Book Promotion Using Virtual Presentations
with Publicity Coach and Speaker Steve Harrison
How can we market in a pandemic? MiPA’s May virtual meeting speaker, Steve Harrison is a marketing expert who says authors and publishers can use webinars and other virtual presentations (webcasts, web classes, teleseminars, Facebook Live videos, and more) to sell books and expand their reach … mask-free.
“The most successful authors and experts are committed to learning how to market themselves.”
During MiPA’s May meeting, Steve will talk about:
- Why you should be doing virtual presentations before you write your book.
- The 4 things you must have to monetize your virtual presentation.
- The 10 biggest mistakes people make when doing virtual presentations.
- How to do a virtual book signing.
- Best of all, you don’t have to be a “tech geek” to succeed with virtual presentations.
