Those who want to write a book believe writing it is hard. Those who have written a book discover that marketing the book is harder.

Learn why creating your book marketing strategy is the most important thing you can do for your author career and your business, and how to create your own.

In section one of the book, Getting Started, you'll explore your objectives, target audience, your unique selling proposition, how to scan your market for competition and broader environmental factors, setting a budget, and placement and pricing strategies.
Section two, Messages and Methods, is a guided tour through decisions you need to make around your web presence, social media, public relations, reader reviews, email marketing, promotional products, handling a book launch, your book signing kit, and advertising.
Section three is about Taking Action. Here's where you'll learn how to create your tactical timeline, pull together contact lists, how to set baseline measurement and track metrics. It's also where you'll learn how to craft your book overview and strategy brief, and then pull it all together into a polished, professional marketing strategy that will bolster your confidence, impress others, and ensure you never again wonder what you should do today to market your nonfiction book.
