Day 186
“I have always believed that writing
advertisements is the second most profitable form of writing. The first, of
course, is ransom notes...”
~ Philip
Dusenberry
Earning a living off our book royalties is like every
authors dream – but books don’t sell themselves. I often think of writing books
as my hobby or favorite pastime. Yet marketing, that’s my job. Books in and of
themselves will rarely make you a dime, the real money comes from marketing
them. That’s what brings in the book sales.
Marketing prompt:
Compile a list of media distribution sites and outlets that
you will use for book promotion. This will save you both time and money. Don’t
forget to include blogs and other author contacts that have hosted or
interviewed you previously.
