044 Coach Radio – Promote a Book, Host Your Own Online Show
Send me your feedback or questions or leave me a voice mail: (919) 355-8275.
In today’s show I talk about promoting a book and hosting your own online show.
Brent Green called in to ask about how I promoted Become a Coach.
Book Promotion Ideas
- Create a URL specifically for your book
- Write about things that relate to your book on your blog
- Market through your newsletter
- Talk about where people can buy your book
- Answer questions in forums about topics relating to your book
- Talk to people online (twitter, facebook, linkedin) – they all lead back to your website
- Create a group or page on facebook around your book’s topic
- Solicit reviews for your website and Amazon
- Get it in the hands of sneezers – blog tour, podcasters, radio and TV people, etc.
- Send it to people who can be helped by the book’s content – blow them away by doing it free; they’ll talk
- Network in-person and talk about it
- Add a map of readers to your website
