New online coaching service for authors and small presses 

Picture
In addition to providing outsourcing solutions for publishers, distributors and others in the book industry, we also have a consulting and coaching arm. Some projects we work on are related to sales, operations, distribution and business development. Many are for organisations and publishing companies based overseas and often in partnership with larger consulting firms to the book industry.

We've recently we've been doing more and more book marketing and industry *coaching* work. Clients are asking for custom services, particularly around digital marketing and social media - for their authors. We already provide outsourced marketing services that include managing websites, digital marketing campaigns, social media and digital advertising so this is taking it directly to authors who want to create a brand, who want helpful advice and guidance on marketing that is specific to them. One size does not fit all, as we know only too well.

Most of the work we do here at RM Marketing Services is with professional, scholarly and university presses. We're more than happy to extend these services to publishers of all sizes who have authors who are uncomfortable with the online world, don't understand social media, and who need some hand-holding and one-on-one coaching with digital and social media marketing.

As an added bonus, this is a flexible service which can be done out of "normal" business hours. We offer a discounted hourly rate for publishers with regular bookings as part of their author care approach.
Indie authors are also welcome and we're happy to do a workshop with a small press or writing group.

There are plenty of books and websites available on how to market books and how to maximise social media and digital marketing efforts but the authors we work with, particularly those working in corporate, professional and university markets, don't have the time to read them all. They are looking for tips and tricks and how to raise their profile in the channels in which they work - and more importantly, a social media and marketing strategy that works for them.


Publishers! Get in contact with us to see how we can support the work you do with your authors. Another string to your author care bow.
