About the episode

In this episode, AJ and Mike answer one of the most common questions they get from first-time authors. How the heck are you supposed to get an endorsement for your book? How do you ask a Big Name someone for a shout-out? This week our duo not only tells you the dos, they give you the absolute do nots so authors can ask the Big Ask in a way that feels good. They’ll even cover how to follow up on a “no” and why it’s not always a closed door.

—AJ Harper


“I think the first time you connect with an influencer, be super curious about that person as a person, what their interests are, what they’re excited about.”

—Mike Michalowicz
