About this Talk
The basics of building an author platform, especially for new and emerging authors, and for those who say "just tell me what to do first!"
It's hard enough writing the book. Then everyone tells you "now, you need to get your name out there and promote yourself." A daunting proposition for many authors.
This presentation will lay out the basic steps an author needs to take in order to get their name in front of readers and to build and sustain a presence in the marketplace. From your website and newsletter, to dipping your toes into online promotions and social media ads, to book trailers and video promos, the presentation will also outline ways to increase interest in your books with the goal of establishing a fan base and increased sales.
For people who have not yet published, this presentation will help you get started on your platform so that by the time you publish, you have something to build on.
