Want to know some other book marketing mistakes?
Book Marketing Mistake #1:
Expecting to be your own publicist. It’s just a lot of hard work and book marketing for yourself takes a lot of time. And it’s not easy these days to get in the door of media outlets without being a professional publicity firm. So what can you do for yourself? Authors can schedule workshops, lectures, book signings and hold book parties and events. They can post on social media and link to their book as well.
Book Marketing Mistake #2:
Not knowing why anyone would want to buy your book. That’s an important mistake because for buyers to purchase your book, they have to know what is in it for them. If you think readers should buy your book just because it exists then you are headed for a dead end. It’s just not happening out there in the real world. Book sales are not taking place by magic. They are taking place by targeting the right buyers at the right time with a high quality product that helps in a way they want to be helped.
