How do you sell your books? Which of your activities, events or ploys result in the most book sales? Is there a particular region where you sell more books? If you haven\u2019t figured this out, it\u2019s time that you do. <\/p>\n
Do you sell more books during speaking engagements, demonstrations and presentations? What about book festivals or book signings? Maybe you notice an increase in book sales after an article appears with your bio in a publication related to the theme or genre of your book. Or do you notice an upsurge in book sales after you\u2019ve sent press releases to dozens of newspapers?<\/p>\n
While I recommend that authors try a variety of book promotion activities, it makes sense to spend most of your energies and time on the one or two that bring the most results.<\/p>\n
So this week, why not go where the money is. If you sell a lot of books when you go out and speak about it, set up more speaking engagements. If book fairs are lucrative for you, take time this week to seek some out. Maybe you sold large quantities of your business marketing book to a local company for an employee incentive program. Why not contact companies in other communities and offer them the same deal.<\/p>\n
I\u2019m definitely a fan of new promotional activities and I urge you to always be attempting something new. You never know when you\u2019ll find another best way to sell your book. In the meantime, however, sell more books now doing what works best for you and your book. This is no time to kick back and get comfortable. These certainly aren\u2019t the best of times for authors with books to promote. So you\u2019re going to have to get serious, get moving and get those sales the best way you know how.<\/p>\n
