About Keiki

I’m a writer, web designer and chaser of the wonders of our great God.  I help Christian authors, publishers and other organizations develop, focus, promote and grow vibrant social media platforms while having a blast doing it. The secret to a healthy social network is based on  a proven publicity method, I call the P272 formula.

Authors, publishers, writers conferences and other faith based organization excel in growing their influence, brand and platform by engaging others with ministry in mind. When this is the focus, praise is inevitable and Proverbs 27:2 promotes quality publicity.

There is a difference between advertising and publicity. Both are techniques to gain media exposure and both have advantages and disadvantages. Advertising is purchased exposure for a product or service. Publicity is the generation of word-of-mouth or testimonial or interest in a product or service. Generating grass roots publicity for an author’s work, a publishers catalog of books, a writers conference attendance or other organization faith based product or service takes time but the results far outweigh any investment in advertising.

In today’s publishing landscape, Christian authors are required to market themselves more than ever before. I help Christian authors first engage in social media, develop a growing community of readers and  maintain genuine interaction with their readers.

Bio

If you say to me “Tell me about yourself,” my short answer  is ‘I’m a garden variety blood-bought daughter of the living, loving Most High God attempting to practice three person teaching.’ Yes, that’s about it, me in a nutshell. But for more detail, read on.

After leaving the corporate world in 2010, ending a twenty years of experience with a large Telecommunications company, I pursued a freelance writing career. Since then, I’ve published hundreds of articles as a contributing columnist on various online media outlets including BlogCritics.org, CBN.com, Examiner.com and EverydayChristian.com.

In 2008, I launched The Vessel Project, a website to showcase Christian authors, emerging authors, and articles of interest for those who love Christian books. It features articles about  New and Upcoming Releases in the Christian book market, Book Reviews by a select group of writers, free Christian ebooks and various series articles of interest.

In June of 2011, I became the Update Editor for The Writers View II (TWV2), an online writers group where authors, editors, agents, publishers, and freelance writers offer their time and talent to emerging authors. If you are an emerging author, I would highly recommend this online resource. It operates much like a Christian writers conference except it is entirely online.

I have a growing passion to help authors engage and develop a vibrant, healthy social media platform and enjoy themselves while doing it.  At keikihendrix.com, I publish articles on social media, blogging, and writing. These articles are drawn from my experience in coaching others in social media, blogging and web design.
