Having your own book is fantastic – but you also need to sell that book!
Marketing is your money tree – you need to put effort in for it to grow!
I have been an avid student of marketing and sales for the last year, reading countless books and listening to audio programs to ensure I knew what I was doing. I recently won an Award for the Best Marketing Plan for self-published books which included an overview of all the different types of things you can do to market your book.
As this site is all about author education, I am sharing it with you – just right click to download from the link below.
It includes ideas in the categories of PR, press releases, TV, speaking, networking, book launches, internet promotion, articles, advertising, joint ventures, corporates sales. All of these areas are covered in existing posts or I will be blogging them in posts to come. Some ideas are included in the Key Articles section, and you can subscribe to this blog for the next posts.
“Marketing is sharing your love for what you do with the people
who will most celebrate hearing about it.”
