How We Coach

One portion of our business is coaching. We attempt to help authors figure out how to utilize their skill set to increase book sales. In an effort to do that, we often focus on the use of articles, nonreciprocal links, link exchanges, regular guest appearances in person and online and strategic giveaways. All of these things work together to build your name, branding you in your chosen field, and to build your book's visibility.

It requires a lot of consistency and networking, but you can make your books work for you with the right skill set. Feel free to ask questions in the comment section. A drawing will be held of participants for a free blog tour package with 10 stops. We look forward to your feedback.

The Awesome Article

Many authors stop at writing a book or two, but an often overlooked and powerful marketing tool is articles. These articles, if well-written, organized and submitted in a timely fashion, can lead to all types of other free publicity for you and your book(s). This works especially well for nonfiction authors, but can work for any author. The trick is finding a way to write in the area of your book's target audience, though there has been more than one cross-over success.

When you begin seeking out venues for your articles, don't overlook the places such as Helium or social network notes and bulletins. Your own blog and the blog of friends are great options, as well as ezine publishers and webmasters. Look at what other successful authors are doing. It may seem tedious in the beginning but the rewards are endless.
