At a recent GWA event, I heard an attendee comment;
“You know, writing a book is like birthing a baby. Just because it takes nine months to birth, doesn’t mean you’re done nurturing it. Now the real work begins – promoting it.
I just wanted to write a book.“

At the end of the day spent in front of the computer banging out words to fill the pages, have you thought of how or where you’re planning on marketing your book?
We are proud to announce a new service UpShoot is offering exclusively to assist Garden Writers with marketing their publications.
Since UpShoot is already linked into the horticulture world of marketing and publishing, this is a natural extension of what we already do to promote new plant introductions.
Case Study: The Nonstop Garden
UpShoot has been promoting Stephanie Cohen and Jennifer Benner’s The Nonstop Garden book published in 2010
by Timber Press.

“For some time I have been looking for someone to help me promote my projects. I was truly lucky in finding “UpShoot’ run by two bright, energetic, and lively ladies in our green industry!!” Stephanie Cohen said enthusiastically.
“They have great skills and real social media depth that I lack. I feel honored to be working with them as they make me feel like a friend and not just another client. They are the fantastic and I certainly rate two thumbs up for UpShoot.”
Jennifer Benner, Co-Author
“In today’s world, you’ll find many marketers without a specialty—selling any old widget. Not UpShoot, they talk the talk and walk the walk.” commented Jennifer Benner.
“True horticulture professionals through and through. They know the industry and how to spread the word about great products, creatively and with integrity.”
