THINKING STRATEGICALLY ABOUT YOUR AUTHOR PROFILE ONLINE


BRANDING & DIGITAL STRATEGY

This is for authors who already use online platforms but want a more focused and strategic approach to their online activity.

Our trainers will show authors how to become more savvy about how they, their books and their author brand is represented online.

 

The key components of this course are:

  • Undertaking a personal audit of your existing web presence

  • Understanding the different online audiences and what you want from each of them

  • Identifying your author brand and expressing it online

  • Nurturing and leveraging a diverse online network

  • Embracing the revolutionary relationship with your readers

  • Your essential online toolkit – controlling time, cost and success factors

GROUP TRAINING

This offers focused training on a key topic over a full day. It’s a terrific way to demonstrate author care, showing your authors strong, practical support from their publisher. And it provides an opportunity for your authors to share their experiences and to learn from each other as well as from the trainers.

1:2:1 COACHING

Individual coaching sessions are tailored to match the needs of a particular author and are perfect for when you need fast response training. Focusing on one author allows our trainers to provide lots of targeted help. We will marry up the industry expertise of our trainers with the specific needs of your authors to ensure that they get the most out of the session.

Getting the most out of your learning outcomes

We use training best practice to evaluate the ways in which learning changes perceptions, attitudes, knowledge and skills.

PRE-COURSE ASSESSMENT

A pre-course assessment form will be provided to the attendees to determine any learning or mobility issues that our trainers need to consider.

POST COURSE EVALUATION

A post-course questionnaire is completed following the session to evaluate if their learning objectives for the course were met.

RETURN ON INVESTMENT REPORTING

A follow up evaluation, typically six weeks after the course, will be conducted with the attendees – to measure how they are putting the knowledge gained from the course into practice.
