Let\u2019s say you have a new book out. You know it needs to be promoted, but you just don\u2019t have the time. You have a life, after all. What should you do? <\/p>\n
Ideally, you would think about this before you write your book. If you aren\u2019t going to take charge and promote your own book, if you don\u2019t feel you\u2019ll have time to promote it, if you find the very idea of book promotion distasteful, then I\u2019d advise against publishing a book. Maybe wait until you retire and have more time to devote to this extremely time-consuming, energy-draining activity.<\/p>\n
If you\u2019ve already produced the book\u2014it\u2019s a done deal\u2014if you want it to sell, you\u2019d better learn the ropes of book promotion. Or you can hire someone to do the promotion for you. This week, I\u2019ll be doing some research for a client with regard to book publicists, companies and individuals who do book promotion, etc. I hope to have something to report to my client and I\u2019d like to share my findings with you, too. It will be interesting to see what I discover. At this point, I still maintain that the author is the best publicity agent for his\/her book. That\u2019s why I write books, articles and blog posts on the topic of book promotion. That\u2019s why I go out and speak to authors about how to promote your book. But we\u2019ll see if my research reveals anything to change my way of thinking. Stay tuned.<\/p>\n
