For many authors, it seems like it would take a Herculean
effort to have their book marketed well and promoted successfully. It is almost
as if authors need to channel a superhero in order to get the job done. Writers
may need to develop their inner book marketing gladiator!
What does a book marketing gladiator look like
or do?
The looks like part is easy to answer. He or she
is you. Yes, you look, right now, in the mirror, and you must see a book
marketing gladiator.
This means you will become:
* Resilient
* Assertive
* A Fighter
* Confident
* Resourceful
* Courageous
You will build up the muscles needed to defeat
the enemies of fear, laziness, or negativity as it relates to promoting your
book. A dark knight will not appear out of nowhere to save you. No, no. You are
to become the gladiator, ready to go to battle to get your voice heard, your
message embraced, your book sold.
Like the gladiator, you must buck the odds. You
shall feel alone on the battlefield. You may feel lost in unknown terrain. But
you will become who and what is needed to get the job done.
How do I know this?
Because you have no choice. You must step up or
be stepped over. I believe in you. Sometimes you won’t win your battle, but you
will live another day to try again.
You are the book marketing gladiator — and
tomorrow you shall be victorious.
