INTRODUCTION

So, you’ve decided to give the big publishing houses the bird and strike out on your own as an independent author. Way to stick it to The Man! I should re-phrase that and say “Way to try and stick it to The Man” because if you aren’t successful, you aren’t sticking it to anyone but yourself. That is the whole reason I am writing this book: I want to use my ten plus years of corporate marketing and advertising experience to help indie authors like you get out there and be successful regardless of a system that often seems stacked against you.

This is the book I wish I had when I wrote my first indie book. It gives detailed instruction on how to:

•Create a long-term brand

•Package your book as well as—if not better than—the big publishing houses

•Design book covers that will be noticed

•Write strategic promotional copy based on buyer psychology and best practices

•Win book sales with smart digital strategies

•Do-it -yourself search engine optimization (SEO)

•Build a smarter, more profitable website

•Make social media produce dividends

•Get the best return on your advertising dollar

•Attract free media attention and what to do when you get it

•And lots more in a succinct, schedule-friendly book

My book is not just a “how-to,” but a “how-to-do-it-like-the-best.” It includes real-world examples from true leaders, easy-to-understand principles with graphic support and most importantly, I don’t just tell you how to do things; I provide actionable ideas and strategies that can help you be more successful. If you are serious about a career as an indie author, MaFIA: Marketing For Indie Authors is a whole new level of marketing book for savvy independent writers.
