TOPIC  | Marketing Beyond Social Media

Consistently creating interesting, engaging content takes time and creativity–both are precious commodities for authors. Not to mention the challenge of finding followers. Let’s look beyond social media and ads to tap into other marketing options. We will also explore how to develop a marketing strategy with 3.5 questions and why marketing presents such a big challenge for authors.
