Self publishing, Marketing and Warmth 9.27.18

Good morning!

๐ŸSelf publishing tip

Amazon paperback

This one got me! (Ouch)!

Do research on the dimensions of your book!

I chose one size up from a

6 x 9, then added margins.

My thought process-

My FINAL WOULD be 6 x 9!

Unfortunately, this decision, kicked my book out of some sales areas. Bookstores etc!

OOPS!

If I had chosen 6 x 9, then added my margins it would have been a “standard” size!

PLEASE! Do your research on what is considered “standard”!

IF you don’t pre- research:

Amazon will let you know the impact of your size selection!

Unfortunately, it’s not until a later step, when you have put days, weeks, months into your beloved masterpiece! ๐Ÿคจ

* Always learning! ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

๐ŸMarketing tip:

What do you think of this?

I started an Instagram set of photos with a fun set of posts like the above and started getting followers.

It has added at least one sale per day!

DO NOT forget to let your followers know where it can be purchased!

Not bad for a country bumpkin, eh? ๐Ÿ˜‰

๐Ÿ DO NOT GIVE UP!

Sooo, DO YOU KNOW WHAT YOUR COFFEE TABLE is Missing?

As one review states:

PURCHASE YOURS HERE

Isn’t he a cutie?

Kind Regards

And wishing you

Much success – K

  1. Hi Kallie,

    I just recieved my copy a few days ago but also just had back surgery, so a little slow on the draw.

    It is a lovely book, with great pictures, and prose and lots of sharing of local knowledge and customs. I canโ€™t wait to spend time reading it and looking at the gorgeous pictures.

    It is such a treat to have while I am recovering. I will definitely complete a review in the next few days.

    Great work, publishing your own book!!
