WHAT CAN OUR
MARKETING COACH DO FOR YOU?
It
is a widely-held misconception that New York publishers market
and promote every book they publish.
Not true!
FACT: Traditional publishers
have marketing budgets just like everyone else. They apply the
lion's share to the few books they hope will pay back huge dividends.
So if your name is J.K. Rowling, Stephen
King, or Dan Brown, you are sitting
pretty. Enjoy the ride.
Since 7 out of 10 mainstream books actually lose
money, the traditional publisher is quick to move on to the
next book. But they keep all your rights in an effort to recoup
their investment.
You are right; there must be a
better way...
With full service publishing companies like Outskirts
Press, it is easier and faster than ever to get your book
professionally published without waiting for a traditional publisher.
How easy is it?
-
Submit your finished manuscript to your personally-assigned
author representative
- Select from a menu of options (like copyediting and Library
of Congress numbers, for example)
- Set your retail price and determine your own royalty
-
In about 12 weeks your book is published and
available for purchase globally (from worldwide outlets like
Amazon.com).
Too bad publishing is so easy and marketing is so hard,
right?
Wrong!
The exclusive Marketing COACH at Outskirt
Press offers Creative Online Assistance, Coaching and Help via
email for books published under the Ruby,
Diamond,
and full-color Pearl
publishing packages.
Beginning when your book is published and continuing
for years after publication, the Marketing COACH
is a valuable and necessary component of any successful publishing
journey.
The free Marketing COACH offers you resources,
tips, and tactics that many other publishers charge you thousands
of dollars for. When you publish with Outskirts Press, the Marketing
COACH will provide:
BELIEVE
IT OR NOT...
1) Some publishers like to suggest that a guaranteed book review
with Kirkus Book Reviews is exclusive to their company.
Not true!
FACT: Any author can get a book review written
by Kirkus.
TOP SECRET:
What other publisher's DO NOT tell you is that the Kirkus
Discovery Reviews should be avoided. For $400 you get
approximately 50 words, most of which indicate the reviewer
hardly bothered to read the book and all of which indicate
a strong agenda against self-published authors. Our Marketing
COACH not only advises you what to do, but advises you
what NOT to do, also.

BELIEVE IT OR NOT (AGAIN)...
2) Some publishers like to suggest they offer the only way to
list your book with a best seller on Amazon.com.
Not true!
FACT: Any author can pair their book next to
a best-selling book on Amazon. The Marketing COACH tells you how.

With the Outskirts Press Marketing COACH emails you will discover...
- How to pitch your book to Oprah
- How to submit your book to Google's product database
- How to list your book alongside an Amazon bestseller
- The addresses of independent bookstores nationwide
- and much, much more!
There is a lot to do once your book is published. The Marketing
COACH shows you the way over a gradual span of time, in order
to give you time to complete each suggestion and tip at your own
pace and discretion. Do as much or as little as you desire. But
the help is there, it keeps coming for YEARS, and best of all...
IT'S ALL FREE...
Publish your book with our Ruby, Diamond, or Pearl publishing
packages and the Marketing COACH will send you emails automatically
after your book is published to start sharing these tips and suggestions.
| “I
am overwhelmed with how helpful you are with this information.
Keep it coming!”
- Dr. Faye, author of
The Desperate Daughters of Destiny |
