Welcome to Write What Inspires You edition of Marketing Tips and Inspiration. Last week I reached out through my blogpost and asked viewers to share their marketing tips.
L. Diane Wolfe of Dancing Lemur Press LLC shared a fabulous tip that I want to bring to the forefront of author's in every genre.
"Marketing 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."
Thank you Diane!
Here is today's partial snippet of my latest book listed in our local library system...
Don't forget to add libraries to your marketing toolbox.
Good luck!
