Webinar: Finding Your Voice- Building Your Author Brand with Clay Gilbert

#PromoDay2018 #Webinar: Finding Your Voice- Building Your Author Brand with Clay Gilbert


Webinar title: Finding Your Voice: Building Your Author Brand

Presenter: Clay Gilbert

A brief outline of what will be covered:

In this webinar, Clay Gilbert, author of the "Children of Evohe" science fiction series, as well as "Eternity", "Dark Road to Paradise", and "The Conversationalist", talks about how you can increase audience awareness of yourself and your work by building an author brand that lets readers know what kind of experience they're in for when they buy one of your books.  Clay says, "When I first became a professional author, I quickly realized I had to show readers what a 'Clay Gilbert story' was, and why my books offered something they couldn't find by reading someone else's work.  I believe that by developing your own brand, in other words, those distinct qualities that set you apart from others in the crowded publishing marketplace, you let readers know who you are and also increase your chances at great sales impact.  I'll walk you through how to do this during my PromoDay presentation!"

#PromoDay2018 #Webinar: Help! My book isn’t selling. What can I do? with Penny C. Sansevieri


Webinar title: Help! My book isn’t selling. What can I do?

Presenter: Penny C. Sansevieri

A brief outline of what will be covered:

It’s hard to know when it’s time to give up or keep pushing, and in a world where there are 4,500 books published each day, it's easy to get lost in the flood of titles that hit Amazon. So what's an eager author to do? Well, before you give up - let's look at 9 things that could be wrong and how to fix them.

In this session we'll look at specific issues that seem to plague some books that just aren't moving the needle.

Here are a few of the things we’ll look at:
  • Marketing – are you doing enough of the right things? I’ll show you how to know what you should be doing and give yourself your very own marketing grade.
  • Cover – do you know if your cover is strong enough for the genre?
  • Reviews – do you have enough? How to get more reviews even if your book is over a year old.
  • Is your book to old? Does it matter to your reader?

Penny C. Sansevieri, Founder and CEO Author Marketing Experts, Inc., is a best-selling author and internationally recognized book marketing and media relations expert. She is an Adjunct Professor teaching Self-Publishing for NYU.

Webinar: Understanding Audiobooks with Virginia Jennings

#Webinar: Understanding Audiobooks with Virginia Jennings #PromoDay2018


Webinar title: Understanding Audiobooks

Presenter: Virginia Jennings

A brief outline of what will be covered:

How to find your producer/ what to look for
What information to give your producer before they start
What to look for when they send you a sample

How ACX works.

About Virginia:

When V.L. Jennings isn't traveling to other worlds through her imagination, she calls Dillon County, South Carolina her home. She was born in Nashua, New Hampshire in 1987 and is the author of two science fiction novels; "The Alien Mind" (which is the recipient of the Readers Favorite Five Star Review Award), and "Visionary From The Stars".

But what motivates Virginia to create, to illustrate, to prognosticate? Virginia is a speculator, the kind of person who always debates the "what if?" of where stories both true and fantastical are leading themselves to, which explains her love of post-apocalyptic fare such as "The Walking Dead." Through her writing, she enjoys trying to figure out what our human potential is, and where our innate desire for a better world could lead us.

Overall, Virginia is just about as real as a person can get. Yes, even authors love to sing along with their favorite local radio station while driving, and Virginia is no exception to this rule. She enjoys watching Doctor Who or Star Trek with her family over dinner, and also watching the latest sci-fi and action movies with her husband. On the weekends, you may even find Virginia and her family at the local comic book store, hunting down more comics to add to their collections.

V.L. Jennings spends her free time writing flash fiction on her blog and working towards her degree in Electronics Engineering. You can find out more about V.L. Jennings at www.virginialorijennings.com


You can also find V.L. Jennings on any of these social media sites!
