#BookPublishingisWork--but Worth It

We receive many emails from clients who are financially strained, so they cannot afford to go the traditional publishing route. Fortunately, we now have the internet.

Below is my response to an author who is feeling that she should abandon her book project. That's a shame because she will never know how successful she can be if she doesn't try.

Here it is:

"I understand that you are feeling bewildered but we are not in the business of publishing so we cannot purchase your book rights from you.

However, you can publish with very little money if you publish an ebook and market the book online. Other authors have sold millions of copies that way as long as the book has been professionally edited.

 You then market to people who enjoy your book's genre. Search the internet for books like yours and find out where they are being sold. List your book with ebook sales sites. Find blogs and other websites that target your audience. Offer to do joint ventures with them. Start your own blog. Have people sign up for a newsletter on your website.

There are many ways in which to market an ebook and there is no time limit. Get as much publicity as you can by finding online book reviewers, etc.

You can be successful and remember that no one else cares as much about your book as you do."
