Join a ‘Linked In’ network group- don’t under estimate the power of social media

Thanks to my ‘Linked In’ networking writing/author’s group I have learned a lot about the do’s and don’ts (still learning along the way as Suzy would say).

One way to start your PR/Marketing is 1) start a blog.  2) get on facebook, twitter and linked in. 3) join an interest group.  Whether you are a publisher, author, illustrator or designer (even a computer expert), join these groups on Linked In.  They share valuable information as well as possible valuable people who can get you where you need to go.

Don’t under estimate the power of social media.

This little piggy went to the market, this little piggy stayed home…

Have you come up with a marketing plan?  There is so much you will need to do to actually get your book out there.  Start by making a list.

1.  Make a list of all of the book shops you are going to approach

2.  Connect with people on Linkedin, Twitter, and Facebook

3.  Register with Gardener’s on line if you are living in the UK

4.  Don’t forget the small book shops

5.  Send copies to your local library as well as the London library (that one is mandatory)

8.  Be prepared to put a lot of time in calling local distributors (all of the t & c’s will be different)
