Linda Barnett-Johnson Finds Frugal Book Promoter a Help with Her Book Tour
The second edition of my The Frugal Book Promoter was recently reviewed on Amazon by Linda Barnett-Johnson and I thought I'd use it as an occasion to remind subscribers and visitors to this blog that this multi award-winning book makes a lovely gift for any author or aspiring author because it's a gift that keeps giving, keeps contributing to his or her writing career. This review makes it clear that it is one of those books one can keep referring to again and again.

Reviewed by Linda Barnett-Johnson, originally for Amazon
I am always in the market for books on helping my author clients in promoting their books. The Frugal Book Promoter is one of those books that I bought. What I like about this book is the easy format; table of contents; easy to find categories; how-to’s and much more.
I love the word “frugally” because that in itself is what I am. I don’t have the big bucks to buy ads or other marketing strategies. I like giving my authors reliable information and tactics without them having to pay high dollar for it.
I was interested in the social marketing and blog marketing and “The Frugal Book Promoter” was there to help. Since I have never done a “book tour” before, it was easy to read and follow. I had my first book tour in March.
There are many interesting subjects:
Amazon - How to set up your books and much more;
Blogs;
Book launches;
Book tours;
Contests;
E-mail marketing;
Resources and Reviews;
And don’t forget “writing”
Anything from A-Z. She has researched and used her methods and it shows.
There are many quotes and anecdotes from other authors and writers.
If you want your book promotions to go easier, I would recommend her books. I have them all and will use them over-and-over.

IF YOU DON'T ALREADY HAVE THIS BOOK, DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND GET IT
By Morgan St James "MYSTERY LOVER" (California) originally for Amazon.
This review is from: The Frugal Book Promoter: Second Edition: How to get nearly free publicity on your own or by partnering with your publisher. (How to Do It Frugally) (Paperback)
Carolyn Howard-Johnson should be called the "Guru of Frugal Promotion." Her ideas, suggestions and references are absolutely spot-on. I've been referring to this book for promotion of my books ever since I got it. With my 11th book. "La Bella Mafia" due to come out, once again I thumbed through it to find the most important things to put in the Media Kit because promotion for this book will be going to several major outlets in TV, radio and newspapers. You would think by Book #11, including my own book about writing, I'd have it down pat, but every time I refer to "The Frugal Book Promoter" I find new things that will save me money and make my books more visible.
