Film and Audio

Sell yourself, sell your books - you’ve finished your story, now let the world know

Film and audio marketing

You can create podcasts to share your first chapter or an excerpt of your current or a future novel. This will help your reader to connect with you and will pique their interest in your writing.

Another popular idea is to create a podcast where you are interviewed either about your book, or about your writing process.

Video shorts can be used to create book trailers. Moving images generate interest both on social media and on your website. You will spend time, effort and money to get the right cover for your story, so creating a cover reveal and trailer to show this off is a great piece of marketing to share with readers.

Additionally, publishers and agents will be enthusiastic about an author who works with them to market their own books.

If you don’t have the time or knowledge to do this professionally then Author’s Pen can help.
