Authors end up wearing all the hats an entreprenuer wears, even when published traditionally. Do you know how to build an online presence? How to set up structures to streamline your efforts? How to use technology to make your life more simple?
Like start-ups, writers also march to the beat of their own drummers. Add to that our (sometimes chaotic) creative personalities, the pull of the artistic muse, and the fact that marketing oneself is challenging to say the least. It’s not surprising that we often need help developing a marketing plan that’s as creative and unique as we are.
Don’t wait until you get that publishing contract to start thinking about the business of being an author. The time leading up to the release of your book is the most crucial time to its success. Make the most of yours, and keep from derailing your creative life in the process. Want some guidance?
Naomi offers one hour consultations to help writers strategize about how to set themselves up for success. Depending on your level of expertise, the range of topics includes:
1. Finding the heart of your message and building an authentic online presence that works for you
2. Streamlining and making the most of your online efforts
3. Building a professional network online
4. Using technology to make your life easier
5. Strategizing about off-line events and the booking process
Each session will end with a strategizing process so that writers come away with a specific action plan. Sessions are held on Google+ chat and are $100 hourly. Half hour sessions offered as well.
