S11 Ep 8: From Video Marketing to a 6-Figure-Author-Business & Coach: Matt Holmes

Matt says he was a quiet boy at school who could often be found in the library – but its this love of learning which has taken him to where he wants to be. First, learning about film and photography, he then worked at the BBC and later went on to create his own video marketing company. But when Covid hit, Matt lost his entire business overnight. His wife, Lori, was pregnant with twins and suddenly their main source of income had gone. But Lori was following her own passion – writing books, so Matt went back to learning. He learnt how to create Facebook ads and get Lori’s books out in the world – and my goodness they’ve done this. They’ve taken Lori’s books to a six-figure business -  all around their young family -  and now Matt’s helping other authors to get their books out in the world too. He says he wants to plant a seed in writer’s minds to show them what’s possible. He’s done exactly this with me which is why I wanted to introduce him to you. Because whether your passion is books or living a life where you simply do more of what you love – Matt believes it really is possible. It’s not just about learning, but applying what you learn too. He says it’s all about deciding what direction we really want to go in and he gives some  wonderful advice to help us work out how.
