Authors: Promote & Sell Books on Mobile

I'm reading: Authors: Promote & Sell Books on MobileTweet this post



Brilliant Mobile helps Authors gather a list of raving fans, then helps them continue the conversation all the way to the sale!

Since e-books are taking the publishing industry by storm, Brilliant MOBI sites (mobile websites that make it easy for smartphone owners to access the author's information 24/7) focus on giving the fans (and the authors) what they want: a taste of the book, direct links to get to know the author, alerts on public appearances, VIP invitations, a chance to WIN some goodies, and an easy way to BUY the book, directly from their mobile phone!

Brilliant Mobile gives Authors a custom QR code that will link smart-phones instantly to their MOBI site, that they are encouraged to post everywhere: websites, email signatures, blogs, social sites like Facebook and LinkedIn, bookmarks and all promotional/collateral material.

Brilliant Mobile then builds their MOBI site that links consumers to the author, their book, video, allows them to email the author from within the site, link to their social sites and even BUY their book!

Brilliant Mobile also helps Authors gather a list of raving fans, by many methods including a keyword that when texted to a short code, delivers back a link to their MOBI site, and adds that participant to their distribution list. We also provide Online Sign-up pages and Facebook widgets that allow consumers to share how they want to be communicated with.

Since Brilliant Mobile offers multi-channel messaging, we help authors continue the conversation with their fans, with messages delivered the way their FANS want to receive them!

Rex Pickett will be at the Grand Cru event this Saturday, August 20th, in Long Beach, CA. If you text VERTICAL to 69302, you will get a Ticket to Ride, which will get you a FREE autographed copy of his new book, Vertical, the sequel to Sideways. So text in, find Rex on Saturday, show him the ticket on your phone, and get your FREE book!

Brilliant Mobile is a member of The Co-Op, an LA based group of talented marketing experts that have joined forces to help Rex by bringing together the resources and expertise of a Marketing Agency, but without the overhead costs to their clients!

Brilliant Mobile provides the Mobile services to the Co-op team, including Mobile Marketing, Mobile Websites and a variety of QR codes, all which have full analytics for determining the success of their marketing campaigns.
