    About this ebook

    You're a busy author -- you don't have time to market your books, because you're busy writing.

    Here's a cruel fact: unless you make time to market your books, you'll have minimal sales. Perhaps zero sales.

    Today, with hundreds of thousands of new books published each and every month, every author needs to market. However, marketing needn't take up much time, as long as you have a plan.

    What if you could market your books in just minutes a day?

    You can.

    In this book we look at:

    * Selling more copies of every book you write;

    * How to win loyal readers;

    * How to kick your sales into high gear;

    * How to use "free" in your marketing;

    * Social media marketing secrets...

    And much more.

    Start marketing today, and sell more copies of every book you write.

      One of my writing students was very busy, with just two clients. These clients had a lot of work for her, and she frequently worked weekends. Then one client closed up shop. She had no warning. Her latest invoice went unpaid, and the company ignored her calls.

      Her income was less than half of what it had been. She needed to market, to get more clients. Unfortunately, before that happened, her sole remaining client told her that they were cutting back. They would be in touch when they needed her again.

      Sadly, this kind of situation is all too common. Writers give control of their businesses to clients. Then the clients' problems become the writer's problems.

      Another writer was happily self-publishing books. He had one bestseller, which supported his self-publishing business. He was selling a lot of books, so marketing — especially paying for advertising — seemed pointless. He was too busy writing to spend time learning to market. His
