Marketing Young Adult Books
What Successful Young Adult Authors Do...and You Can Do TOO!
In this course, we will cover targeting and marketing as it relates to the Young Adult Audience. This course will help you shift gears a bit with your current marketing plan; it's not advised as a standalone. If you don't have any marketing plan or marketing knowledge, you will still need this. This course is meant to help you take what marketing knowledge you do have and make changes for bigger results in the Young Adult genre.
Included in this Course
1. Why YA Books Are Harder To Sell (and How to Change That!)
2. How to Develop YA Concepts that will sell in an INDIE Market (versus YA Concepts that will sell in a TRAD Market)
3. Product Development Tips for Young Adult Novels.
4. Tips on Building Your Young Adult Brand (Learn What Things Bella Forrest and Amanda Hocking have in Common)
