How Do You Market Your Books As An Author?
Answered by:
As an author and marketer by trade I was blown away to know that the average book sells 87 copies! 87! I almost fell out of my chair. I did just over 12,000 in sales before I stopped and moved onto other things. But then again, I'm a marketing guy by trade, and formerly a club promoter, so I had the tools. Here's a quick list of some of my techniques:
- There will always be some media somewhere that are willing to give you coverage.
- An SEO press release.
- A telling video.
- Actively pushing on social media.
- Book price deals for social sharing.
- Tapping into my personal network.
- Spending the time to join online book clubs.
Hope that helps. If you need any hardcore marketing assistance, let me know. I love working with new clients. (especially create clients).
