If you want to market your book and need information along with resources to help sell your book - you've come to the right place. We can also provide ways to help sell your book and establish key marketing tactics and tips to help you develop the right strategy for promoting your book. Vision Distribution can guide you to market your book without spending a lot of money.Once you have published your book, the next thing for you to do is start publicizing your book. If you don't have a large marketing budget you have to use every free resource you can to publicize your book. 1. Brand yourself. You are your own brand, because you are the author you are the brand. When people speak of you what do you want them to connect you with? For example: when you say Steven Spielberg or Tyler Perry want do you think about? That's what branding is all about. 2. Know your readers. Know who and where your readers are before you announce your book release. Know your readers besides your close friends and family who would be on your announcement list. To broaden your list make sure you use all of your internet base connections. Your friends on Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, LinkedIn and more will put your release announcement on a wider global scale. If you are not connected to any of the above internet base sites you need to build your profile and join the new age of advertising.3. Brand yourself. You are your own brand, because you are the author you are the brand. When people speak of you, what would you want them to connect you with? For example: when you say Steven Spielberg or Tyler Perry want do you think about? That's what branding is all about. 4. Know how to respond. When being asked about your book, know what youre going to say in advance. Therefore your answers will always be consistent and accurate. Know your genre of audience that your book appeals to and answer your questions according.5. Have own website. As an author you must have your own website. Regardless of how much promotion and advertising you do, you cant be successful in generating internet interest without having a website. If you want to build your name as an author globally you can't reach the world without the internet. Make the investment in yourself, it would be worth it. 6. Everyone is a customer. When talking to your potential readers remember everyone is a buyer. When you are selling a product you represent that product. When networking, always get business cards and emails to add in your data base. 7. Always have book promo material.Always carry a business card or advertising material. Invest in 4x6 flyers that have your book cover and purchase/contact information on them. When you go to an event you have to always be prepared.8. Plug your book.Never turn down an opportunity to plug your book. If you have an opportunity to speak about your book at a conference, workshop, college event, etc. go for it! This will build your reader base.9. Work with a publicist. Fnd a publicist to work with in preparing a publicity campaign. A strong campaign should run at least 2-3 months prior to your book release and 2-3 months after the release in supporting book sales opportunities.10. Work smart!________________________________________________________________*If you are in need of our marketing services please email us at :info_visiondistribution.com
