Helpful Tips For Authors: Book Brush

Dominique Gibson is back with yet another recommendation for authors on designing, promoting and marketing your books to reach readers around the world. This recommendation came from a Facebook friend I’ve met online through the ALLI (Alliance of Independent Authors) Facebook Group (Something that I will talk about later this week). I had created a list of things that I needed to do for the upcoming year when it came to publishing and promoting my books online and Vicki Noe recommended a website which I absolutely love and will use for my book cover templates for Ingramspark and StreetLib.

It’s called Book Brush and it’s a website that authors can use to do social media ads, book cover templates. and even do a 3D mock up of your books and even has the option of doing a box set if authors have multiple books they would like to advertise on Amazon and other online retailers. How great is that?

If you want more information about the pretty neat services they offer, check out their website here. That’s it for this article of Helpful Tips For Authors. Make sure you check back on here on my website for more information, tips, and updates on everything that’s related to the publishing world and I will see you next time.

Helpful Tips for Authors: Literary Titan

Hello, it’s me, Dominique Gibson and I’m back with another lovely recommendation for authors who may be having trouble marketing and promoting their books online or otherwise. I have found another website where you can be able to purchase book trailers, book reviews, and even have the opportunity to have your book be entered in a literary book award. This organization is called Literary Titan and is made up of professional editors, writers, and professors who love the power of the written word.

This organization offers authors the opportunity to purchase a book trailer and/or a book review for very cheap prices. It also features a link to their YouTube channel to where authors can see the type of book trailers they have done.  They also gave authors to explore their website to see what other features they have to offer to promote their books as well.

To find out more information about Literary Titan, you can check the link I’ve highlighted throughout this post. That’s it for this Helpful Tips For Authors article. Be sure to check back this website often for the latest updates for all things related to the publishing world in addition to any recent updates about the latest novels in the Truson S.E.T. series and more. See you soon!

Helpful Tips For Authors: Book Candy Studios

Hello, Dominique Gibson back here again with another Helpful Tips for Authors article. Today I will be talking a little bit about another marketing tool that could very essential for any author looking to promote their books whether they are traditionally published or self-published (although some of these articles may be directed towards self-published authors from time to time because of promotional reasons). I found this wonderful website where you can purchase book trailers.

That’s right, I said book trailers. Book trailers are another marketing tool authors can use in order to promote their books, especially if you are writing a series (My advice to anyone that is writing a series is to wait until you write and publish the first three to four books in the series before you decide to do a book trailer so that you will be able to promote all three books at the end of the trailer instead of promoting just one book). If you are strongly on the market to find someone who could do a really good job of doing book trailers, One of my recommendations I have for you is Book Candy Studios.

Book Candy Studios is a website that offers authors (both fiction and nonfiction) the opportunity to create the book trailer of their dreams. This company has created trailers for bestselling authors and includes a video on the services they offer based on the genre and the type of book you are writing. I just recently explored this website and found out that a lot of bestselling authors are using this site, not to mention they have worked with some of the biggest publishers in the publishing world (St. Martin Press, Harpercollins, and Kensington just to name a few).

I didn’t really get the full info about how much the book trailer cost but if you want more information about their services, please check out the two links above this post to check them out.

That’s it for this Helpful Tips For Authors article, please be sure to check back often to find more Helpful Tips For Authors articles, the latest news and updates on book reviews, updates, and more right here on my website and please don’t forget to subscribe to my monthly newsletter on this website as well.
