Sean is a legendary copywriter, an affiliate marketing expert, and creator of The Increase Academy. He is known for his role as an affiliate manager for Thai Lopez and Sam Evans. His new book, Seven Figure Marketing Copy, teaches people how to craft engaging copy that sells.

His book “has become the star in the center of my solar system, and it was born out of the collection of SOP in my own business.” Sean designed his copy and visuals for his book using his 15 years of design experience as he wanted his book to be visually engaging.

Sean decided not to sell his book on Amazon, the most popular bookselling platform. “I got to the point where this was a minimal viable book and published it in my membership area as a digital book.” Starting out with 85 pages, Sean decided to get input from his followers to improve and add content to his book, which is now over 400 pages.

Because he didn’t have his book published on Amazon, Sean didn’t have to go through the process of multiple editions to get his book to a point where he wanted to publish. Now that he has updated and edited his book numerous times with years of feedback from his base, Sean is planning on publishing his “first edition” on Amazon.
