Marketing

The publisher has also created a new hashtag, #TheHandSellLive, for the 2019 campaign, which booksellers can use to tag their videos on Facebook and when reposting them to other social media platforms.

At “Carrying Your Digital Marketing Campaigns Across Multiple Platforms,” booksellers will hear from three guest booksellers about how they manage and execute digital marketing campaigns at their stores.

This is the second in a series of three Marketing Meetups focusing on topics related to IngramSpark, the print-on-demand book publishing service and e-book distribution tool.

Participating ABA booksellers will hear from WRBG founder Glory Edim and two participating booksellers at “Marketing the Well-Read Black Girl Book Club,” taking place Thursday, May 9.

At “Carrying Your Digital Marketing Campaigns Across Multiple Platforms,” booksellers will hear from four guest booksellers about how they manage and execute digital marketing campaigns at their stores.

In contrast to the previous two years, #HarperCollinsLovesIndies videos will focus more on hand-selling in 2019 than on store tours. This year’s livestreamed videos will air on Thursdays instead of Saturdays. 

The latest Marketing Meetup hosted by ABA focused on IngramSpark, a print-on-demand book publishing service and e-book distribution tool. 

Here, R.J. Julia Booksellers founder Roxanne Coady shares the history of book subscription service Just The Right Book, along with a humorous bit of customer feedback.

Guest speakers will discuss their respective local author education, marketing, and event programs at ABA’s next meetup.
