Collaboration and community in your marketing

Learn how to collaborate with fellow creatives!

Collaborating with others and creating community around your work are great ways to market your writing. They are also often amongst the most fun and rewarding elements of your book marketing.

Join Communications specialist, Anna Caig, as she leads this session on looking at practical ideas for how to identify people or organisations to collaborate with and the sorts of activity you might propose.

We also look at how to create a community of readers around your work, moving away from the old-fashioned ‘broadcast’ style of marketing into more interactive two-way relationships with readers, where they become active partners helping you spread the word about your writing.
