Your right-hand for author and book publicity that needs to be completed on time, on budget, by a business professional.
Publishers today want an author with a "platform". That means you come with your own marketing package: website, Facebook followers, LinkedIN contacts - and that you actively schedule and release a stream of desirable information about genre, interests, appearances. That platform is what I create or enhance and maintain with you. Platform has no laurels to rest upon . . . we have to work on it every day to keep it alive and well. If platform is a mystery to you, please carefully read "A Definition of Author Platform" by publishing and new media guru Jane Friedman.
I’m a sales and marketing professional, with years of experience selling software, hardware, corporate training, and recently, publicizing authors and books. My last corporate position was COO for The Business Channel, a division of Public Broadcasting Service in Alexandria, VA. Then, high tech delivery of learning was my field. In 2011, I retired for a year and came running back to the world of work—much more stimulating.
