It’s book launch week, day 5. Thanks for all your support for my and Julie Murkette’s new book, Get Your Book Seen and Sold. I’ll be reporting on the book promotion that we did - what worked and what didn’t. How is that for a teaser? In the meantime, I have some treats for you.

I have been feverishly writing articles for other websites on my favorite topic - you guessed it - book marketing! Writing these articles with a byline that includes the title of the book is a way to promote it - one great book marketing idea for you. But in a couple of the articles, I write very detailed book marketing ideas, step by step, that I think you may find helpful.

I’m going to summarize articles I write, over a few Substack posts in coming weeks, with the takeaway for you to help you promote your book along with a link to the article if you care to dig a bit deeper.

All of the information that I promote in the articles can be found in Get Your Book Seen and Sold with Julie Murkette that released this week. We would be honored if you would continue to support us with a purchase of the book or tell a friend about it. If you love the book, leave a quickie review on Amazon and/or Barnes and Noble! Thanks in advance.

The article is linked below is super-detailed. I can't seem to write briefly on the subject of book marketing, LOL. Enjoy and let me know what you find helpful in your quest to get your book seen and sold.
