M A R K E T I N G
As you know, most publishers do very little to market individual books unless the author is already a major name like Stephen King, James Patterson, or John Grisham.
Barringer is different. We actively help our authors market their books.
The Barringer team has spent many years marketing businesses, real estate developments, country clubs, and other organizations.
For the past eighteen years, we have brought that same marketing experience to our authors and their books. We work in partnership with our authors to develop and implement a marketing strategy. Depending on the book, we may create advertising and promotional materials, develop graphics, place and manage social media advertising, distribute press releases, create email campaigns, develop promotional pieces, pursue publicity opportunities, and advise authors on ways to build awareness and generate sales.
The author is an important part of that partnership as well. We help create the opportunities and provide the tools and guidance, while authors participate in interviews, podcasts, book signings, events, social media, and other promotional activities.
In other words, we don't simply publish the book and wish the author good luck.
We stay involved.
