Power Your Marketing Campaign With Exhibit Marketing

A trade show can really help your sales by hitting the right target audience. Xlibris’ Book Exhibition Marketing service now gives you the power to do so.

Choose from over 20 shows each year at which to display your book and unleash the full potential of your marketing campaign by establishing a physical presence. Combine your book exhibit with the Press Release Service and the Newswire to get maximum exposure for your work.

How It Works  

• Xlibris will create an original and compelling press release that will command media attention and direct reader’s attention to your upcoming exhibit. The release will be broadcast to media outlets and to thousands of interested parties via the newswire.
• At the show of your choice, your book will be assigned a number, either based on its Dewey Decimal subject category at library shows, or based on where it lies alphabetically by publisher at international venues.
• Your book's entry in the exhibit catalog includes the title, your name as the author (as well as illustrator and/or editor where applicable), year of publication, price, ISBN, a 25-word description (feel free to write your own, or our professional copywriters can do it for you), and citations of awards and/or honors received.
• You can choose between 3 design templates (1 , 2 , 3) for your full-page Black & White advertisement in the exhibitor catalog, and make up to 3 rounds of text corrections to make sure it is perfect.
• Xlibris' information is also gathered and included in the catalog as part of the publisher directory, where all pertinent contact and distribution information is included.
• This information is also available online, in a live, searchable database and archived for up to one year.
• Your book will be displayed along with other Xlibris titles in a prime position on the exhibit floor.
• Your book will be displayed face-out on the shelf.
• Official report and PDF of the exhibit catalog can also be found online for up to one year after the event.
