Step 7 – Marketing
Self-publishers market their own books and e-books, and the following are some methods used very successfully by several of our authors at:
- Tertiary institutions, schools and pre-primary schools where the need already exists.
- Orphanages or similar institutions with large data bases.
- Agreements with bookshops, Amazon and Kobo.
- Marketing via email, Facebook and other communication channels where the target market has already been identified.
- Seminars and workshops.
- Author’s own website.
