Bobby Kim became a 6-figure indie author before he turned 21 by writing good books and using FB ads. Now he helps other authors achieve the same success with the Indie Author Academy.
I had so much fun chatting with Bobby that I couldn’t stop. We ended up recording for well over an hour, so we’re sharing the interview in two part. This first week, you’ll hear his fascinating author journey and start getting tips on FB ads. Next week we’ll continue the deep-dive into FB ads and how they can help you build your indie author business.
