Looking at other ways to market my book, I was told about a networking site called, 'Linkedin'.
Now, I have signed up but haven't explored all it's features yet but another networking website couldn't harm any promotion you want to do for your books.
From the outset, (for myself) the layout is not fantastic as when I signed up, I didn't really know where to go or what to do.
I joined a few groups but at the moment all but one are still pending my request.
I have not gone into the group that has accepted me yet, however, when I do, due to it specialising in, 'New Writers', I plan on taking full advantage of all the help and support from other users by asking lots of questions and promoting my work in a discrete manner.
My sister in law is launching, 'Designer Chocolates' and was the one to refer me to the website as she is just starting her business and wanted to see what it was all about.
She has now received help, advice, referrals to alcohol distribution companies, meetings with directors and managers of some of the most prestigious restaurants in the UK and has been able to market her chocolates on the website and direct others to her website from Linkedin, which shows if you keep at it, it can be beneficial for your type of work.
