Russell Nohelty

There has never been a better time to be an author. There are more ways than ever to succeed, but that means it's easier to get overwhelmed. I'm here to guide you through the publishing landscape and help find a path forward that works for you. 

Sometimes we all get lost and just need a helping hand to point us in the right direction.

Every other industry has a bevy of business coaching, but there are vanishingly few for writers. Luckily, that's where I come in to help you build a more sustainable writing business. 

I'm an expert in the entire publishing chain, having written over 40 books and produced over 1,000 pages of comics. However, these are my biggest areas of expertise. 

I have raised over $475,000 for my own publishing projects, and helped authors raise over $1.2 million in the last couple of years. I have helped hundreds of authors in that time. 

Whether you have questions about building a web store, crafting landing pages that convert, selling at conventions, I have been selling direct to readers for years. 

I have helped thousands of authors build a buying audience from scratch. Whether you have questions about social media, email lists, or automation sequences, I can help.  

Whether you're looking to rebrand your website, expand out into new markets, or better target your ideal readers, I can help. 

While I've not done a ton of Amazon or Bookbub advertising, I am an expert on Facebook Advertising and have helped hundreds of authors lower their CPC and improve profitability.

Along with Monica Leonelle, we have created a system to help authors build successful businesses by utilizing their unique strengths. 

I've produced over 1,000 pages of comics in my career and supervised even more. Whether you're looking to start in comics or move an existing project to comics, I can help. 

I've written over 40 novels and signed over 50 publishing deals in my career. I understand how to write a great novel or story that can sell whether you choose traditional or indie publishing.

I've worked in just about every medium in my career and understand how to take properties from one medium and translate them to a new medium, from movies to board games, I can help. 

Use your natural skills and tendencies to thrive as an author.

WHAT IF YOU COULD know exactly what’s going to work for you before you even try it, understand your audience on a deeper level than you ever have before, make money in a way that aligns with what you love to do instead of what’s working today for some people, and grow your readership in an organic way that makes sense for your business.

Whether you’ve been struggling to get traction in your author career, running on the marketing treadmill barely able to break even, or absolutely killing it as an author, finding your perfect Author Ecosystem can help take you to the next level starting today.

I’ve worked in Advertising and Marketing for over 20 years as a designer
but struggled to grow my audience as an illustrator. It wasn’t until taking Russell’s course that I started to really understand how marketing works today.

There’s not a lot of stuff out there that I haven’t run into before. Russell’s course has several unique lessons right off the bat that make it valuable: Information on how to find your focus, new-to-me tricks audience-building tricks, even Facebook ad tricks I’d never seen before. It’s worth the price, for sure.

I was able to clearly identify my customers pain points and what they struggle with. Most importantly, I was able to clarify just how I can help my audience. No more hoping they will buy my product or services, instead, I am now clear in who I can help and how I can help my customers.

I've been working with Facebook ads for a while now, but Russell...cuts through all the confusion and get's you going straight away...Worth its weight in gold or the money you save by learning how to run Facebook ads properly.

Though I've been very successful in my career, I try to meet authors where they are and try to tailor my advice to where you are in your career right now. 

While the topics we talk about are serious, the whole point of being an author is to do something you love. I never forget that part of it. We'll get serious, and have fun doing it. 

I have worked with hundreds of conventions, schools, and institutions around the world helping authors build better businesses. My advice is the gold standard in author growth.

Even though I'm a nature tundra, I have incorportated strengths from every ecosystem into my business over the years...
