Cross-posted on Boxcar Marketing …
This Sunday was the 2008 AGM for the Association of Canadian Publishers. I moderated the first professional development session of the day, which was a panel discussion on online marketing.
The panelists were:
- David Caron, co-publishers of ECW Press
- Lynn Henry, publisher of House of Anansi Press
- Rick Wilks, co-founder and director of Annick Press
There were several interesting sites mentioned in the session that I’ll post here for audience members interested in following-up on those discussions. I plan to post some notes about our session too.
