Join a Discussion for Beginners About How to Book Promote and Sell Your Books

July 13, 2016 by Lily O'Brien

Book Promotion and $ales for Absolute Beginners

BooksClear your calendar. It’s going down! Book Promotion and Sales for Absolute Beginners kicks off on August 3rd, and you’re invited to take part in the conversation. Readers’ Books (130 East Napa Street) is our meeting spot for a night of fun and excitement. Come one, come all, bring a guest, and hang loose. This is going to be epic!

In the world of independent authors and publishers, you are responsible for writing and promoting your book. Without promotion, your book will go unread and unsold.

Where do you start? How much will it cost? What works? What pitfalls should you avoid? You’ve got questions, come get answers!

It’s time to get excited about promoting and selling your book! Whether this is your first book, your first self-published book, or even if you have already published with one of the big publishing houses, you are invited to come and join the discussion about today’s world of book promotion and sales.

The Book Marketing Mentors, Judy Baker and Judy Reyes, will lead the discussion, show you (and teach you) how to be excellent book marketers. Plus, there’s free food and no charge to attend.
