One of the most interesting insights from the ALLi Big Indie Author Data Drop is that even highly successful indie authors maintain a “marketing forever mindset,” recognizing that marketing remains their responsibility. Despite using various tools and assistance, marketing is a constant task. Many emerging or struggling indie authors expressed that they least enjoy marketing, highlighting the need for a mindset shift from reluctant to proactive marketing.
In this inspiring and mind-shifting session chaired by Melissa Addey, join Dawn Brookes, Mark Dawson, Karen Inglis, Rachel McLean, Alison Morton, Octavia Randolph, Marc Reklau, Brit Bensen, Mark Hayden, and Elizabeth Stevens all multiple bestselling authors who show what makes marketing a positive activity for them. If thinking ‘marketing will be with you forever' horrifies you as an author, then you need these sessions!
