Authors, building a community around yourself in which to share your message is imperative to the publishing process! Whether you are a one book or twenty book author there are things you can learn about the marketing process. Few know going into publishing that the publisher is not responsible for marketing your platform. While we do quite a bit of marketing here at Cedar Fort due to our online store, most publishers do not advertise. The goal of a publisher is to get books into bookstores. We never accept a book unless we think we can get it sold into a few brick and mortar locations, but if you want your book to reach beyond the bookstore you need to do all you can to build an online platform so that people will see you or your work and eventually seek out your words!
You must register for this event by August 31st so we can get a headcount on food.
