Packed with brilliant information!

I'm a fiction author, looking to start selling not only my print books directly to readers but also some products I hope they'll love. Merchandising for Authors gave me loads of ideas, not only in terms of possible products but also around the possibilities for researching them and marketing them. What was particularly useful was the five questions we need to ask ourselves before going ahead with any potential product. I highly recommend this book and also recommend you have a notepad to hand. I took tons of notes! The recording itself was flawless and narrated with care and enthusiasm.

I was given a promotional code to be able to download this audiobook, however this has in no way affected the comments made here.
