It also features: authors' individual ranking of marketing methods;
new, effective methods you've never heard of; a top ranking of all

Best Bang will reveal ideas you hadn't considered, such
as: a free, trendy feature on the Internet that will get your books
exposure; and which national magazine ad increased an author's sales
tenfold!
I've spent a year marketing my book, My Life at AOL,
and want to share with other authors what I learned about marketing.
Here's what I wish I had done differently, and first. Don't waste
your precious time and money on methods that don't get results!
Testimonials:
I read your e-book, Best Bang for Your Book. I should
say, ?devoured it.? It's awesome. I loved it, every word. Talk about
?right message to the right audience at the right time? -- this is
exactly the kind of input I've been seeking for the past 2 months
as I've begun the process of marketing my own book.
+ You cover so many different marketing methods. I really like the
comprehensiveness of the book. The book is packed with useful tips
that are a great resource for both the experienced writer as well
as the novice.
+ I loved hearing about your experiences, especially in the ?early
days? when you tried to get the book published the ?traditional? way.
I learned a tremendous amount about book publishing just by hearing
what you went through.
+ The numerous experiences of other writers: This is the book's greatest
strength -- the way you've gathered together so many experiences of
so many writers and blended them together into an easy-to-read yet
delightful editorial tapestry.
+ I read your entire book in one sitting! Can't remember the last time
I did that. Please put me on your mailing list: let me know when you
write another book; I'll buy it sight unseen!?
