Common Book Promotion Mistakes - podcast
Common author book promotion mistakes include authors focusing too much on book reviews. Reviews are not the only way to get publicity. Authors should think past reviews to other action items that will keep their books in front of readers. Look into other promotional opportunities suited for the book's specific genre. Authors also tend to use a tactic because it's popular with their author friends. Publicity tactics should be specific to your book. Third, authors tend to be self-promotional on social media. Authors need to take the time to learn how to promote their material through media outlets like Twitter.

I am just starting to look at ways to promote my book< The Storyteller>. I have not found any set of ways to promo my book at anytime of the year. It seems as though Book Promotion work a specific way at any particular season. I would like to have someone to help me in searching the BEST WAYS to introduce my book to those I am trying to reach in a way that will be on the mark. Time is my factor and money my limit.
