This blog chain was started by Heather (http://hldyer.wordpress.com/ ). Elana was before me (http://elanajohnson.blogspot.com/ ) and then Leah will follow (http://leahclifford.livejournal.com/ ).
Here’s the question:
What plans do YOU have to market your novel? How will you make sure the public finds your work?
As I read all of the informative posts before me, I was amazed at the creativity of my fellow blog chain gang. Everything from perfume, necklace and bracelet giveaways to guest blogging, radio interviews, book trailers and even an original soundtrack were mentioned or shared in this chain. Talk about creativity!
Well, I think that’s all good, and it certainly will take a ton of hard work and dedication. That’s why I can’t believe no one has mentioned my own personal marketing goal.
One word:
OPRAH!
You are pretty much guaranteed a spot on the best seller list if she so much as whispers the name of your book, so that’s my plan A.
Now, if I fail to get Oprah’s attention (I did say “if”), then plan B involves Kelly Rippa and her Trashy Beach Reads segment.
There you have it, my marketing plan. I’ll start working on that plan C as soon as I finish taking notes on this particular blog chain.
So how about you, know anybody that works at Harpo?
