Get With It! Marketing Your Books in 2012

This post is all about ideas on how you can become a better marketer when it comes to your books and products.  In addition, I'm throwing in some links for other "business/ finance" type books that I believe would be helpful to other writers.

What are your goals for 2012. 
Production is one of mine.  So far I'm off to a good start.  THE COUNTERFEIT was launched Dec. 13th and the first book in the DO IT LIKE A PRO: EASY BALLOON DECORATING FOR THE NON-PROFESSIONAL was launched 1-1-12! (It made two bestsellers lists on Amazon today!) I also have the 2nd book in the DO IT LIKE A PRO series DO IT LIKE A PRO: EASY BALLOON ARRANGEMENTS FOR THE NON-PROFESSIONAL ready to release. 

Please share in the comments section and I hope that you are enjoying the blog. Please share it with your friends.

Adding  LinkedIn to your Marketing Arsenal!

LinkedIn is not just a directory site. I was amazed to find that the place I signed up with a couple of years ago was, in reality, a great networking site. There are some amazing groups you can join and many ways you can expose yourself (In a good way) to new readers and new marketing allies.

Putting Your Best Face Forward: Using Facebook to Market Your Books and Build Your Readership

Facebook is like another world. My goal is to provide you today with the results of my own personal research into the subject. I hope that it will help you learn to maximize your reach by using this social-networking  platform.

Flash Mob for Book Promotion...Interesting Marketing Concept

Hi everyone. I wanted to share a really neat idea with all of you. If you're published it could be a great way to help get the word out about your book in an interesting way.

Check out https://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Amrita-Publishing/184725818262525?sk=app_129982580378550  Amrita Publishing... They describe their concept as a FLASH MOB for book promotion where other authors swoop in and help promote a featured author, then in return eventually, everyone gets a turn.  Neat concept! Their first Featured Artist is today and this all happens at 3 pm est.

Please Visit the Amrita Publishing FB page, and their Featured Artist page today around that time and help spread the love for Daniel L Carter. Coincidentally, Daniel was one of the first Authors who featured an interview with me on his blog when my book ISLAND OF SECRETS came out last November.  He definitely helps other authors and he deserves some extra attention.
