Seven Secrets of Successful Self-Published Authors … How to Get Publicity Inexpensively
Best-selling author Jack Canfield (Chicken Soup for the Soul) says “If you publish your book and don’t market it, it’s like having a baby and leaving it at someone else’s doorstep to
raise.”
Syd will share unique, insightful ways you can gain publicity for your self-published book. Her book, All-Day Energy: 100 Ways to Boost Your Energy…Now! was published on
April 11, 2012. Over the past three months, Syd has given six live
presentations and spoken on over three dozen radio shows. She has arranged
