Self-publishing a book is something that requires
balance in all aspects.

• Self-publishing a book is something that
  requires balance in all aspects.  It requires
  good promotion and marketing for a book to be
  known in the market and therefore, increase its
  sales.  But how could you have a well-rounded
  marketing plan if you have limited sources?  Most
  self-published authors would have to work with a
  limited budget.

Maximize the internet

• You can start talking about your book in blogs. 
  You can also start joining discussion groups
  about books.  There are readers and book
  enthusiasts that are eager to discover good
  self-published book.  There are different
  websites that posts book reviews online.  You can
  ask them if they would like to do a review of
  your book.

  rated and promoted at the same time.
• But you have to remember to be conscious when
  posting about your book, you do not want to sound
  fresh out of the Yellow Pages.  You can answer
  their inquiries and at the same time provide some
  information about your book.  You can even create
  your own website.

Attend writer conventions, conferences, and other
events

• Another cost-efficient way to promote your book
  is to attend writer conventions, conferences, and
  other events.
• Just make sure that you would have business cards
  with you and ready to take contact information
  for possible contact people.
• If you feel that there are no conventions or any
  events that you can go to, then why not bring the
  event to you and your book?  You can organize
  book talks, whether it is a small or a big event,
  the important thing is that you have done
  something.
• You can talk to colleges and libraries if it is
  possible for you to host readings or local
  literary events.  You do not have to spend a lot
  of money to host activities.

5
Write a press release

• Another easy marketing tip the self-publishing
  authors could do is write a press release.
• A press release should contain the description of
  the book, written in a way that would draw the
  interest of different media outlets.  If you have
  no experience in writing press releases, then
  there are many websites that could help you write
  press releases.

6
Use the power of online distribution

• Do not underestimate the power of online
  distribution, you can have your book in Amazon or
  any other similar websites.  This would help you
  promote your book.

7
Ask friends and relatives to read and promote
your book

• Also, do not forget that nobody could spread the
  word faster than friends, relatives and family. 
  Make sure that they read the book and promote it
  for you.  News spread fast. Click here to find

Have a business card anywhere you go

• Another fact is that there are some people who
  are very excited on knowing that you are an
  author, so they would buy a book and put it into
  their shelves and actually say that they know the
  writer.  There is nothing wrong in taking
  advantage of that way of thinking.  So make sure
  that you have a business card anywhere you go. 
  Also include the book information in your book,
  so they would get the idea that you are an
  author.
•  
• Marketing and promotion is not something that you
  can do successfully overnight.  Whether you are
  into self-publishing your book or a publishing
  house is doing it for you, nothing is wrong if
  you would be promoting your book.  You would also
  have to remember that promoting a book is
  something that would require patience,
  persistence and enthusiasm.
