviewer’s read on each dimension, with quotes from the episode.

Insight Density

1 / 20

This episode contains zero educational content for a B2B operator. It is entirely a promotional announcement with no novel claims, frameworks, or actionable insights whatsoever.

I am doing this really quick mini episode on this podcast that you haven't heard from me in, in a while
today specifically I have a deal on Amazon for the ebook to be $2 and 99 cents

Originality

1 / 20

There is no original thinking, no contrarian argument, and no framework of any kind - the episode is a pure promotional ad read with no intellectual content to assess.

I do want to just pop in here today on Wednesday, October 11, 2023 to announce that I have a new book available
it really is a step by step guide to write, publish and grow the story that lives inside of you

Guest Caliber

2 / 20

There is no guest; this is a solo host monologue. The host is the founder of a small publishing company, but no credentials, track record at scale, or relevant B2B practitioner experience are demonstrated in the episode.

this is Jen T. Grace. I am the founder and publisher and CEO of Publish your Purpose
I have not facilitated a cohort in a couple of years

Specificity & Evidence

3 / 20

The only specific details present are promotional logistics (price points, dates, program structure), not evidence or data that would educate a B2B operator; the numbers serve marketing copy, not substantive learning.

today specifically I have a deal on Amazon for the ebook to be $2 and 99 cents
it is a six month program. It meets on Tuesdays and Fridays

Conversational Craft

1 / 20

This is an unscripted solo monologue with no interviewing, no questions, no follow-ups, and no pushback of any kind; craft is entirely absent as a concept in this format.

And so the reason I am jumping in here today is to get in front of you to let you know that this book is available
So that is everything.

Episode notes

Today Publish Your Purpose: A Step-By-Step Guide To Write, Publish, and Grow Your Big Idea launched! Get the ebook for $2.99 on Amazon . Today is my book launch, which I am quite excited about. And the book is called publish your purpose. It is a step by step guide to write, publish and grow your big idea, which might be the first time I have said the title and subtitle succinctly without botching it. So I'm impressed its launch day, here we are. So I'm excited about this conversation today. Because instead of just having this be a kind of me going on and on about my new book, and how excited I am with my new book, I am bringing in a bunch of other authors who have worked on their books for quite some time, in some cases, where, you know, some of us painfully moved through the publishing process, the the writing process and the publishing process. And some of us just kind of crank it out fast. And everyone's kind of a, in a different place in a different journey. And so, for me, this book started on July 9, of 2020. And so it was kind of a, I started it, I put it down, I started it, I put it down, it's kind of a lot of this back and forth.

Speaker A: Foreign this is Jen T. Grace. I am the founder and publisher and CEO of Publish your Purpose. And I am doing this really quick mini episode on this podcast that you haven't heard from me in, in a while. So it's been a, it's been a minute since I have recorded uh, an episode. But I do want to just pop in here today on Wednesday, October 11, 2023 to announce that I have a new book available called Publish youh Purpose, A step by step guide to write, publish and grow your big idea. And so the reason I am jumping in here today is to get in front of you to let you know that this book is available and it really is a step by step guide to write, publish and grow the story that lives inside of you. And today specifically I have a deal on Amazon for the ebook to be $2 and 99 cents. It'll be 9.99 starting tomorrow. But I wanted to give access, you know, make it a reduced price for anyone who is interested in getting a hand, uh, getting their hands on it. So it is 299 today on October 11th. If you catch it tomorrow on October 12th, there's a chance it still might still, still might say 299 just based on how long it takes to update the pricing. So you might be able to check it out tomorrow as well. But if you definitely want to get it for, for the three dollar mark, please go ahead and do that today. It is also available in paperback, it is available in audiobook and it is also available in an ebook. If you are interested in purchasing a hand, a hard copy that is signed by me in or in um, hardcover or paperback. Both of them are available on my website@publishyourpurpose.com book so you were able to get a hand signed version there. I also include um, a bookmark with the signature. I have a little something extra that I um, do inside the books that are signed that are sent to you. So that is everything. I had a wonderful book launch celebration this morning. And so if you were looking to learn a little bit more about the book itself, you are welcome to head over to any of my social media channels. So if you go to LinkedIn and you go to Jen T. Grace, remember Jen with two NS or if you go to Facebook or, or LinkedIn on publisher purpose or YouTube at uh, publisher purpose, it is live in all of those locations. So please by all means head on over there. Check it out. If you have any questions related to the book, you are welcome to email me which is jennishyourpurpose.com that is my actual email address. It will come directly to me and I'm happy to answer any questions that you have going on about the book. The uh, final thing that I will mention is that we have a cohort of the Getting Started for Authors program happening on October 2018, 4th. So that is just under two weeks away. I am really excited about it. We have one seat left for it. So maybe as the time you were listening to this, you are thinking, hm, I might be interested in getting started with my book. And so with the Getting Started for Authors program. It is a six month program. It meets on Tuesdays and Fridays to discuss both the strategy of your book, how you're going to get it, you know, both written but also marketed and published. Talking about the distribution of your book, what makes a good title and subtitle, what makes a good cover, in addition to meeting times on Fridays where we focus on the writing. So the goal is by the end of the six month period of time to have a manuscript written and completed and an idea or at the very least a uh, direction to head in as it relates to how you might want to publish your book. So that is what is coming in store on October 21st, 24th. The next time we will run that program probably won't be until February or March. So if you were looking to kind of get in and have a draft complete by March, then now is your chance. Actually, I believe it goes from October 24th to April 30th. So I do believe we are going through the end of April with this next session. And the juicy little nugget is I happen to be facilitating this next session. I have not facilitated a cohort in a couple of years. I have an amazing team who helps facilitate and this time around we want to make some, some improvements and really want to, to be a little more intentional about how we are teaching and how we're instructing. So I am going to be there. And so if you want a chance to work with me one on one at a much better price point than if we're working one. Uh, if you want to work with me in a group setting, I should be saying where I typically am not, then you will get access to me in that group setting versus the cost that usually comes with working one on one. So it' cool opportunity and I'm genuinely looking forward to getting back into the saddle and uh, working with some awesome authors. And the, the group has seats for six people, so we have five people. We're just looking for one more person to join us to round out our very intimate environment. And so if you're writing a book that is around, you know, a memoir or you're writing a non fiction book, maybe it's business, it's leadership, self help, diversity, equity and inclusion. Anything in that range. If that's kind of the book that you are thinking about and you're motivated to do something about it and really want to help make a bigger impact in the by putting your book out through the through thought leadership in the form of a book, this might be the program for you. So if you want to email me about that, you can do so@jenpublishyourpurpose.com Again, Jen with two N's. I'm happy to answer any questions. We can hop on a call we can talk through to see if the program is the right fit for you. But uh, yeah, I just want to make sure that I mentioned that as well. And again, the book is Publish your purpose, a step by step guide to write, publish and grow your big idea. It is available wherever books are sold. You are welcome to go to your favorite online retailer, walk into a local bookstore, whatever it might be. You are welcome to do that to get the book in your hands. But as of today, October 11th, it is available for $3 on Amazon in the ebook format. So if that is helpful for you, please go ahead and take advantage of it. And thank you for tuning into this kind of a, um, mini, mini impromptu episode. And I do hope to be back at some point in the future with more episodes of this podcast. Thank you so much. Please let me know if there's anything I could do for you.
