DIY Book Platform is a web-based app that guides authors of all genres & publishing tracks to create a unique platform for their upcoming release. Sections in the app include market analysis, reviews, audience, media, social networking, events, and competitions. Each section is color coded to help authors keep their place as they navigate through the tool, answering multiple choice and fill-in-the-blank questions. Most questions include notes to help the author comprehend publishing terminology and marketing concepts. At the end of the Q&A sequence, the user saves and prints out their book platform, which they can then use to attract an agent or acquire a publisher. Authors intending to do their own book marketing can execute the platform themselves. DIY Book Platform begins beta testing August 4, 2015 and launches September 1, 2015. The app was a year and a half in development and especially created for debut authors and writers who cannot afford a publicist. The user interface is patterned after Oprah’s new website. The app is available as a 45-day pass on the DIY Book Platform web or mobile site for $99. Promo codes are available that allow a 10% discount.
