Using the BAR Approach To Market Your Book

I’ve been a fan of Jonathan Fields for some time. His book Career Renegade: How To Make a Living Doing What You Love is a must have for those of us wanting to live and work according to our own dream-map as well as by our own rules.

Recently Jonathan launched Tribal Author, a blog/community for those authors who see traditional publishing as a complete waste of time. It’s for authors who want to build a community (tribe) around their ideas…kind of like what I’ve proposed here.

Building a blog around your main idea is the first step in creating your tribe or following.  Got a killer idea?  Absolutely sure it’s gonna light the world afire?  Go for it!

If you’ve got a book simmering on the back burner and perhaps aren’t sure whether to shop it around to publishers or go to Lulu or some other Print-On-Demand outlet, give Tribal Author a look.

Jonathan’s got some free downloads for you, too. An eBook and an awesome mindmap that looks at 8 power bases for Tribal Authors.

Check it out! I think you’ll be glad you did.
