The APSS Virtual Book Selling Conference was a great success!

More than 300 people registered for the 10 courses conducted by 15 different speakers with more than 800 'seats' filled. The feedback has been excellent. Everyone (from Australia to England) discovered more ways in which to profitably produce, publish and market their books in ways and places they never thought of. Here are three more comments from attendees:

        “Such a great time at the APSS online conference last week! I'm still buzzing.”  L. R. Hay

      “The amount of useful information for pros and novices alike was mindboggling!  No matter where one falls in the spectrum, there is much to be able to put into action immediately. The links to the recorded segments affording the ability to go back over the materials at leisure are invaluable!” Eleanor Jones

Do you have good book-marketing habits? Some habits are good, some not so good. How can you tell if a habit is good or bad? Good habits are hard to make and easy to break. Bad habits are easy to make and hard to break. Many publishers are in the easy-to-make habit of selling only through bookstores. They market each new title in the same way they did all previous ones, or as everybody else does it. While that habit is not inherently bad, it could limit your sales, revenue and profits. Evaluate your habits and seek a different way to increase your sales – in non-bookstore markets. APSS can help you create good book-marketing habits.
