The Book Marketing Network

For book/ebook authors, publishers, & self-publishers

I have completed the manuscript for my first book (about 110,000 words). The book is primarily focused on achieving financial success (wealth and abundance). It does this by helping the reader to first recognize and achieve their full potential, then to create life and financial success visions followed by a proven methodology to achieve them.

I (of course) consider it to be a powerful book for people because it uses logical process flow and a methodology that is repeatable for solving various problems and opportunities. I have had eight others review the book and they too think it is a great book that could help millions of people.

I am a seasoned business executive and fully understand sales and marketing. However, book marketing and sales is a new ballgame. I have done considerable study on numerous approaches on social networks, blogs, websites, radio and TV, seminars, etc.

The dilemma I am having is to put all of this into the proper order prior to publishing the book (that too has options which I am weighing). I had hoped to go the traditional publishing route and started drafting a comprehensive proposal for a literary agent. I am unsure how much of the marketing effort I need to do before submitting these proposals. Also how much I can expect from the publisher in term of letting me know the types of things they would prefer I do. I understand they don’t do much in the way of marketing but there surely are things they would want me to do. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
