Christian Marketing: How To Market Your Book Online

When it comes to Christian marketing online, you may not have a clue about how to market your book online. That doesn't bother you at first because you are simply relieved you finally wrote the book!

It is written. You can't wait to get your book in the hands of readers who will be blessed, helped, and encouraged by your gift in writing.

"Marketing a book is like lunch. You eat lunch so you have the energy to keep going all day. You know that if you skip lunch, you're tired by 2:00. Likewise, you market your book so it can "keep going" in the marketplace; no marketing may mean that sales will dwindle before they need to." -Wheatmark Publishing Success.

Like any ministry marketing campaign, you need a basic marketing plan. Ministry Marketing Productions Six Steps To Your Ministry Marketing Success would be a good place to start.
