The contemporary book business has undergone revolutionary changes—the rise of mega-stores, online bookselling, print-on-demand publishing, and ebooks—to name some examples. Yet, until recently, book marketing remained much as it was in earlier days of publishing. But the Internet and accessible image- and video-making technology promoted innovation, and the book trailer came into being.

Many trailer producers are like myself—seasoned authors who are turning their creativity to book-related visual forms. The book trailer is a revolutionary, entertaining, and cost-effective replacement for all those tiring, expensive, and—in terms of sales—often futile book signings and tours. Not only is a trailer a compelling way to market your published book, but it can also bring an added "get-noticed" dimension to your book proposal.

Advantages of a book trailer

A book trailer (similar to a movie trailer) is a lively and budget-friendly way to show off the best features of your book or book proposal. And not only that but, via the Internet, a trailer can reach your potential readership all over the world.

Use a book trailer as:

• a feature of your book promotion campaign if you are already published
• an attention-getting addition to your book proposal if you are shopping around your manuscript
