Marketing? Who doesn't love it?
I know I do. I have a passion for it, and especially for copywriting. So much so that I used to do it for a living.
Words have power. Words change the world. Words change how we feel.
If you look at it from that perspective, copywriting and fiction have a lot in common.
As it happens, writing fiction is also my passion. For this, I have a pen name and also publish under my real name - Robert Ryan. Nonfiction goes under Robert J. Ryan.
By a stroke of good fortune, and perhaps a little hard work, I'm able to work as a full-time writer for a living. My copywriting and fiction-writing skills have come together to form the foundation of a publishing career.
Oh. And I also have a side gig. I'm Lead Marketing Consultant for a traditional publisher - Vinci Books.
I asked above if there was anyone who didn't love marketing. Truth is, I know a lot of people don't.
If that's you, is it possible you've been taught the wrong way to do it?
I invite you to read my books and see if I can change that for you. Or you can join my Facebook group (Author Unleashed) for free. There we'll discuss all things indie marketing. There, in fact, I hope to drive the cutting edge of book marketing tactics for sales copy and Amazon ads. It'll be a place to get feedback on your marketing efforts until they're honed to razor-like effectiveness.
Want to be part of that? I look forward to meeting you!
