Marketing Books for Your Business

Marketing Tina says:

Do you have an idea for a great book?

You’re not alone. It seems that everyone I talk to has one, or thinks they do, anyway. However, my experience in book marketing tells me that what you think is fantastic may not be what people want to spend their money on. I hope this site helps you figure out whether your idea is worth pursuing and how to go about writing and marketing your book.

So here’s my advice:

First of all, are we talking fiction or non-fiction? If you want to write fiction, good luck! I love discovering a new author, but I wouldn’t publish it for a million dollars – it’s such a tough marketplace. But if you insist, I can suggest several helpful books on the subject.

Now that the creative writers are gone, my advice to you is:

Self publish or perish.

Forget about getting a publishing house to take your book. You know your market better, can promote it more effectively and will net much more to your bottom line, if you self-publish. Here are some books that will help you on the way:
