Marketing Loft [Public] / Re: Article: No one buys books
« Last post by Matthew on Today at 12:53:33 PM »Interesting write-up, hadn't heard of The Trial.
This confirms a few things I suspected, mainly, even the big names hardly earn out their advances, and trad pub wants to spend as little on marketing as possible. The second point is why it never interested me. If I have to do all of the work of building up the audience to begin with, what do I need trad pub for?
The rest of the doom and gloom ... I think we could have expected.
So many interesting tidbits copied into that article. Thanks for sharing, it's worth the read.
