Welcome to Harmony Publishing, here we are covering a series of blogs on book publishing and especially marketing in Nigeria. Content is King. Content is cash. How to generate them in today’s post is explained.
CONTENT MARKETING & WRITING FOR FREE
Now that you are an author, you can afford to write for free. Consider that every piece of content you contribute is publicity that generates book sales. Identify parts of your manuscript that might become articles or stories, photographic layouts or other short pieces. Offer free articles to magazines, newspapers and websites in your area of expertise in exchange for a linked blurb about you and your book.
Content marketing can activate a reciprocity impulse in others. When your book is ready, you have a better chance of getting reviewed, mentioned and supported by those you’ve helped. Building relationships online is just like building relationships in real life. As in any business relationship, be professional and reliable. Other than magazines and websites on your topic, many sites host articles and stories and market their best contributors. Examples are Examiner.com and HowTo.com. Go to nairaland.com and contribute on a section relating to your book topic and you might make the front page! Always cross-post on your website and social publishing sites. Guest blogging is also an excellent content marketing strategy. A web search can help identify the critical bloggers to cultivate relationships with, and you can even arrange your blog tour when your book is published.
