Recommended Marketing Steps

• If you do not already have one, we recommend you create a personal website, obtaining your name for the URL (eg. johnsmith.com). You can then easily post information about yourself and your work, along with providing a link to your book’s listing on Nova’s website. You can also upload your work to have it appear in Google Scholar following the instructions in our email .• Create an Author’s Page on Amazon by creating an account at Amazon’s Author Central: https://authorcentral.amazon.com/. This will not only allow you to post specific information about yourself and all your books, but will also provide you with sales information from Amazon’s website (keep in mind it is not ALL sales), allow you to post reviews, etc.

• Create an Author page on Goodreads so other people can easily find your book. (http://www.goodreads.com).

• Create a personal profile on ResearchGate and Academia.

Personal Social Media – If you have any social media accounts, you can post information about your book on there, reaching out to all your followers/friends. You can post a link to your book’s listing on our website.

Conferences – If you are attending or know of any upcoming conferences where your book may be of interest, please let me know and I can contact conference organizers for possible marketing opportunities. If you are attending, you may want to distribute the leaflets yourself.

Bookstores/Libraries – If you know of any bookstores or libraries that may be interested in carrying your book, and if you have not already done so, please send me their contact information (name and email address) and I will send them information about your book. They can receive a discount.

Reviews – If you know of anyone who might be interested in reviewing your book, and you have not already done so, please feel free to send me their contact information (name and email address) and we will consider sending them a copy of your book to review.
