J.J. Hebert is the founder and CEO of the award-winning MindStir Media, a publishing company ranked by many outlets as one of the best book publishers in the United States. On top of running MindStir, J.J. is also massively successful as a Wall Street Journal and USA Today bestselling author. He shares his experiences as a top author on Forbes, Entrepreneur and his own blog — in addition to his social media.
His claim to fame is that he is one of the most followed authors and book publishing professionals in the world. On Instagram alone he recently surpassed 1 million followers. According to mention.com, users with over 1 million Instagram followers represent only 0.18% of total users on Instagram. That amount is surely much smaller when it comes to authors and publishers specifically.
“I started posting on Instagram in 2020 during the pandemic,” J.J. stated. “ I had already amassed a following on Twitter and Facebook at that point, but I wanted to open myself up to other platforms and reach more people. I saw Instagram as a perfect fit.”
Users on Instagram quickly embraced his content. He tends to post valuable book publishing and book marketing related tips in his stories, and he shares his latest media coverage and announcements in his posts. In a post dated March 11, 2023 he announced that he is releasing a segment on ABC Action News entitled JJ’s Reads. In early April of this year, he also posted a video endorsement for MindStir Media from Rick Harrison of the show Pawn Stars. The post has attracted over 24,000 likes.
J.J. Hebert and his company MindStir Media are partnered with Mariel Hemingway and Shark Tank’s Kevin Harrington. International Business Times called MindStir the best book publisher in LA. As a leading publisher, J.J. Hebert has become the go-to source for authors looking to grow their audience. Go to https://mindstirmedia.com to learn about his programs for authors.
