Inside Hive Mind, we help you simplify your marketing, improve your results, and build momentum month after month.
Feeling stuck with your book marketing?
Maybe you’ve tried launching on social. Boosted a post. Joined a few promo sites. Maybe even ran ads—but still didn’t see the needle move.
You’re not lazy. You’re not doing it wrong. You just need a place to get clear strategy, real feedback, and support that doesn’t disappear after the webinar ends.
That’s where Hive Mind comes in.
Imagine this instead:
You open your dashboard and know exactly what to focus on this week.
You tweak your blurb or ad, and see real improvement in clicks and sales.
You post a question and get supportive, actionable feedback.
You launch with confidence—because you’re not doing it alone.

What Authors are saying!
"Transformative and Essential for Indie Authors!
Bonnie Paulson and Mandie Stevens have truly outdone themselves with their Hive Mind courses!
As an author, I’ve taken my fair share of writing and marketing courses, but nothing has come close to the depth, clarity, and actionable strategies these two experts provide. Their courses break down complex topics into simple, step-by-step processes that make marketing feel not only doable but exciting.
Whether you’re just starting or looking to scale your publishing business, Hive Mind offers the tools and insights to help you succeed. The strategies I’ve implemented have already made a significant impact on my author career.
I highly recommend Hive Mind to any author serious about thriving in the publishing world. Thank you, Bonnie and Mandie, for sharing your knowledge and empowering authors! "

Hi, we're Mandie Stevens and Bonnie Paulson
FINDING YOUR INDIE
We want to help guide you toward marketing success with your author business.
Keep in mind, we can guide you and give all the knowledge and tips and tricks we have, but it's going to take your effort and consistency to get it done.
We can't wait to see what we can do together.
When does my membership start?
Everything starts immediately!
What if I don't find it helpful?
If you don't find Hive Mind helpful, you can cancel at any time. No worries. You'll finish out your month with us and we'll be sad to see you go, but we'll part as friends and hope you come back ;).
Are you available 24/7?
Ha, I wish.
I'm not even available 24/7 to myself.
We do have families and sleep and, well, life we have to live. So we are available in the Hive Mind group frequently. The only days where we do NOT get on are Sundays. Mandie and Bonnie might take a day here or there (we each have children and husbands), but the other one will be in.
We will have popup calls as well as scheduled ad calls - meaning we'll get on a zoom and invite Hive members to join us and then we will talk out ads, data, maybe audience tips, etc. Ask Us Anything will be the name of the game!
AND MORE!
What do I get access to?
In Hive Mind, you'll have access to all of the courses that are published previously as well as any courses that are published each month you're a member. We have 18 months worth of courses planned out SO FAR in the author marketing and ads arena. We have a lot of knowledge and we want to help others succeed. The only months we won't be releasing new courses are the 4 when Boss Mode is running - these are not consecutive months and are the months before the start of each quarter. But with all of the other courses (sometimes 2 a month!), you'll probably be relieved!
Not to mention we have a Facebook group you'll be invited into where we will be answering questions and getting into the nitty gritty with the Hive members.
Can I get a refund if I'm unhappy with my purchase?
