Increase Your Book’s Promotion Power by 650 Percent

I was referred to a webinar featuring my friend Tara Hunt (you might know her at @MissRogue on Twitter).

When I got to the link, I was delighted to see the attached video along with others and the promise of more to come.

Steve Cunningham of Polar Unlimited has a program call ReadItFor.Me featuring great books summarized in less than 10 minutes. Every book I saw was worthy of recommendation. I’d suggest you watch the videos and buy all of them.

Watch this video on The Whuffie Factor by Tara Hunt, order a copy and use these principles in your own business, book promotion and publicity campaigns.

Register for the webinar and/or listen to all the recordings on Steve’s site.

Idea for Authors Marketing Any Book

You can contact reviewers like Steve that may be appropriate for your book. Once you get a video like this, post it on your blog.. and link wherever your can to the reviewers site. There is so much more credibilty in a review by a 3rd party.

And I’m sure you will agree.. this is much more appealing than a text only review in a magazine!

While you are waiting for these types of reviews.. or even before your book is published.. you can make you own videos about the book and post them for all to see and comment on.

Now here’s the social media marketing advanced book marketing technique… Don’t make the video about your own book

You read right. No matter how wonderful your book is, no matter how much of a must read it will become, no matter how essential your message it to the world.. you will get much more WHUFFIE (you watched the video and ordered The Whuffie Factor so you know this, right?) when you turn the spotlight on other people.

By now you know other authors. Imagine how they will feel about a video like this (or an interview, review or guest post on your blog).

The more you shine your light on others, the brighter it becomes.

How Did You Get That Book Out So Fast?

Do That Cover - Small.jpgMy friend Gail Kingsbury called to tell me about her new book and the fabulous stories inside.

I said “I didn’t even know you were working on a book.. How did you fit that in your schedule?”

The answer.. a collaborative effort. Working together, the co-authors were able to high quality material together, join together for to promote it and have a best seller in record time.

We’ve used this process over and over to create books. What’s different this time is the fabulous concept of successful people sharing their story of “How Did You Do That”

They want to get fast results in launching the book and have over delivered fo anyone that grabs the book today.

A great model for authors.

Some inspiration for those writing a book and/or a great gift idea.

I just ordered my copy. I suggest you pick up one or more today.

Thanks For Your Tremendous Support..

I have a delightful business model. I get to help authors with good books to share reach new markets and readers with their message.

We have some fun, make a living and live for notes like this..

Thank-you for your tremendous support in helping in promoting Dan’s campaign last Tuesday. We reached the Amazon Best Seller list in RiskBuster’s three categories – hitting the #1 spot in Home Based.

Thanks to all our fantastic partners we had terrific campaign results, without the commitment of partners like yourself this would not have been possible!

We look forward to partnering with you again the near future and reciprocating in promotion of your product and service

Joining a book promotion is easy. Most allow just about any author to participate. The only requirement is a basic understanding of the Law of Reciprocity.. that is you will start a powerful attracting force when you GIVE without expectation of immediate return. The more you give, the more you get.

Vegas Author Bio of Warren Whitlock

I was digging through the archives and found this video.

My friend, the late Jim Wilson of VegasBuzzz asked me to lunch one day and next thing I knew he had a camera in my face asking me what I do.

Wish I had some more video of Jim.. but this is a reminder of what he taught me. It only takes a few minutes to create content and share online.

We’ve been researching local search, and the ranking possible from videos like this one here.

Granted, the quality is much.. and on this book marketing blog, it’s a bit over over promotion. Jim grabbed 2 books I’d given him over the years to feature (both best sellers). However, I liked how he put a little music, a couple of slides and made a one take video in a restaurant somewhat interesting.

When Jim posted this on his BIO site, my search engine postion shot up and I got a little rise in traffic. Over time, as we’ve added videos from classes, interviews with best selling authors and book promotion examples, we’ve see a steady increase in traffic from the search engines. Not from one post.. but cumulative from all of them put together.
