To help authors avoid the critical and costly mistakes most self-publishers and self-promoters make, 25-year veteran publisher Linda Radke of Five Star Publications, author of The Economical Guide to Self-Publishing and Promote Like a Pro, now offers personal and group publishing and marketing coaching, promising to let no industry secret go unspoken.

 INDUSTRY EXPERT COACHES AUTHORS INTO SUCCESSFUL PUBLISHERS, MARKETERS

 CHANDLER, AZ– To help authors avoid the critical and costly mistakes most self-publishers and self-promoters make, 25-year veteran publisher Linda Radke of Five Star Publications, author of The Economical Guide to Self-Publishing and Promote Like a Pro, now offers personal and group publishing and marketing coaching, promising to let no industry secret go unspoken.
 
“A poorly published book is like a shabbily printed business card, and no bookseller or buyer will take you seriously if you present them with a book that doesn’t meet the industry’s criteria anymore than a potential client would take you seriously if you presented them with a hand-written business card,” says Radke. “Except you invest substantially more time and money printing a book than you would a box of cards.”
 
Over the years, Radke, who has experience with traditional, partnership and self-publishing, has been inundated with authors seeking publishing and marketing advice, and finally decided to acquiesce and give the writers what they wanted and needed for a very reasonable coaching fee.
 
“It pains me to see authors fail only because they didn’t know what to do or how to do it. They invest their entire savings and a good chunk of time, pouring their hearts into books that may be well-written and interesting but are unmarketable due to substandard production, editing or promotion of the manuscript,” explains Radke, who represents many award-winning authors, as well as being nationally recognized for her own books and publicity campaigns. “All of that can be avoided, and success can be achieved if they just get a little help from someone who has been in the trenches and knows exactly how to make a book marketable.”
 
Anyone who schedules with Radke before January 1, 2010, receives a 50 percent discount on their first coaching session and a free copy of Promote Like a Pro. Contact her at 480-940-8182, info.FiveStarPublications.com or visit Click here to learn more.
