Online Book Launch: Can You Become a Best-Selling Author Over the Internet?
In recent years, countless authors have used the power of the Internet to market and sell their books. The question that needs to be answered is, “Are online book launches a viable way to market your book?”
Absolutely! However, you will find criticism from some who believe that this is not a valid way to sell books, while others feel that it is an incredibly effective way to promote, sell, and profit from your book.
With the release of my book The Law of Achievement, we sold over $22,000 in a 24 hour period. To say that this is not a viable way to market and sell books is beyond my comprehension.
Each author needs to determine for himself if this is a good option.
The fact is, most books never make money, and countless authors don’t take responsibility for marketing their books. They write the book and hope that it will somehow sell itself. Or they assume the publisher will do all the marketing. Although some publishers will help with marketing, others will not.
Regardless of who publishes your book, the more you know about marketing, online strategies, becoming visible and profitable, the better for you.
Establish a success timeline
Giving yourself enough time to handle all the details of the campaign is essential to its success. It’s better to take all the time you need to get things right instead of rushing through it and experiencing less than stellar results.
