How you can promote your book

You have every right to be proud of your work and your publication. There are exciting opportunities to promote your work with social media posts, interviews, or animated video abstracts.

To help you get started, we've gathered a selection of tools and tactics here.

Step-by-step guide

1. Involve your institution

You may want to ask your university's or institution's communications department if they can help: your book contribution might be suitable for press coverage. If your institution has a social media profile, blog or podcast, ask them to share your work, consider writing a guest post, or offer to give an interview.

2. Make the most of ready-made assets in the author toolkit

New authors will receive bespoke marketing assets for their book, including a promotional flyer, social media images compatible with a range of social media platforms, and an email signature banner. 

3. On that note... Leverage social media!

Social media offers you a direct and accessible platform to engage with wide audiences and promote your book.
