Writer, Teacher, Consultant from Orange Co, CA

Hi,

I've just joined biznik, and I'm new to social marketing, so bear with me. It seems to use a lot of time, but I'm sure the benefits will become evident. I am a writer, teacher, consultant. My topic is writing (and other areas of interest).

I've recently published two e-books on writing nonfiction books and one titled "Time Travel for Fiction Writers." These are listed on my website (www.ploegersservices.com), which is running but still being tweaked.

If you have questions about grammar or writing that you've always wanted answering but never got around to asking, let me know. I'll do my best to help. Thanks for reading this. Katie Ploeger

Dear Judy, Thanks for the welcome. Is there a group or something I can join? As I said, I'm new to this stuff, and I haven't really wrapped my mind around the social marketing stuff. I'm doing my blog (katieploeger.wordpress.com) and articles. But social marketing is on my list as step 2. Of course, step 1 has taken me months. Anyway, talk to you soon. Katie

Hi Katherine - I've found a great resource in Mary Pat Kavanaugh. Her business Facebook page is http://www.facebook.com/pages/Queen-of-Social-Marketing/8079208275. You should check her out.

Otherwise there are great resources here on Biznik. I am alwasy learning new and better ways of using the web and social networking here.

Welcome, Jen

Hi Katherine - Welcome to biznik. I thought I'd share a link to an article on how I used social media/networking to promote my own book. There was an investment in time - but the payoffs have been incredible.
