Book fairs usually attract thousands or millions of visitors eager to purchase books to read next.
Ready to get your book in front of a global audience?
Here’s how this service works:
- We’ll get display space for your book at each book fair.
What’s more, a unique QR code will be placed on the cover so attendees with the CBE Book Fair Buddy app can scan it. This will allow them to add your book to their to-be-read list, share that with their network, and even get linked to reseller sites where they can purchase a copy. - We will set up your PubMatch.com profile.
If you’re interested in negotiating international rights for your books, this website will help simplify the process for you. You can connect with publishers on the lookout for new titles, agents seeking authors, and even fellow writers. We’ll sign you up for a five-year membership and provide a guide on how to navigate and use the website.
If you want to focus your marketing efforts on a specific international book show and get some media exposure on top of that, go for our Book Exhibit - International service instead.
