Maximize Your Book Results with a Custom Marketing Blueprint
Join us in Charleston for a complimentary exclusive event for authors nearing publication. Now that your publication date is close at hand, our goal is to help you define (and refine!) what success looks like for you and the reach of your book and your message—and then inform you of what tools and services are available so you can work toward that goal.
We care about the satisfaction of our authors. With combined decades of experience, our leaders have the insights you need to maximize the value of your book. Over the course of the workshop, you’ll hear directly from our chief executive officer, chief marketing officer, chief product officer, and promotions and distribution experts on best practices for expanding your distribution, gaining positive buzz, and attracting more readers through publicity and reader reviews.
