What Makes Book Publicity Successful?

Credibility and visibility are two of the most important ingredients for a successful book, and publicity campaigns support both objectives. If you're a self-published author deciding how to market your book, planning a well-rounded PR effort can work in your favor. Target readers need to learn about your book and be encouraged to buy and read it. Coverage by suitable media, online and traditional, can move the needle. The keen competition in today's bookselling marketplace makes marketing support crucial to your book's success. Without it, you may be lost in the shuffle or overwhelmed. 

For the credibility part of book marketing, being interviewed on respected shows, channels, and podcasts can have an impact. The most obvious value is the immediate introduction to a new audience. But the implied part of the guest appearance is that you (and your book) are interesting and worthy of discussion. Audiences follow program hosts and are impressed by them. When you are in conversation with the host, the credibility spills over onto you. It's also why you must select media carefully and ensure they reach your target readers. It would help if you appeared before people interested in your topic.

The success of book PR campaigns also relies on planning. Along with key message development, it's the vital first part of the process. Once your campaign begins and some tactics work better, you can make adjustments to maximize results. Unlike advertising that you control directly because you buy the ad space or time, PR-generated coverage relies on convincing the media you're newsworthy. It's why you want well-developed media materials like a press kit and expertly crafted pitch letters or emails. It's all drawing on persuasive writing that explains how your book contributes to something unique.

It's common for first-time authors to wonder whether social media is enough to promote a book. For some influencers and celebrities with millions of followers, it might prove successful when used stand-alone. But the much more reliable way to market a book involves a multi-pronged campaign. Getting media coverage is an excellent way to improve your social media content. You can tell fans about articles and videos they can find online to learn more about you and your book. It's easy to see how media coverage and social media posts work hand in hand. They each make the other powerful.
