Virtual Book Tours Expose Your Books for More Sales
Promotion of new books has just come of age thanks to a new tool called Virtual Book tours. In the past authors would travel from town to town and bookseller to bookseller to sign and promote their book. Now they can sit in their own living room with a telephone and achieve better results by conducting a teleseminar. A teleseminar is essentially a large conference call where the author is interviewed and the call is listened to by hundreds of people.
The virtual book tours or teleseminars allow the story of the author and book to be told to many more people at the time of their choosing, regardless of where they are. It provides a rapid way for new authors to penetrate the niche that they are writing about with much less time and expense, as compared to old-style book signings.
This strategy allows you to sell more books, more often and to more people while limiting your cost outlay, a concern for sure for new authors. It is simple, you are interviewed over the telephone in the comfort of your own surroundings where you can talk about your book. The subsequent recording can be heard live by individuals who are targeted and invited to attend the call by calling in at a pre-determined time or by listening to the recorded call at the time of their choosing, versus visiting a book store at a time of someone else’s choosing.
Authors such as Donald Trump, Mark Victor Hansen and Jay Abraham have used Virtual Book Tours to generate massive exposure for their books which helped them vault to the top of the bestseller lists in a short period of time.
The common link to these authors and their success has been Alex Mandossian who has taught thousands of students. He is San Francisco based, and provides superior marketing training with his Virtual Book Tour Secrets program .
