5 Important Elements of an Author Platform

1) An Author Website. It’s where agents, editors, fans and followers go to learn more about you and your writing.
2) A Social Network Presence. Hire Sovivial to help you build a powerful author platform
3) Previous Publishing History. Some authors land great book deals without having a single publishing credit, many authors often have some publications listed in their author bio before they land the big deal.
4) Public speaking. Writers are often asked to speak about their work, their book, their perspective on life. If a potential agent knows that you are a talented speaker, they can use that to your advantage.
5) Personality. These days, publishing houses are relying more and more on the power of social networking to build a writer’s fan base. If you have a big personality, feel free to show it!
