Publicity is very important if you want to get visibility for your book. Having your book published and listed at Amazon.com will not sell any books. You need publicity. Self publishing companies charge significant prices for their publicity packages and deliver very little in the way of sales. Even with large publishing houses you will find that you will have to do much of the work yourself. With a little bit of internet shopping you can find help that will do much better.

Tex Ware offers the following must-have options without cost to you.

Web Site

• If you do not have your own web site and you are not inclined to build one, Tex Ware will help you build your own web site.
• Tex Ware will provide a page for you on this web site under Authors.

If you want additional publicity please understand that this will be your responsibility. There are many sources on the internet to help you. Some things you will want to consider as you encourage people to buy your book are:

• Business cards
• Post cards
• Book marks
• Press Kit
• Contacting news papers and magazines
• Contacting book reviewers - Sending books at your expense
• Contacting radio and TV

Tex Ware will provide graphics and text for your business cards, post cards, book marks, and press kit. We will also help prepare your press kit on Tex Ware letterhead so that you can print as many as you need.

Things to avoid:

• Mass mailings - either email or snail-mail. How much junk mail do you toss?
• Get rich schemes that promise overnight success in publicity.
