Talking Shop: The Truth About Marketing Your Book

So you’ve written a book. Congrats! It took a lot of effort to get that done.

But guess what? Your work isn’t done once it’s out. You have to market that book.

Let us repeat that: YOU have to market that book. Because the real truth is: your publisher won’t do all the work for you. While they may be invested in seeing your work succeed, you have a role to do too.

But don’t freak out – it’s not as scary as you might think.

Our mission this year is to give you the information you need to get your book out of your head and into the world. From writing habits, to collaboration, to marketing, we’ve got you covered.

In the latest Talking Shop, we’re talking about how to market your book – and why you need to be as dedicated (or more) than your publisher. Because that’s the biggest truth: it’s your baby and you need to show it off loudly and proudly! Smart promotional strategies on your part will help elevate your publication and get more eyes on it. Results: a book that sells well and keeps on selling! Yay!

In this power hour, we’ll discuss:

Myths about marketing your book
How much marketing comes from your publisher – and from you
How soon you need to be talking about your book – and where
Smart marketing ideas – and mistakes to avoid
Best advice for authors
How to overcome your shyness about self-promotion and market in a way that feels authentic to you!

And more!
