Have you published a well written and professionally edited novel, drama or collection of poems? And you have problems with marketing promotion to sell your books. If you have no budget for publicity, then you are not ready to sell your book, because Nigerian publishers and bookstores do little or no publicity and sell less. But you can sell more. If you are ready, you can sell from 1000 to 100000 copies within 12 months in Lagos city. You should have at least N200, 000 for publicity on TV, newspapers and bookstores. The publicity will make you an instant literary celebrity and you will be seen by over 10 million TV viewers within a week. Just contact me if you have a budget to promote your book., PLEASE, if you don't have a budget, I cannot help you. Again, no badly edited books. Contact me on Nigerians Report via Google. My target this year is to promote a book or books that will revive the reading culture in Nigeria and I believe we can sell up to 1, 000, 000 copies of a thrilling Nigerian novel in 12 months. It can be done. We are going to sell books as we sell Coca Cola or Omo to consumers.

N200k is just too much. Wrote THE BLACK BOOK and looking at ways to bring it into the country.

I don't think 200k is too much, maybe even too small. I am thinking at least a million naira.

Okay Myne...but tried this in Nigeria? Been thinking of ways to market in Nigeria...know of any that has worked for you? Was thinking of serious authors like you n I coming together to form an initiative with the singular purpose of selling books for us the generators. Got some hot ideas already. Do hola...

I don't live in Nigeria right now, and currently selling mostly in Lagos.

with the decline in reading culture and qualitative publishing in Nigeria, you don't expect home based writers like us to raise such amount. we should think of a way to improve the reading culture in Nigeria. unless you can share the tips with me. I will be grateful cos I need to publicize my publications.

pls i will like to do business with you we have a lot of books to push
let me know best way to reach you. my twitter handle is @DosuGideon
