As an author and small business owner, book PR/marketing expert A.G. Billig is constantly juggling her own writing and marketing along with managing her Self-Publishing Mastery website. She’s found that blocking out time for writing every day and staying organized allows her to maintain a productive writing schedule. Everyone has 24 hours in a day, she says, so it’s just about planning and prioritizing. If you are writing your first manuscript, Billig advises focusing on just the writing until your first draft is complete. Then start thinking about your book marketing strategy as you finish your revisions and prepare for publication.

For authors that are trying to market published books while also working on new writing projects, Billig recommends carving out just a small amount of time each day for book marketing. Even 15 minutes a day will help you make progress in building a readership. Most importantly, Billig advises authors to choose just 2 or 3 key channels to focus your marketing efforts, and to automate as much as you can to save time.
