Advanced Marketing Copy |
|
Advanced Marketing Copy - $199 Writing a book is hard enough! Compelling marketing copy takes objectivity and advertising knowledge from a professional who is familiar with the writing techniques used to get attention and sell more of your book. Let us create a professional, eye-catching short description and sentence description, as well as compelling back cover text and author biography to really bring home the sale. Since you're publishing a book, we know that you are a writer at heart; however, writing compelling marketing copy about your work can prove to be a difficult task and often, one best left up to a professional marketing writer. Our marketing writers are experienced professionals trained to distance themselves from your work and put your book's "best foot" forward. Once you purchase this service, our editorial team will send you a questionnaire requesting your input on the key messages and the direction of your marketing copy. Then our writers will take the information you provide and shape it into marketing copy designed to suit multiple purposes. While you are able to purchase this service at any time, we recommend that you purchase it when you initially select your publishing package as it takes two weeks to fulfill after we receive your completed manuscript and questionnaire. Getting started on this early will ensure you are able to make the most of the copy on your book's back cover, promotional materials and on your book's detail pages on our online sales channels. Please note if you are using one of our ready-to-print PDF submission programs, you will need to place any purchased marketing copy on your files prior to uploading them. With the Advanced Marketing Copy service, you will receive the following elements: One Sentence Description One Sentence Description is your book's key message in one effective, winning sentence. This can be used to describe your book in multiple places, such as our online sales channels and on your promotional items such as postcards/bookmarks when you purchase the our Publicity Kit. Short Description Short Description is typically one paragraph containing several sentences highlighting your book's most important elements. This can be used to describe your book in multiple places, such as our online sales channels and on your promotional items such as postcards/bookmarks when you purchase the our Publicity Kit. Long Description Long Description is several paragraphs further expounding on your book's content and key messages. This can be used to describe your book in multiple places, such as our online sales channels and on your promotional items such as sell-sheets when you purchase the our Publicity Kit. Front Cover Text Front Cover Text, the most important real estate of your book, will be designed to attract potential readers and generate a first impression of your book. A book indeed is judged by its front cover and it has the potential to create a serious interest in your book. Once a reader approves of your Front Cover, he or she will look at the Back Cover or the inside of the book. Back Cover Text Back Cover Text, the second most important real estate of your book, after the Front Cover, will be designed to further attract potential readers and generate a second impression in your book. Most people look at the Back Cover if they are impressed by the Front Cover, but make no mistake, a poorly designed Back Cover may turn off a potential sale. Table of Index At least for some types of books, the Table of Index is a very important component of the book. Readers look at this information to see the contents of the book. We can make the Table of Content of your book look professional to give a more in-depth knowledge about your book to the potential readers. Author Biography Readers are curious to know about the author of the book. Establish credibility and connect with your readers through a professionally written author biography. Tell them about your background, career, achievements, awards you have won, what inspired you to write your book and more. |
