Want to rapidly expand your business? Writing and strategically promoting a book can be a powerful catalyst. Selling your book effectively requires specific promotion techniques. Here’s a breakdown of proven strategies used by successful entrepreneurs.
First, position your book as a lead generation tool. Increased leads fuel business expansion. Capture customer names and contact information when they purchase your book. This initiates a relationship and builds a valuable mailing list. Offer free incentives, such as bonus reports or exclusive content, to encourage further engagement and purchases.
Second, prominently feature your website and contact information within your book. Invite readers to visit your site for valuable resources. Use a compelling opt-in page to collect their information. Encourage readers to share your book and website with their network.
Third, collaborate with promoters to build mailing lists and boost your sales ranking on Amazon. This creates a win-win situation, providing you with new leads and benefiting your partners. These new leads can translate into profitable opportunities down the line.
Fourth, stay informed about new features and opportunities on platforms like Amazon. Adapt to new Amazon features that can help you market your book. Seek opportunities for interviews as an author and leverage recordings to offer bonus CDs to book buyers.
Finally, create a comprehensive media kit. It should include your biography, a picture of your book (or the book itself), and your contact details.
