Short YouTube video by Julie Broad (published July 1, 2025) calling out ineffective AI-generated book-pitch emails, contrasting them with personalized outreach. She promotes her tool, Author Launch Kit, as a way to generate targeted podcast-pitch lists and angles, and announces a personal content-posting challenge for July to post daily and invites topic suggestions in the comments.
Chapters
Are you crafting pitches to promote your book, but the result is crickets. Well, check out this email I just got. It starts off, dear esteemed podcast Host, I like that title, but it says, I love your show. Thank you for creating such good content. I'm reaching out to explore the possibility of a cross promotional endeavor. I don't have a podcast, so tell me a robot wrote this without telling me. A robot wrote this, right? You're not doing that, are you? Please tell me you're not doing that. This is why we created Author Launch Kit, by the way. You spend a bit of time filling out the form so that it knows you, it knows your book, it knows your voice, and then inside, you're going to get a list of podcasts that you can pitch, complete with angles. Using tools like Author Launch Kit to make your marketing more effective and efficient is just smart. But let's make sure you don't sound like you ate batteries for breakfast. By the way, I challenged my Author Business Accelerator members to post content every single day this month. And as we were posting that challenge, I realized I don't do that. So for the month of July, I'm going to post a piece of content every single day. So if you have a topic you want me to cover, let me know in the comments.
