Authors Are You Ready To Successfully Sell Your Book?

Marketing your book online doesn't have to be a hit-or-miss production. You can take control of your sales and success and attain the best-selling status your book deserves. You are your greatest advocate when it comes to your novel.

If you believe in your book--- believe that you have worked hard enough, inoculated every page with your intense passion for the subject you write about, feel as though you know your audience, and are dedicated to the cause of getting the RIGHT kind of PR and readership, then I can show you how to make your vision a reality.

I'll teach you how to sell your books through a series of marketing strategies that I, as a teenager, a reviewer, and a published author, feel are the most influential.

I'm embarking on a new six-month newsletter that can be sent to you-- brimming with strategies, Q+A's with published authors, literary agents, and publishers, teen book reviews, release dates, and advice to accompany personal consultations by phone or email. These invaluable consultations will center around a marketing campaign that is right for you and your novel.

Many authors feel completely adrift when it comes to advertising. I can't tell you how often I hear, "I'm a writer. I write. I have no idea how to market my book, I'm an artist not a car salesman." To authors who feed me that line I tell them to stop. To look at their book--particularly their published books, and tell me that they couldn't find anyone to believe them when they said they were going to make it as a writer. If writing isn't persuading others to see the world the way that you do, then what is it?

You can do this --if you have the power and the knowledge. You will be the one selling this novel at the end of the day. Would you like to be guided? I can guide you, but you're the only one who can make others believe in you and your work. Take credit for the burgeoning phenomenon that you are.

Shawn Decker, author of MY PET VIRUS gets cover of Today's Teen Magazine

 "As a first-time author, I was fortunuate to cross paths with Ilana Jacqueline online. I was impressed by her accomplishments, and responded to an online query which resulted in an interview by Ilana and a cover story for Today's Teen.
Ilana is one of the most professional people I've dealt with since my book was published.  Her love for the work she does shines through."

I've been working for a teen magazine since 2004 helping to spread the word about outstanding authors and the incredible new wave of teen literature which has middle and high school readers spending their Friday evenings sunk against bookshelves at their local Barnes and Nobles.  With publishing companies investing in more appealing packaging, advertising in glossy teen magazines and sending their writers on nation-wide book tours it seems there is no better time to dive into the business that is growing like wildfire. My job has been to weed through the stacks and pluck the roses from the crabgrass, and get those roses on the cover of our magazine. As a reviewer I painstakingly critique every book that authors or publishing companies send to me--and to be perfectly honest few of them never make it past the front door. Want to find out why these books are getting the bin before I ever make it to the first page? That, I can help you with.
