How This Works 
Most copywriters use swipe files, templates, and proven frameworks to get started, and then adapt them to fit the tone and message. The assistants inside The Writer’s Biz Crew  work like interactive templates.  

Unlike static swipe files, they can respond, ask questions, and help draw out the details you already have in your head. You bring your ideas,  voice, and knowledge of your readers. The Crew shows you how to turn your raw thoughts into something usable.

Step 1: Log in to your private classroom and go through the onboarding course.

Step 2: Choose the Crew member that fits the task you want to tackle. Each follows a specialized system for a specific part of your author business.

Step 3: Work with your assistants to make progress on your book promotion while protecting your writing time and keeping your schedule manageable. The course includes current setup and access instructions, which I’ll update as the technology evolves.

The assistants aren't meant to give you final, publish-ready marketing copy. You’re still the one making the decisions and crafting the final content. The Crew  just gets you to that point faster.
What Users Are Saying
Gave Me a Workable Idea and Post
Michelle

“I loved this bot. I’ve been slacking on my Substack, and within only a few minutes, Noah gave me a workable idea and post. He was very easy to use, and offered suggestions which really got this moving.” 

Such a Time-Conserver

“Madison was very easy to talk to. The initial ideas and further work means I feel confident I can come up with some genuinely useful ideas. Such a time-conserver.”

Hi, I'm Stacy Juba.

I’ve published books with traditional and indie publishers, worked as a journalist, and edited hundreds of manuscripts across genres. I’ve also managed launches, newsletters, and promotions for my own work.


I created The Writer’s Biz Crew after seeing how much time these marketing tasks can take and how often they get pushed aside. I developed the instructions, workflows, and resources behind the Crew using the same kinds of frameworks I use in my own business, geared toward authors who want a steady approach to marketing.

FAQS

  • How is this different from using ChatGPT (or other AI tools)?
    ChatGPT is a blank slate. You have to figure out what to ask, how to phrase it, and how to guide the response.

    Each assistant in The Writer’s Biz Crew is already set up for a specific task—like newsletters, launch planning, outreach, or scheduling. Every assistant also includes its own evaluation form, so you can give feedback on what’s working and what isn’t. I review these and update the assistants periodically to keep improving them.

    Some tools try to generate your entire marketing system in one click. But that often leaves you with pages of generic content to sort through and rewrite so it sounds like you. That can quickly become its own kind of overwhelm, and it’s easy to set it aside and not use it at all.

    The Writer’s Biz Crew works differently. It helps you move one task forward at a time, so you can develop the message, stay in control, and finish what you start.
  • Will you include workflows that help me write my book?
    No. This team is focused on running your author business, not writing your book. They’ll assist with the admin and marketing side, so you have more time and energy to focus on the creative work that only you can do.
  • What happens to Writer’s Biz Crew when Custom GPTs are retired in 2026?
    You’ll still have access to the systems behind your Crew. Each Crew member was built from detailed instructions, workflows, examples, and knowledge resources that I developed specifically for that role.

    I’m currently converting the Crew’s underlying instructions, workflows, and knowledge resources into Skills files, which I expect to add to the course in October 2026. These will give you more flexibility to use the Crew’s systems beyond the current Custom GPT format, including with other AI platforms that support this type of setup.

    I’m also closely following OpenAI’s migration process and waiting for more details about the new plugin options, including which ChatGPT plans can use them and whether I’ll be able to share migrated plugins directly with Writer’s Biz Crew customers.

    For now, the existing Custom GPTs remain available. As the transition develops, I’ll update the course with the resources and instructions you need, so you won’t have to figure out the changes on your own.
  • Will this sound like AI?
    If you copy and paste without editing, it will sound like AI. The assistants help you get going and structure your ideas, but you’re putting it into your own words, adding details, and shaping the final version. You’re starting with an interactive template you can build on.

    When you use it as a starting point, The Writer’s Biz Crew helps you find your voice, not replace it.
  • Are there any refunds?
    Due to the digital nature of the program and immediate access to valuable content, all sales are final.

More Testimonials 

“Instructions are clear and precise."

"I love the Handbook. That will be so helpful and reminded me I have to train ChatGPT just as I would a person.” 

"Makes me a lot more confident in using ChatGPT to help me market my stories.”  

“Erica gave me the weekly breakdowns so I could put them into my diary. Now I know what I’m working on between now and the end of Q1.”

"I ended up accepting different ways of looking at the two writing projects I need to get done. Different terminology on priorities meant I gained clarity on what really was important.
