Book Marketing after Publication

Hi Everyone:

This is my first post to this most interesting
group. I have been wondering about the marketing
of books.

Does anyone have suggestions as to the best ways to market a book after publication by a good publisher?

I am a scientist and an informationist that did much editing on the book Pediatric Gastrointestinal Disorders: Biopsychosocial Assessment and Treatment authored by Carin L Cunningham and Gerard A. Banez.

I am not involved in any proceeds for the book, did much editing for a donation to an organization I believed in.

What can I do to make this book, that is important to a niche group, but also to science students interested in pediatrics, psychology or the gastrointestinal system, to become aware of this publication?

It is the best value out there. It is concise, includes historical data, as well as case studies, and belongs on everyone’s shelf interested in this field. The book has been favorably reviewed by review groups and new reviews appear as the book’s use is found successful in practice.

Since I am in the process of writing a book, the aspect of marketing is of interest to me.

My primary work is providing information via the deep web, fee-based databases, and unpublished resources, to those that do not have access or time to sift through information to complete a research project, find ideas for a new product, state-of-the art scientific information, need help with a start-up, or established company.

I worked as a scientist and later as an informationist in the chemical, physical and medical sciences for over 25 years in non-profit,
for-profit, Fortune 500 and smaller private companies.

Thanks much in advance,

Rosa
