Marketing Your Books
A collection of profit-making ideas for authors and publishers

Ross, Marilyn and Tom

Abstract:  An awful lot of non-profit organizations are finding themselves in the publishing business these days. Unfortunately, their publishing endeavours are often a money-losing or at best break-even proposition. This book suggests ideas for how small publishers and self-publishers can increase sales. Some of the topics include Creating Events, Capturing the Attention of Reviewers, Speaking as a Vehicle to Merchandise Books, and Newspaper Op-Ed Pages. Marketing Your Books contains some good ideas, but is a bit on the sketchy side in explaining how to take advantage of them.
