It’s almost unheard of these days in publishing for an author to get a high five-figure book advance, let alone six figures.
It’s difficult even to get any literary agent to take on your book, let alone one of the top literary agents in the country.
Yet one author managed to do both.
On Thursday, I’m going to grill this author, Noah St. John, on how he did this.
And YOU also get a chance to ask Noah your question as well.
I plan to ask how long it took him to find an agent, what his book proposal was like, how he made contact with his agent, what it was like to have his book go on auction, what he’s doing now to promote his book, etc.
The “etc.” means YOUR questions.
So go ahead, ask Noah and sign up for the very first “great author promotions” teleseminar, in which we’ll learn from successful authors what their proven secrets are.
The teleseminar is at the usual Publishing Coach Weekly time: Thursday at 1 pm Eastern, noon Central, 11 am. Mountain and 10 am Pacific. There will be a replay is you miss it, but attending live means you can ask Noah questions that occur to you during the interview.
One more thing: No doubt a big part of Noah’s success is his actually doing what his book is about. Title: The Secret Code of Success. It’s not your typical “success/self-help book”; there’s real meat here beyond the kind of “believe it and it will happen” advice so prevalent today. You can get his great insights for less than $14 at amazon.
Then, you’ll be eligible to attend his free bookinar and really put into action what you learn. We’ll tell you how to access the bookinar on the teleseminar.
How to Get Readers to Actually Read Your Book: Case Study of a Bookinar

Noah St. John’s new book, The Secret Code of Success, just came out, and he’s doing some innovative things to promote his message that are worth studying.
(By the way, he got a six-figure advance for the book from a major publisher, no doubt on the strength of the content, the platform he’d already built, and his marketing plan.)
Noah is currently doing a “bookinar” in which, over the course of 4 or 5 modules, he is being interviewed by Alex Mandossian about the content of the book. The book is your “ticket” to attend the webinar, which makes sense, since the book is the curriculum. On the bookinar Noah explains the book, and gives exercises that will enable you to get the most out of the content.
It’s a lot like a Virtual Book Tour, but it goes a step beyond by becoming an interactive course, based on the book.
Brilliant. This is “New Era Publishing” strategy at its best. Noah is providing a way for readers to Read More→
