Promote Your Book with Kylie Dunn (online)

All authors need to learn how to promote their book in new and exciting ways, but self-publishers also need to market their book to bookshops and other potential outlets. This is generally an area that authors struggle with, because self-promotion doesn’t come naturally to most people.

This course will discuss the post-production steps of launching your book into the world. It includes:

 Finalising your platform – the steps that you should take to make sure you are set up to release your book to the world.

 Getting into bookshops – getting into bookshops, professional distributors and how to manage those relationships.

 Your book launch – organising a physical launch, online launches and tips for both.

 Marketing ideas and options – advice and tips on promoting your book online and offline.
