MCBD2019 Sponsors and Book Reviewers: Deadlines Looming!

by

It’s hard to believe our 6th Multicultural Children’s Book Day online and offline celebration is less than two months away.

Things are going at full speed here at MCBD headquarters and we want to make sure two critical deadlines don’t sneak up on our supporters, reviewers, and potential sponsors.

MCBD Sponsorship Deadline is 12/15/18

Sponsorship for Multicultural Children’s Book Day is not only a great way to support this event; it is an excellent way to get your name (and your books) in front of thousands of readers. All of our Sponsors get a name mention within the hundreds of reviews that get posted from December to January 25th and also on the sites of our 24+ CoHosts sites. The deadline for ALL Sponsor sign-ups is 12/15/18. [Read more…]

Facebook for Business and Authors – Thumbs Up or Thumbs Down?

Guest blog post by Susan Mayfield of Reduce the Chaos

With the recent changes on Facebook and the decreased reach for business pages, a lot of business people and authors are re-evaluating keeping a business page on Facebook. Some have made the drastic decision to delete their Facebook business pages or abandon them.

Facebook for authors

Stop! Before you follow them and delete your business from Facebook, you might want some facts to help make a more informed decision. I understand the frustration of the reduced reach on Facebook unless you pay for ads. However, there are still some valid points to having a business page and a quality, active presence. There are also some things that are working for organic reach if you have an engaged community.

Need marketing help for your multicultural children’s or YA book?

by

If you feel like you are shouting into the void when it comes to marketing your multicultural children’s or YA book, we have an idea that just may be the ticket!

Book launches and special author events are a great marketing tool and an excellent time to gain the visibility that is critical to driving traffic and selling books. That’s why MCBD is offering a limited-time chance for publishers and authors to leverage the buzz and reach of our site and social media for their own campaigns.

Our highly successful online event garners HUGE social media share impressions from January 25 through January 27th and the buzz continues all year-long. We also love any opportunity to support diverse book authors while also keeping interesting book-related information in front of our social following and loyal readership.

With that in mind, we’ve created our new Multicultural Children’s Book Day Sponsored Post Package as a way to leverage our robust 260,000 strong social media following and give authors and books the boost they need. 

(option now closed until February 2019)

Sponsored Post Package

Intrigued? We hope so! Our Sponsored Post option is only available Feb-September so don’t delay. You can find examples of Sponsored Post that we’ve recently completed here …
