BUILD BOOK BUZZ

Do-It-Yourself Book Marketing
Tips, Tools and Tactics

(...And Much More!!!)

No doubt, you've heard the expression...

If you want anything done right, do it yourself!

Well, for writers who want to sell more of their fiction (or non-fiction) books, there's no better advice. Especially when you've got Sandra Beckwith to show you how!

Getting word out about your books is critical to making more sales.

Don't let the public relations experts fool you. You CAN do it yourself.

These agencies are paid to make your book available to buy; it's still wholly up to you to "bang the drum" to get your books noticed and talked about; to make sure that the people most likely to be interested become buyers and rabid fans.

You've heard the horror stories about naïve new authors shelling out thousands to "vanity press" publishers; dreaming of changing their lives but ending up with a garage full of books that don't sell.

Well, here's the hard, cold truth: YOU'VE got to make sure your books are seen by the people most likely to buy them! YOU'RE responsible for taking advantage of media opportunities to keep your book titles front-and-center; all year long.

The only way to do that is to become your own publicist and that brings us to the featured part of this share...

BUILD BOOK BUZZ

Publicity Forms and Templates

This is a 70+ page downloadable workbook in Microsoft Word (.doc) format. The reason Sandra Beckwith made it a Word document is so that you can easily customize the forms and templates you need to promote your books.

This workbook is brimming full of easy-to-use publicity forms with detailed instructions on how to use them for getting fantastic results!

For example, you will soon be able to...

- Generate book reviews
- Get valuable interviews with local, regional and national journalists
- Position yourself as an expert
- Secure exposure on the blogs of influential thought-leaders
- Create attention-getting press kits with the most sought after information about your book
- General radio talk show interviews and prepare the host for a thought-provoking, controversial or fascinating conversation with you, the expert
- Provide media outlets with tips and advice they will use because their audiences need the information only you can provide
- Syndicate informational articles online
- Achieve your communications goals with every single media interview
- Position yourself as a credentialed expert resource
- Save yourself oodles of money using Build Book Buzz Publicity Forms and Templates

Here's a list of the forms and templates you will soon have access to:

Use each form or template by re-naming the document (so that you keep the original form or template intact while editing the copy); make any edits you need to and violà --- you'll look like a book marketing pro!

Besides, you can easily convert your finished form into a crisp, clean PDF!

READ MORE HERE: Get details about the workbook, see ways to use it effectively and find the list of the forms and templates, along with their page numbers in the workbook. There is a download link at the bottom of the page but I don't advise you use it. I can only vouch for the official download link I found in a Clickbank search.

Magic Button :

NEED THE PDF, INSTEAD...?

If you don't have MS Word installed (or use a Mac computer) you can still see the forms and templates in a PDF. So, I am including that format below:

BBB-PUB-TEMPLATES - PDF

Magic Button :

You can convert it to an editable format online by searching for a PDF-to-whatever-you-need app. You can also use the forms and templates in the PDF as a guide to creating your own from scratch.

Use these links to learn how to do it:

EDIT A PDF ON MAC

Magic Button :

Or do a search like this one to find a good .doc- or .docx-to-Mac converter tool to edit the forms natively:

NOTE: I do need to mention that I haven't had time yet to go through the book. It consists primarily of forms and templates you need to get the media to write about or book interviews, etc. about your book.

I will say that this book was sold in mid-2000 but this information is essentially evergreen because there are only so many ways to interact with the media. You don't need to worry much about it being outdated.

You will be supplying much of the content (info about your books); this workbook helps you with formatting, providing the most information details the media needs and making a professional presentation. And if you come across recommendations that no longer exist or best practices you know need to be updated, a quick web search is all you need.

My advice: Use what you have at your disposal; improvise or update where you need to.

I'm adding these additional book promotion helpers.

Most of these links go to free downloads on Sandra Beckwith's BuildBookBuzz.com site; others go to informational blog posts on Sandra's or others' sites. A few links are to podcast transcripts Ms. Beckwith collaborated on (ex: the Daniel Hall Real Fast Results link) while others may have nothing to do with Sandra Beckwith's book promotion stuff but are related to the writing craft; so if I felt they could be useful in this share, I tossed 'em in!

Good gobs of almighty Lady!!

You must have been up all night putting this monster together.

Don't you ever sleep????

12days says Thanks

and reps!!

Perfect 10

***layna61524*** · 05-30-2021, 05:44 AM

@12days: I actually slept very well last night (and most nights), thanks for asking. But you're right, I worked on this share until very late on yesterday; so much so that I skipped dinner completely and had a sandwich instead.

After I mistakenly located a download link for the featured e-book, I started finding more and more links to author resources and wanted to make this into a major share.

Most books suffer from under-exposure; no one buys books they aren't aware of. So marketing and publicity for authors is a very critical need.

It took me some 5 hours to do this on yesterday and by 11 p.m., I decided to let it marinate overnight instead of publishing it to the forum; just in case I wanted to make any last-minute changes. This morning, I decided to add a few more links to courses and trainings.

So nearly 9 hours and over 100 links later, I'm finally done. The research and creating/finding individual downloads for the e-books took the most time.

Thank you for your reps and for all those cute little 10/10 emojis! I really appreciate that!

Enjoy!

for liking my shares!

Thank you for this amazing share. Repped you!

This Mega Share is just AWESOME!!!!!!THANK YOU SO MUCH !!!! WOW!!! AmaZing Reps!!!!

***BlackTopHat*** · (This post was last modified: 05-30-2021 06:59 PM by BlackTopHat.)

Good lord, I'm exhausted just from reading the thread! I skipped this one until I read the Gaughran thread. I'm not doing fiction now but if you are make some mirrors! Kayna worked her proverbial tail off on this one, help her out FFS! Bump up your reps by helping others.

***TreeMan*** · 05-30-2021, 06:12 PM

F*** Im just about finish with my book and this pop up! Good looks

***banjo*** · 05-30-2021, 09:44 PM

Wow! this is some share. You're one very special lady and we would be lost without you.
Thanks

***layna61524*** · (This post was last modified: 05-31-2021 01:38 AM by layna61524.)

@charliesangeland Tomwol: I'm glad you like it. Thank you both for posting to the thread.

@BlackTopHat: You're right; I really "put in some time" on this one. This may be my biggest share yet based on the number of links. Thank you for your support. And if anyone wants to mirror, I suggest just mirroring the Build Book Buzz Templates and Forms file ONLY; most of the information links go to Ms. Beckwith's website and those can be found on one's own. The other ebooks are from Amazon but a few of those titles may be available at pdfdrive or b(dash)ok(dot)cc. Besides, those mediafire links should last a while.

@TreeMan: Sorry that my timing of this share didn't jibe with your book project. Hahahaaaa! Seriously, though ... don't let that keep you from utilizing any of this information. The featured product (Build Book Buzz Publicity Forms and Templates Workbook) is all about publicity --- getting the word out about your finished book so that the media will seek you out for interviews, blog and magazine promotional blurbs and more so that tens of thousands will know about and consider buying it.

I actually don't see that my share comes too late for you. In fact, I think the timing couldn't have been any better! If your book is already written but not yet released, you can use a lot these resources to "shore up" any weak spots to make your book even better.

If you've released the book already, use some of this information to make your NEXT book a better one.

Maybe I'm just being too "literal" and your post was all in good fun but if you were serious, let me assure you that it is never too late to learn more. This information can make you an even better badass for your next book project.

You want your book to be ready to "meet the press" so now is the time to iron out any kinks and use these best practices so it will shine in the spotlight. Any resources and knowledge you can use to make this (or your next) book better is a good thing, right?! And if I have contributed towards that end with this share, I can take pride in that. Best wishes with your book project!

@banjo: Thank you for your kind post. I appreciate it (and you).

@All: This share was really a labor of love for me. I don't think I've ever worked harder, so I hope everyone who needs this information will find the value in it. After writing a book, the hardest part for an author is making others aware of it so that they can make money. This share (and Sandra Beckwith's product) can help make that much, much easier for you.

Enjoy the share!

Thanks

Layna61524

***taildive777*** · 06-01-2021, 01:25 PM

Unbelievable share. Max reps added. I offer you my heartfelt thanks.
