2.8.19 Women's Empowerment Luncheon at American Girl Bistro

We invite you to join Julia Kent, author of such series as the On Hold Series, the Shopping Series & many more! 

Using bottom-up design to build a creative product that sells and finding a market niche is Business 101. You want to develop a product or a service to meet customer needs.

Obvious, right?

But how does it work when your product is fiction? In 2012, as gatekeepers in publishing found themselves in uncharted territory with the new wave of digital self-publishing was emerging, Julia had set out to create the right product to meet what audiences were searching for. In other words, she inverted the typical paradigm regarding creative output. She didn't write what she knew, she wrote what readers wanted.

Six years later, Julia had sold 2 million books, has had 4 New York Times and 19 USA Today Bestseller list appearances. Her self-published books are sold by all major retailers, are available in libraries, translated into two languages, and sell in over one hundred countries every year through global distribution networks in eBook, print, and audiobook. She is her own publisher.

And it all began with bottom-up design. 

About Julia Kent:

New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Julia Kent writes romantic comedy with an edge. Since 2013, she has sold more than 2 million books, with 4 New York Times bestsellers and more than 19 appearances on the USA Today bestseller list. Her books have been translated into French and German, with more titles releasing in 2019.
 
From billionaires to BBWs to new adult rock stars, Julia finds a sensual, goofy joy in every contemporary romance she writes. Unlike Shannon from Shopping for a Billionaire, she did not meet her husband after dropping her phone in a men's room toilet (and he isn't a billionaire she met in a romantic comedy).
 
She lives in New England with her husband and three children where it appears that she is the only person in the household with the gene required to change empty toilet paper rolls.
 
She loves to hear from her readers by email at jkentauthor@gmail.com, on Twitter @jkentauthor, on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/jkentauthor and on Instagram @jkentauthor

About American Girl Bistro

American Girl believes in creating girls of strong character.
Facing fears, running into roadblocks, and learning from mistakes? That's life. Responding with optimism and resilience? That's character, the kind they build in girls everywhere, every day through stories and experiences both timely and timeless.
Strong characters. Powerful stories. Trusted advice.
In every book they have published (more than 800 of them!) the words they write are chosen with intention and purpose, to inspire girls to think about who they are and who they want to be. From creating beloved characters who become role models to partnering with pediatricians and other experts who offer advice for each stage of girlhood, they give girls the confidence and courage they need to face challenges.

When you walk through the doors of an American Girl store, you enter a place that celebrates individuality and encourages creativity. It's where every experience cements stronger bonds between you and your girl from a shared love of Maryellen or Melody to sharing stories over dessert instead of on social media.

Making the world a brighter place
