If you are an author, and you're trying to sell a book that you just completed I'd like to recommend that you sign up to talk to as many groups as possible; anyone that we'll hear you speak.
Even a small group with just a few people of five or 10 is worth talking too.
Let me explain why; you see, you will get experience fielding questions and giving your speeches.
It's also a very excellent opportunity to set up a tripod and videotape your speech.
If you use the proper resolution you can put these videos on YouTube.
You can also put them on your website, which will help you sell books and convince potential book buyers that you know your subject matter and you know it very well.
Some authors are smart enough to do this already, and yet, I always recommend that they tape every single talk they ever give.
Each time you may deviate slightly or you might be asked a different question.
Sometimes you can break down the question-and-answer period and make small little video clips that work perfectly on various websites where you might be trying to sell your book.
Having an arsenal of different videos about your book and the subject matter that you are speaking about will help you very much in establishing yourself as an expert on the topic and bring more interest.
Best of all, if just one of those videos goes viral on the Internet in various social networks online you could find yourself selling hundreds of books out of the blue.
Perhaps in a few days or so the orders could start piling up.
When that happens it is a wonderful thing, and it will inspire you to start your next book.
So please consider all this.
