Here’s a great promotion tip for authors.
My friend Dan Janal is willing to promote your books, for free, at his new site called Cool Book of the Day. You need to do three things:
1. Answer the questions below by email.
2. Post a link to the Cool Book of the Day site after the interview is published.
3. The book must be available at Amazon. If your book isn’t printed yet, hold on to the instructions and send it to him after it’s published.
Interested?
Here are the questions:
-
What’s the title of the book?
-
Who is the intended audience?
-
What is the book about (3-4 sentences)?
-
Why are you the best person to write this book?
-
How is this book different from other books on this topic?
-
Is there anything else we should know about this book?
Responses should be between 500 and 1,000 words.
Your interview will be listed in the order he receives responses, one per day.
Email the completed interview to Dan.
I was an early recipient of Dan Cool Book of The Day Award — certainly something all authors should do.
Now can I call myself an award winning author (I don’t, but . . .) or maybe I should have written a press release?
Thanks, Joan. As always, you have great resources and tips. I’m filing this away for when my client’s real estate book is published in a few months.
Absolutely, this is worth a press release, where it can live online forever and be found by the search engines. See my free tutorial “89 ways to write powerful press releases” at http://www.PublicityHound.com/pressreleasetips/art.htm
After checking out this ‘cool’ site, I learned there was alot of value for authors who are trying to form connections and get exposure.
Thank you so much for this great tip. The Getaway Girl will certainly submit information to Dan. I have been a fan of your for years now.
Thanks Joan, for your great tips. I will be sending off the info for Dan’s Cool Book of the Day. Also ordering your press release tips. Heard you on a teleseminar recently. Is it too late to get in your mentor program?
Just mentioned you on my blog and added a link back. Thanks for the great tips!
No, it isn’t too late to get into the Mentor Program. You can join any time.
