MY VIRTUAL BOOK TOUR

August 18, 2014 By ssherayko Leave a Comment

Hi, it’s a beautiful, hot day outside, but I’m sitting here getting ready for my Virtual Book tour.  If you have ever wondered how authors make people aware of them when they self-publish, here is an example.  Without a large publishing machine behind them, each author must take responsibility for getting the word out on their own.

In traditional publishing, publishers arrange for authors to work with various media outlets on book tours. These may include radio, TV, newspapers, and online outlets.  They are very time consuming and frequently there are time and travel costs that the author must pay.  That’s one of the reasons why Virtual Book Tours have become so popular.  Blogs make up a huge portion of the online venues available.

Somehow I was fortunate to became aware of D’vorah Lansky, author of How to Build a Business with Your Book. D’vorah was holding a Virtual Book Tour Bootcamp for a few hundred of her virtual friends and I decided to participate.  In a few short weeks, I had learned the basics of blog tours, reached out to a variety of people and lined up places to “visit.”  Some of them will be responding in kind by becoming guest bloggers here. Tours can be as long or intense as your schedule permits.  Ultimately, mine will cover a 3 month time period.

What follows is my tour – events that have already happened with links to where they are archived, as well as upcoming events as currently planned.   The archived aspect is very important since people can come back to that material for an indefinite period of time.

Before Rainbows Over Ruins was available, Noah St. John interviewed me about his Afformations Systems. View it at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n0IWlE487D8.

Day 1 – Toginet online radio interview at http://toginet.com/shows/indiebookpublishing3.

Day 2 – Author interview at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1gzwLjfsNOs

Day 3 – Noah St. John and I shared the stage again for a Home and Family interview < ahref="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=23ug9PBHcqo">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=23ug9PBHcqo.

The conversation continued immediately afterward at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jyf9_ChsdlM

August 23 – Day 4 – It’s My Birthday – the perfect time to celebrate the Virtual Book Tour. To make the day even more special, I have invited friends over for the afternoon, including some folks who have read Rainbows Over Ruins, and worked with me. A few of them have offered to record their thoughts on video to add to the fun. If I get really daring, there may be something like a Twitter Chat!   You go, girl!

Planning a “blog-ation” like this is really fun. I am really looking forward to visiting in each of these places.  Thank you D’vorah Lansky for lighting the way.

I hope you all come along for the ride.

To Your Success,

Susan

Testimonials

Testimonials

  • “Calm, Serenity, Wisdom, Patience, Empathy. These are the characteristics that I think of, when I think of you. Throughout our relationship, you have always “shared only and freely” with me. You have never been judgmental (of anyone really) or unkind with words. Your ability to take in all the information surrounding a situation, process it in a kind, loving and logical way and then interpret the information back in such a way that I feel that I too can learn and grow from the experience, whether it was mine or not. Susan, I believe that you are a conduit, maybe not the right word…a channel…o.k. I laymen’s terms, you are the glue that holds us all together. If I were ever in a crisis…I’d want you to be with me more than anyone I know.”

    Toni Casala
    Owner, Children in Film
  • “Susan uses her whole brain when crafting solutions. She knows how to visualize the result she wants and then build the structure to support the dream. She constantly prods people who are stuck in one way of seeing something into realizing new paths to take up the mountains of success. Now she is willing to share her unique approach to creating success systems with people who are ready to go the next level in their business and personal lives. I would sign up for her seminars and coaching program quickly because once the word gets out the waiting list is going to be long. I can’t think of anyone else I would trust more with creating the logistics for launching a new endeavor. Susan knows how to create successful enterprises and she is willing to coach you to your next success.”

    Kate Maxwell
    Hypnotist, Spiritual Life Coach
  • “What I appreciate about you is your sincere and great generosity of spirit. You have an almost unlimited tolerance for the foibles of others and manage to find humor in some of the most trying circumstances. I can always count on you to give me an honest, balanced assessment of whatever is happening privately or globally. You never stagnate. You’re always seeking ways to make your life better and more meaningful. That is inspirational to me.”

    Susan Scudder
    Actress, Casting Director
  • “I love working with Susan because she has an amazing ability to help me gain clarity and focus about the possibilities that surround me. Susan is so skilled and supportive that her faith in my abilities has transformed my thinking and now I know the action steps I want to take with certainty and enthusiasm.”

    Susan Prime
