Marketing a Book?

On the way home from Denver after Christmas, my son Kenton and I discussed marketing his up-coming release Unikra. He's convinced his marketing plan will work, so we discussed his strategies. He likes networking and has set out to create a dynamic network of people who will buy his book. He's 13 and already has a vast following at http://kentonverhoeff.com and it continues to grow.

His strategy is clear. He's making friends whom he can tell when he publishes his book, who will tell their friends. For centuries people have marketed products using this strategy. Tell someone who tells someone and soon the whole world will know.

Isn't that what book marketing is all about?

My site offers a bit more direct marketing with multiples of his strategy all ready in place.
