5 Reasons Why Social Marketing is a Must

In a Web 2.0 world, social marketing leverages your business with audio, video, and text. As an example, blogging may very well turn out to be one of the most ingenuous marketing strategies for anyone who has an online business and is willing to commit to its process.

Web 2.0 seems such an unlikely stratagem that many online marketers are still wary of using as a marketing tactic, much to their disadvantage. Statistics show that marketers who have embraced and adopted social marketing have experienced unprecedented success. Here are three reasons why social marketing is important for your online business.

I’ve got a homework assignment (we’re reading books) it’s described like this: "Pretend you work at a book publisher. Market the book. Choose a presentation or a text." And I just don’t get it? Do I just write a summary of the book? :S

How do book publishers market books??

Look for ads about books. What does the publisher say about the book to get you interested?
Does the publisher talk about the author? about past books by the author? price? Do they try to make the book look interesting with pictures and drawings? Do they try to make the book look sexy? How?
Do they show a selection of the book? Do they tell you who liked the book?

I just don’t see how I would be able to get sales. I don’t know how J.K Rowling was able to gain soo much publicity for her book. It’s status just went sky rocketing.

Basically, I want to know the best way to get people to read a book.
Planning is vital in anything. I am planning ahead.

It is far harder sitting down day after day and writing a ‘really good book’ than it is to sell it.
