I am in the process of figuring out how to up my game, so to speak, in the marketing realm. There always seems to be something new to explore and figuring out what works best for me can be a challenge. I always enjoy reading your posts.
ReplyDeleteHi Karin, yes indeed so many great marketing ideas available. May I suggest you focus on one and go with it. Instead of doing many at once and getting overwhelmed. Believe me I've learned the hard way. Thanks for visiting! Best, Donna
DeleteMarketing to libraries is one of our big focuses. We send a sell sheet and an author sheet to them, both enticing them to buy copies and have the author in for a visit. Libraries don't return books and have to replace ones that wear out, which I love.
ReplyDeleteDiane, how fabulous! Thanks for this wonderful tip. I'm going to share on next week's Marketing Tips Monday and will give you credit. Thanks so kindly! Best, Donna
