YOU ARE YOUR OWN BEST MARKETING REP!
In the modern world of business [and your business is writing] it’s useless to be a creative, original thinker unless you can also sell what you create. –David Ogilvy
In each subsequent newsletter you receive, I will be sending out tips to help you be your own best marketer. Of course, DPP will do as much work as we can on our end, but the lengths which you go to make your book a success are what is crucial to the success of your book- No one can promote your book as well as you can!
Please send me questions you have about marketing and self-promotion and topics that you are interested in learning more about. I will do my best to gather the best answers and information possible and pass it along in our weekly e-letter.
Send questions and topic ideas to nicpit@DigitalPulpPublishing.com
WHAT’S GOING ON AT DPP…

Genene, David and I attended last year’s conference, and we’re going again in 2006. It’s a good networking ground, and there is good information on the publishing industry. Also, it’s a great opportunity to meet agents (they have “speed dating” where you can pitch your book to agents in about 5 minutes). They also have nightly sessions where you can read your work out loud and get feedback. And, heck: it’s San Francisco- a wonderful writer’s town and a magnificent city!
Write on,
Nicky
