    This document outlines the key steps for a successful book launch over a six month period. It recommends validating your book idea six months before launch, setting daily writing goals, and telling others about your book. Three months before launch involves adding bonuses, completing edits and formatting, building a launch team, and sharing progress weekly. One month before launch is submitting the book and sending copies to your team. One week before launch involves publishing the book privately, setting the price high, and scheduling free promotions. Launch day involves three days of free promotions through email, social media, and groups. After launch, the price is gradually raised as bonus material and blog posts are created to engage readers long-term.
