    About this ebook

    Real book marketing tips, secrets, hacks and ideas for new and experienced authors.

     

    "A really useful toolkit of ideas to dip into and try. Clearly written in a friendly, non-jargon style. Very helpful suggestion from the author to read through once otherwise it's very tempting to start trying ideas and going off at a tangent without a complete picture. Some interesting and thought provoking ideas for self- marketing." 5* Review from Heather4104

     

    Have you self-published a non-fiction book, novel, self-help book, business book, memoir or inspirational book?

    And feel frustrated because your book sales have dried up?

     

    Or are you about to self-publish your book in the next few weeks?

    And want to kickstart your book promotion strategy before you hit publish?

     

    Grab a copy of 77 Book Marketing Ideas now and discover:

    How to sell books online through social media.

    Hacks to sell books in the most subtle ways you could ever imagine.

    • How to promote your books offline (in the real world!).
    • Ways to sell your book if selling's not your thing (I'm talking to fellow introverts here).
    • Content marketing and blogging tips to build your author profile and get more eyes on your books (and money in your bank).

     

    Navigating the self-publishing world is tricky, but your lack of book sales isn't always a reflection of its quality. Nor is it because you're aren't advertising – that's not the only way to sell books. You're either not doing any book marketing at all or you're not doing enough.

     

    The key to regular royalties and book sale success for any author lies in consistency, testing what works and monitoring which ideas and approaches work for you and your book. So don't give up on your author dream. Keep promoting your book, marketing your author brand and you'll see those royalties start to trickle through.
