.MARKETABLE COVERAGE• Your readers want to be included in the book.
• Your readers want to know what they are spending their money on.
• Your readers want a product that is high-quality, reflects their lives and feels different than last year.
• Theme can help you do all of this.
.REPEAT AND REFLECT• Good themes inspire coverage in two ways:
– Repetition (of theme words or synonyms)– Reflection (of the concept in angles of coverage)
• The key to product recognition lies in repeating and reflecting the concept and related ideas.– The theme should be repeated inside the book and reflected
in our marketing.
