Daastan’s Book Marketing Services

Here at Daastan, we offer a carefully curated Book Marketing service for your book, as we know it deserves. Tried and tested, this marketing plan leads to substantial success. To put it simply, we devise a plan that spreads over a hundred days, which includes 4 twenty-five day phases. Each phase is meant to shed light on one important aspect of the book or author. And best of all, this service is free of cost, acquired when you buy our Annual Membership.

So, what are the Book Marketing phases?

Well, here is a brief summary:

Book Marketing Stages:

The Introduction Phase

The first phase, the introduction phase, is like dipping feet in water. It is a warm welcome of the book into the public world, wherein the book, along with its author, is introduced. The audience is given an insight into the content of the book and the author. If it interests them, their ears are sharpened and of course, they are on the lookout for the countdown or activity Daastan conducts in anticipation of the book release. Check out these following Introduction posts:

Interest Development

Sure, readers know your book exists (or is about to!), but isn’t it important to keep their attention grasped? That is what this stage is designed to do. Through a themed activity, an engaging contest, or the release of the book cover, hype is generated. The audience not only keeps getting reminded of the book, but also becomes a part of it. Furthermore, the author’s journey is highlighted, which creates a relationship between them and the reader. The author is encouraged to share their personal story, walking the audience through their process, along with a photo of themselves holding their book. To top this all off, we post a book blurb bound to keep eyes hooked, as well as a thrilling promotionl video.


Book Release

Perhaps the most vital and exciting stage our Book Marketing Plan has is the book release. During this phase, the book release date is announced the book is released on Daastan’s digital portal ‘Qissa,’ and we begin taking pre-orders. To target an even wider audience and to get readers acclimated to the integrity of the book, copies of the book are sent to bookstagrammers as PR, so they can provide honest reviews.

 


Post Book Release

In order to help boost sales, thematic posters of the book are released. Not only this, but
giveaway is arranged so more and more people feel eager at the possibility of
receiving the book. The audience also gets to know the author through a live session via
social media and a detailed interview on the blog in which the marketing campaign is
also covered. And with this, the hundred days of the marketing plan come to an end.
 
 

What is Daastan’s Book Marketing reach? 

All posts are shared to each of Daastan’s social media profiles, including FacebookTwitter, Instagram, and Linkedin, which adds up to a following of approximately 25,000 people. Offline distribution is coordinated with local distributors with whom Daastan has partnershps, and they ship orders all across Pakistan. Since we only take orders online, we do not distribute to loal bookstores.
So, if you have been considering availing such services, doesn’t this marketing plan sound like the perfect opportunity? All you need to do is hand us the reigns, sit back, and watch your writing career unfold. For any queries, email us at merasawal@daastan.com and we’ll be sure to help you out!
