Penny is an awesome resource when it comes to book marketing and has helped thousands of authors through Author Marketing Experts, Inc, and through her books. Trust me, you won't want to miss this presentation!



Amazon is a great place to sell books, but most authors don’t realize that Amazon has an internal sales machine that will actually help you market your book, for free, if you trigger it? It’s called their internal algorithm and, not that dissimilar from ranking on Google, once Amazon’s algorithm kicks in, you could see a boatload of free promotion come your way from Amazon. Here’s what the session will cover:
  • Optimize your Amazon page: what you must do to start showing up in more searches
  • Understanding categories and why eBook and print categories are always different. More importantly, you’ll learn why this matters.
  • How to optimize your book title, subtitle and keywords on Amazon.
  • Making your Author Central page work for you.
  • Amazon hacks: fun tricks you can to do spruce up your Amazon page.
  • Amazon reviews: simple ways to find more reviewers for your book and get more reviews.
Bonus: We’ve all heard about the eBook surge, if you’re ready to create one or have one already out, you’ll want to stay for these bonus tips on pricing, sales strategy and why giving away an eBook may be the best way to sell it.

Here's just a few of Penny's books:

Virginia Jennings to present at #PD14

Promo Day welcomes back Virginia Jennings for the 2014 event. This year she'll be sharing ideas for author events.




Presentation Title: What Your Author Event Can Learn From The Olympics


Description:

The hardest thing about offline marketing is getting your readers to notice you. By themselves or in groups, authors peddling their books can be intimidating to readers and their wallets. If you are thinking your book cover alone will draw a crowd remember that all the other authors believe that too. After visitors leave you want them to be excited to tell their friends about you. Traditional 'swag' either gets buried in the bottoms of purses or thrown in the trash eventually. Lets make some memories and turn author events upside down! Join Virginia as she explains how you can get everyone run over to your table and beg to join in the fun! 


Bio:


Virginia Jennings is a speculative fiction author of two books as well as an illustrator with PDMI Publishing LLC. Jack of all trades, master of none she is a die hard tinkerer; she enjoys working at something until she gets it right. Whether it is ideas for her next novel, or trying to understand how the human brain works, she loves to research stuff.

Virginia lives in South Carolina with her husband and three kids. When she is not writing she enjoys watching science fiction or action adventure movies with her family.
