Discover the secrets that most authors overlook.
You can’t expect to sell books without knowing the strategies that work—for you.
News flash: This holds true for both traditionally-published and self-published authors.
➜ Traditional publishers don’t do a whole lot when it comes to marketing your book. They’re just not as invested as you need them to be.
And they’re not exactly known for their listening skills. (Translation: they ignore many author suggestions.)
➜ Self-published (indie) authors often lack the savvy (and a solid plan) to make their book stand out amid a crowded marketplace.
And they often flounder as a result.
You don’t have to rely on your publisher or spend money you don’t have to hire a publicist to—
Get your book out into the world the way you envision it.
A non-exhaustive list of common author nightmares:
You worry your book will get lost in the crowd, and never get found.
You see so much information on book marketing—but you don’t know where to start.
You don’t know how to market your book in a way that feels authentic to you.
It doesn’t have to be that way.
You can market your book—in a way that fits your personality, your budget, your audience, and your goals.
A personalized book marketing plan
- Opens doors to opportunities.
- Helps you make the most of the traditional publishing process. Most authors don’t take the initiative to create their own book promotion plan—which does their book a disservice.
- Allows you to stand out as a self-published author and recoup some of your investment.
- Ensures that you don’t become a statistic. Most self-published authors only sell tens of copies of their books, which is far short of what’s possible.
The #1 priority—of first-time and experienced authors alike—is to sell books.
When you sell more books, you . . .
➜ reach more readers and change more lives
➜ build a name for yourself
➜ create opportunities to write more books
➜ add to your “rainy day” fund
➜ get rewarded for your creativity
A strategic book marketing plan leads to book sales.
I’ve seen this happen time and time again.
Including with my own books (which were traditionally published).
This seems like a good time to introduce myself.
Hi—I’m Daniel Tortora.
Former history professor, current author coach and editor—on a mission to help you master your book marketing plan.
Too many authors struggle to promote their book.
And I’ve felt what it’s like to squander time and money—and trust the wrong people.
I was able to use what you’ll learn in this course to right the ship and chart a new course for my books.
The result?
Thousands of books sold. Dozens of speaking opportunities. A book club selection and a major award. Publishers and readers left impressed and shocked by the results of my book marketing plan.
I understand how competitive the book publishing industry is, and which strategies to employ to reach your readers.
I’ve helped hundreds of people improve their writing, overcome their biggest obstacle (themselves), and unlock the secrets to book promotion.
Would you like to reach readers, increase sales, and share your book with the world—the way you envision it?
