GETTING THE WORD OUT ABOUT YOUR BOOK

Marketing is the key to successful sales.  If people don’t know about your book, they can’t buy it.  You may have written an extraordinarily compelling, insightful, and exciting book, but you’ll still need to promote it to your identified target markets.

Each author receives a 30-minute marketing consultation with our Publicity Manager to determine the best way to promote his or her title.  Inkwater Press offers a wide variety of marketing services and promotional materials, including the creation of custom websites, professional press kits and a marketing plan to send out books for reviews, contests, and more.

We encourage our authors to market their book locally by setting up author readings/signings at bookstores and libraries, approaching local media avenues, and building their own social network.  Building a personal website for the book, as well as utilizing Facebook, Twitter and other social media tools, helps to maximize a book’s exposure within the author’s own community.

Authors with marketing platforms through their business or college have a great opportunity to not only gain exposure for their book but also maximize their profit by selling author copies directly to those most interested or in need of the author’s book.

Feel free to contact us and to discuss ways we can help you with publicity, as well as activities you may want to undertake on your own.
