We’ve talked before about the importance of good design for your books, and what the elements of good design are.
These elements include not only your books, but also every element of your author platform, from your blog, your Twitter page, your Facebook page, and to your offline marketing materials as well.
When I began my first blog, Ecosystem Gardening, I was building my author platform for the release of my upcoming book of the same name.
I had content. Lots of good content.
But I was embarrassed every time somebody visited my site. Why would I possibly be embarassed?
I Had No Idea How to Design My Site
I did the best I could. I picked colors that I thought went well together. I tried to choose fonts that looked good.
I tried. I really did.
But I didn’t know what I was doing. I had no clue how to design my site so that I was presenting a cohesive message.
It was a mess, and I was embarassed. But I didn’t have to be.
What if there was a way to get help? What if you could learn to design your own site?
There is!
I got help from Pamela Wilson at The Big Brand System. She helped me determine my message, who my audience was, and how to present my site and other materials in a way that reinforced this message.
Pamela Wilson has just opened the doors to her Big Brand System online design course, where she’ll be sharing her design and marketing expertise with us, and teaching us how to get our message across with good design.
If you’re an author, you have enough to worry about with promoting your book, building your author platform, and finding your audience.
Don’t let bad design ruin your message. It’s just too important!
Pamela has just released a free report called Five Ingredient Design Recipes, which is a treasure trove of great “recipes” to get you started.
But I’m not stopping there. I’ve enrolled in the Big Brand System course so that I won’t repeat my earlier mistakes. I want to learn how to design my message so that I’m reaching my audience in the best way possible.
But you need to act fast. Pamela is closing the doors to this great opportunity on Friday. I didn’t want to miss out, so I signed up right away. I’m hoping I’ll see you there!
