Blogging and Marketing
1:21 PM, Feb. 15, 2006
Laurie,
I don't know if you remember talking to me last year about marketing ideas. You were telling me that you spend a lot of time on marketing and had some ideas. ..... You suggested I email you and ask for some advice. I would appreciate any you could give me. D.M.
Do you have a blog? Blogging, in my opinion, is the number one way to market. The internet has drastically changed the way we market self-published books now, and blogging has made even more changes. Traditional publishing still goes about it in their dinosaur way -- getting reviews in the print media which need about a 3 month lead time, whereas with the internet, you can generate talk about your book now,
this minute.

It's really true. And look at some of the largest corporations - they're doing it too, and for good reason. It works. The Internet is still in its infancy, and blogging is barely even born. Get on the ground floor now, and ride the wave. Make history. Great post, Laurie; I always get a lot out of your entries.
