Marketing your book

You've written and published your book - you now want to sell.  Here are a few ideas to get those copies sold.

Remember - at the point someone decides to buy your book they need to be able to make the purchase immediately, if they have to wait until later they will often decide not to buy.

• Set up an online profile - use Facebook, Twitter, a website, a blog, YouTube to best advantage.
• Give talks to interest groups - if your book is about saving money then talk to parent groups, WI, schools, in fact any group that may be interested and lets face that is most groups.  You can always focus your talk to the group's needs e.g. saving money on garden purchases for a gardening group.
• Sponsor an event - OK there is a cost here but lots of opportunity to promote your book.
• Give a reading in a library.
• Offer your book as a prize in a raffle or other fundraising event.
• Write a feature for a local newsletter.

You can quickly and easily start promoting and marketing your book today.  So go on - increase those sales.
