Marketing Plans for Self-published Books

I had a few reasons for writing these ebooks. First, I have a lot of experience in writing and publishing. I’m not an expert, but I do have experience. I belong to a few writers groups and I’ve seen first-hand the confusion and erroneous information that exists about self-publishing. The same situation exists when it comes to marketing the self-publishing book, but to a much greater degree. Hence, there is a need for series of books on these topics. I’ve attempted to provide an orderly, easy to follow process that smooths the path to a successful book launch and a profitable marketing plan. A second reason for writing these books comes from my experiences in running into scam artists who try to rip off inexperienced authors. I’ve lost money on a few occasions. Hence, I have taken on a challenge to protect writers from the Internet thieves who prey on new authors. My method of protecting these writers is to arm them with facts. I’ve learned that the more authors know about the dual processes of self-publishing and self-marketing, the less likely they are to fall for the ingenious schemes of the scam artists.

Hank Quense’s Marketing Plans for Self-Publish Books is a great book for anyone planning on self-publishing a book. As a beginning indie writer, I found the information to be incredibly valuable. Quense not only takes you step-by-step through the marketing process, he also gives good advice about marketing so that you are not needlessly throwing your money away. This book also makes you think about your book as a product. Being a writer, I never really considered that what I’m doing is creating a product to sell and developing a brand. Building a strategy is paramount to being a successful writer. Marketing Plans for Self-Publish Books answered many of the questions I had about marketing my work.
