Most authors think marketing means promotion, pressure, or constantly “selling themselves.”

In this episode of the Published Creator Podcast, I sit down with Keisha Williams, creator of the Money Alphabet: ABC of Money Activity Coloring Book, to explore a very different approach—one that feels natural, relational, and effective.

What began as a simple idea to help her nephew learn about money has grown into a book that sparks conversations, builds confidence, and spreads organically through everyday interactions. No hype. No ads. No aggressive tactics. Just clarity, consistency, and sharing the work in real life.

This episode is a real-world case study in how authors can market their books simply by talking about them in meaningful ways—and why that approach often outperforms waiting on Amazon or social media algorithms to do the work for you.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why the most effective book marketing rarely feels like marketing
• How everyday conversations can become your most powerful promotional tool
• What makes a book naturally shareable
• How simplicity and clarity help ideas spread
• Why books that create dialogue tend to create opportunities

If you’re an author (or aspiring author) who wants your book to do more than sit on a sales page, this episode will help you rethink how momentum is really built.
