Person to person ripple effect (or how 3 separate timeline/events lead to a 4th opportunity for publicity)
Even though my book, A Pebble To Polish, still has limited distribution (primarily Amazon.com)- I am already learning how one small event can lead to something bigger.
Neighbor (A) hosts a small book club meeting having participants read my book from which neighbor (B) decides to reads book.
Different neighbor (C) reads my book, recommends to acquaintance (D) in neighboring county. Acquaintance (D) arranges to have me speak at a county library event (E) County library system (F) purchases 9 books for their system. Newspaper (G) does small interview regarding event.
Neighbor (B) loves book and encourages school (H) to invite me as guest speaker to 750 students.
Reporter for a multi-county parent magazine (I) sees article in newspaper (G) about event (E). Reporter (I) then hears about and comes to event (H) to do an article for (I). More ripples pending!
Confusing?
