The Value of Growing an #Author Brand
Growing an author brand takes dedication, time and effort. Repetition over this same period of time is mission critical. We’ve learned over our 28 year history of helping authors that the value of building an author brand doesn’t only happen through social media. Social media does bring value but nothing can replace meeting someone in person who buys your book in a bookstore.
Any first time author should experience this for several reasons:
It helps you tell the story of your journey in writing the book
It forces you as an author to know how to tell your story
It exposes you to the book buyers personally, firsthand!
It exposes you to the process of how books get selected, bought and placed in stores. Sometimes learning this first hand is far more important than just talking about it.
V. Ronnie Laughlin is our first International author from Dubai. She was referred to us by a colleague and things worked out for us to help publish her first book. Ronnie’s story is quite amazing and An Atypical Journey is worth your time to read. We congratulate Ronnie on her accomplishments and her being an author who landed a local bookstore signing!
