- farrah abraham:Great post. I'm dealing with a few of these issues as well..
- Philippa Wheatley:The best marketing strategy I ever used was to get the kids from my old high school involved. Since our book for teens, and we hadn't long left school, we knew exactly where out target market lay. Over the Easter period we set aside a time for holding a local Creative Writing Workshop for local teens, contacting the High School's and local Middle school's English department. We were well remembered, and after telling them our idea, they quickly put out an advertisement in the school newsletters. come the day we were innundated with school children! Everyone had a great time, and we also sold copies of our book-work plus fun gets done!
- Teri Von Ende:I first published my only book, "Decoding The Special Needs Child, with a Comprehensive Resource Guide for Parents", through Publish America in 2007. It isn't a big house or name and all promotions and selling methods are left up to the author. I did manage to get a radio interview about the book, (through a connection by my brother) and set up a book discussion with an psychologist at her office (who also had an Autistic son) and she called in all her interested clients to come and participate, so that went well. I also brought a lecture to my then daughter's special needs high school, discussing the topic of Conservatorship. That brought in a crowd and was able to sell more books. But I am stuck at this point and don't really know where to go from here. I am also recovering from my 2nd bout with breast cancer, so my energy is quite diminished. Could use any advise or help.Thanks.
