Book Marketing.  You’ve written your book, rewritten it, binned it, then tried again. Once you’re happy with your manuscript and have got to the point of getting it printed, you want to make sure that people will read it. So how does you audience get to hear about it? That’s where we can help.

Tailored to you. We don’t have a one size fits all approach to marketing. We like to know what your expectations are and then work out how we can best help you. We’ve created some different book marketing packages for you to choose from, but with a little flexibility built in to make sure it suits you and your book. The main aim is discoverability and to tell people your book is there.

Marketing support can include the following:

• Flyers  A5 single-sided flyers giving a brief overview of the book, an image of the book cover plus details on how to buy a copy. Perfect for handing out at appropriate occasions or leaving in your local library.


• Postcards
 A6 postcards with the book cover on the front plus details of how to buy a copy, with the standard postcard reverse so that you can pop it in the post to your target audience.


• Bookmarks
 A handy piece of marketing for people to pick up and keep, then be reminded of your book every time they sit down to read.

• Pull-up banner
 A large banner that can be easily stored and transported to your book launch, signings and other promotional events.

• Posters
 Large posters to put up at events or on public noticeboards to promote your book.

• Business cards  When you’re out and about speaking to people, hand them a business card as a reminder.

• Information sheet
 When contacting potential distributors, it is useful to have an information sheet that outlines all the key information about you and your book. 
• Press release If you want local and national media to know about your book, you will need to send them a press release. We can write an engaging release for you and advise you where to send it, or even send it for you.
• Overrun book covers
 get people interested in your book before it’s printed and bound. We can provide you with 20 book covers, a useful promotional tool.

• Review copies
 Send a copy of your book to a magazine or newspaper for review. You can then use a quote from the reviewer in other marketing material. 
• Social media support  Don’t know your posts from your shares? Let us help you with an author-specific Facebook page and X (formally Twitter) account, plus a Gmail email address (used to register the above accounts). We’ll set them up and show you how best to use them. 
• Author profile on Goodreads.com.
We will set you up with an author profile on this popular website where readers discuss their favourite books and share recommendations. 
• Dedicated website  A website is a key selling tool for an author. We can design, host and maintain your website, plus write the key content. 
• Book trailer video or author interview.  A short video content is an excellent way to promote your book. It can be uploaded onto your website or shared on social media and can give a great overview of you and your work.
