Book PR and Promoting Authors from Smith Publicity's blog

When you're an author, promoting yourself can be helpful in your book marketing campaigns. Giving people in general and especially your target readers more reason to feel interested is beneficial. If you still need to get into self-promotion, it's crucial to grasp how much it can affect your book's sales and success. Personal branding, which celebrities do well, helps people associate things with you, such as thoughts, feelings, and messages. When they do, there's an immediately favorable impression. For example, someone who writes a cookbook may go on to host a TV cooking show and then release a signature line of cookware. Their personal brand carried through in all areas, and their fans understood.

It's also true that authors are necessary for book PR because books can't talk – so you are the one being interviewed, making appearances at events, etc. You begin branding yourself as you increase your visibility and become more public. Another example is fashion designers who become known for their clothing – yet fans also relate to them, and their names can adorn many products as part of a "lifestyle brand." Given the immense popularity of some books, authors have significant opportunities to promote themselves and earn income in multiple channels. Consider a novelist who lands a film deal.

Some people today write books for reasons other than selling copies or downloads; chief among them is promoting a business. In their cases, personal or author branding has a direct and immediate benefit. Once people see you in the media and online promoting your book, they may become customers, clients, or patients. It's why many people with expertise in a specific area become nonfiction authors and write books on topics related to their business or work. Even for people in corporate life, becoming a published author is a career boost. It demonstrates your expertise in your field.

One of the things to consider is you're weighing writing a book and what you hope to get out of it. Your goals have much to do with what you write about, how you promote your work, and even how you publish it. If you do write a book, it must become available to your target readers, even if they are potential customers. Your marketing campaign will zero in on those you hope to reach, whether to convince them to buy books or learn more about you. If you've tried other PR campaigns, you may be pleasantly surprised by the doors a book will open when it is topical or newsworthy.
