Then your solution is
BooksToMarketNow.com, a portal to a unique new company serving the self-publishing author.
Bringing authors' creations through to the consumer, the
BookstoMarketNow.com Programs are designed to move a self-published book into book chains, independent book stores, online book stores, and through to the consumer via marketing strategies, radio interviews and social marketing.

One successful BookstoMarketNow.com launch can set up an author with substantially larger visibility that may in fact attract a publisher for future books."

• "Jackie Lapin's Radio Media Tour outreaching to the self-help market is a blockbuster!
