On Saturday 31st May thousands of people will gather together for the annual online event Promo Day. This is not your usual writers conference. Promo Day isn't about learning how to write. It's about what to do after you've written.
Many writers struggle with marketing and don't feel comfortable with the promotional side of things. Even those that are comfortable with it can benefit from some new strategies and ideas. That's why Promo Day is perfect for everyone in the industry. A whole day dedicated to promoting, networking and learning!
There are loads of opportunities to promote during the event (both via the event forums and in social media activities) that all attendees are welcome to join. Be interviewed, join in the panel discussions, and more...
Networking is super easy too. Just use the hashtag #PD14 on social media and you'll be connected with all the other attendees and presenters. Not to mention all the networking fun that happens in the forums themselves!
You'll have the chance to learn from industry experts in the free presentations that are available throughout the day. 14+ presenters sharing info, tips, and strategies for free!
Testimonial from last years event
This year there will also be live pitch sessions with publishers during the event. This is HUGE as you have the opportunity to skip ahead of the query piles and pitch them directly one-on-one. No waiting for months to hear if they might be interested. No need for agents or even query letters.

This year a new forums feature has been added to the site to make interaction even more international. There will be special sections for publishers to post their submission guidelines and give information to authors about their companies. Companies offering services (virtual assistants, website designers, illustrators, ghost writers etc…) will also have a section where they can let attendees know more about what they offer.
As if all this wasn't enough, this year you can have your book featured in the onsite bookstore for just €5,00! An opportunity not to be missed. Email if interested in having your book featured.
