Reviews from Publishing Ph.D. Participants

“There’s no one who runs an author coaching course like Honoree Corder. Her literal “step by step” approach to writing and publishing is proven, powerful and effective. I’ve published three books in the last year since I took Publishing PhD, and if I hadn’t taken the course, I’m sure I would still be on book one—and struggling. I can honestly say that the course is worth 10 times what I paid for it, as far as the skill and knowledge I gained.

I guess you could “figure it all out yourself“ by searching sites all over the Internet for months, but after taking Publishing PhD, I can’t imagine doing that. Honoree taught me things that I didn’t even know that I needed to know— and saved me hundreds of hours of research!
When someone tells me they are serious about writing a book, the first thing I do is direct them to Honoree Corder—hands down the best of the best.”

“If you think Honoree’s course is just for aspiring authors, you’re mistaken. I enrolled in her course after I had self-published not one, but two bestselling books on financial literacy. Why? Because I was aware that there was still a lot I didn’t know, and I wanted to take my existing books and revenue from awesome to exceptional. I knew that Honoree had the experience and track record to help me. My gut feeling that I was missing some key pieces was spot on. I learned so much more from Honoree’s course than all the other courses, webinars, and books I had read on self-publishing combined.With Honoree’s guidance, I updated my front and back book matter, decided to roll out a second edition of my first bestseller, launched my first online course, learned how and where to advertise, and learned the extremely valuable ins & outs of how “Amazon magic” works.The launch strategies themselves were worth the money. Honoree showed the class how to manage a successful Advanced Reader Team, how to efficiently manage my social media, and how to generate additional revenue streams from your book. She also introduced me to countless vital resources like BookFunnel, Bookbub, and Kindlepreneur.I can’t say enough about the insane amount of value that this course delivers. It exceeded all expectations (and trust me, I’m one tough cookie.) Thank you so much Honoree!”
