Book Marketing from A - Z by Francine Silverman
Book Description
Book Marketing from A-Z presents personal promotions from hundreds of authors throughout the English-speaking world, whose titles range from one to 100 in all genres. Arranged alphabetically into 35-40 promotional efforts, the 400-page book is easy to navigate.
Book Marketing from A - Z by Francine Silverman, begins as follows:
INTRODUCTION |
| “Writing the book was easy…marketing’s the hard part…my work has only just begun….” Toni Lo Tempio, author of A Spy in the Hand (Publishamerica 2004), the debut novel in the Mr. and Mrs. Spy mystery series. www.freewebs.com/toni1953 |
|
This book grew out of the on-line newsletter I began in March 2003 – Book Promotion Newsletter. www.bookpromotionnewsletter.com. Having written two guidebooks I was intrigued by the promotional process and certain there were other authors seeking innovative ways to promote their books. My research found that while there are plenty of books for businesses on how to market products, and myriad titles on writing and publishing, there is little available on promoting books – either on or off-line. Until recently, no guidance existed on what to do after publication. Today there are a handful of book marketing gurus who were wise enough to carve a niche early on. |
| “The author is the only one that can make a book come alive and keep it alive.” Lillian Larry, author of Understanding Salvation: From the Depths of Darkness into the Marvelous Light (Xlibris Corporation 2003) and Living by the Truth, presently being reviewed by Publish America. www.lulu.com |

I started with ten subscribers and at this writing have 1400, including authors of all genres and expertise, publicists, book coaches, reviewers and editors. Subscribers are from all over the English-speaking world; some are Americans living abroad. When someone signs up, I send them a questionnaire, asking about their best promotional coups and criticisms. I also ask what they’ve learned as a published author, and the response is always the same - that promotion is their responsibility – be their publisher Random House or AuthorHouse. _________________________________________________________________________ Book Marketing from A - Z by Francine Silverman, ©2005.
