If writing and publishing a book is like giving birth to a child, then book marketing is like rearing it.

Never use the phrase: 'buy my book' - ever.

Don't give up before you get off your feet. Put the time in to learn what you can, build relationships, and develop quality content.

Book marketing is a skill: it takes knowledge, effort, and persistence to really be successful.

One of the best book marketing tips I can give you is simply building relationships - well that and publishing more books.

As much as we don't want to hear it, book marketing is a huge part of becoming a successful author.

It's never too early to start marketing your book.
