Book marketing is brand building

If you plan to write more than one book your book marketing serves as more than just a sales tool.

Successful, full-time indie authors use book marketing to promote their brand and keep their titles top of mind for their current fans, and to draw in new buyers.

Plus, the most effective book marketing approaches don’t simply push product, they create a connection with fans that keep them coming back for more.

Which leads me to my next point…

100+ The Book Designer by David Kudler

So you’ve finished your book. You cleaned up the text, added optimized images, pulled together all of the front- and back-matter, and created a cover. You converted it into ePub ebook format — either using an app on your computer or online. You’ve made sure the ebook file is valid and meets your standards. You’ve uploaded the file to your first retailer/aggregator and you’ve added all of the metadata, and you’re almost ready to hit PUBLISH, but you’re down to the very last choice…

What price are you going to sell your ebook at?

This question is the cause of more anxious (or panicked) messages and phone calls from clients and friends than any other. So here are six secrets to setting the price for your ebook.

After all, there’s no real basis for a price — no “fixed cost,” unlike a print book, which has per-unit costs to print and ship (and store, etc.). You could name any price you wanted. If you wanted.

So where do we start?

There’s something about the New Year that inspires people to set goals for themselves. Authors take note: other than aiming to finish your next book in 2018, commit to tracking your reading habits by participating in the Goodreads Reading Challenge.

The Goodreads Reading Challenge allows you to set a goal for how many books you want to read this year, and then helps you keep track of that goal. Last year, more than 3 million readers participated in the challenge and pledged to read 3.4 million books. At the end of the year, Goodreads creates a compelling infographic for each member with stats on the books and fun badges that the member unlocked along the way.

15 Ways To Promote All Books

January 13, 2018 8:18 am / 2 Comments on 15 Ways To Promote All Books

In the fake news era and the faux fake news campaign put out by President Trump, Americans increasingly don’t know what to believe or understand the difference between fact and fiction or news and opinion.  Where shall they turn for guidance?

Books.

Libraries, bookstores, and schools play an even bigger role in society than we could have imagined five years ago.  Now, more than ever, we must rely more on our books to help us know what’s going on in the world.

You might want to start by reading books of fact, such as an almanac. Or you may need a refresher on free speech.  The net neutrality law that’s been decimated by the Trump administration will injure intellectual freedom in this country.  Perhaps you should just read George Orwell’s 1984, because we are living in some of that world right now.

Trump even recently limited how words like science or abortion can be used by federal agencies.  It’s just a blatant attack on reality, down to the words that we use to describe things.

Books are what will save us – but not completely.  Books do us no good if they don’t inform the masses.  Further, they mustn’t just inform us – they must enlighten and move us to take action.

For some, books are a luxury or something not viewed as important.  For others, they escape from reality with fiction, further eroding their involvement in society.  We need everyone to literally be on the same page.

So what role can you play in all of this?
