Sometimes you will need to think outside the box and engage in “guerrilla marketing” techniques when marketing your book in a day. Guerrilla marketing is an advertising strategy in which low-cost, innovative means are used, often locally or with co-ordinated activities in different locales to promote your book.  You can do so by preparing your own book trailer (video marketing), securing sponsorship for your new book on Kickstarter (pledge marketing), running a literary competition to raise awareness of your book (event marketing), book sharing, book hopping and so on.
