Things You Need to Do After You Write Your Book
Or… what do you need to do even before you start writing a book?
One of the most frequent mistakes beginner authors make is that they wait until their files are uploaded on Amazon as a book to think about their book promotion strategy. Although they do have a professional cover, decent content (at least), and a catchy book description, the sales curve is as straight and heartbreaking as the line on heart-rate monitor when the patient loses the battle for life. So they have this AHA moment where they go, I need to do something about it!
Yes, you do! Unless you have a decent inheritance on your hands to invest in advertising or have Oprah on your dial speed as your bestie, book promotion takes time.
Building an audience takes time.
Building anticipation and excitement takes time.
Building an email list takes time.
