Find the book that has sold the fewest in all of the ones you’re involved with and as far as possible work through these actions, one a day. And / or use these for any one of your titles.
1. Reach out to similar writers
2. Approach a local TV channel
3. Add a strap line to your email signature. You can remove or replace this later. It’s always good to change them from time to time anyway. Make sure it contains a call to action.
4. Approach a local TV channel.
5. Make sure your Amazon Author page is up to date. Post out a link to it.
6. Post something about the book on a relevant Facebook group. Avoid “Buy my book” but allow that also to be a possibility.
7. Consider a book ad: Bookbub,
8. Contentmo AD
9. Amazon AD,
10. Facebook AD
11. Request reviews via your email list. Not got an email list yet? Start building one. Or approach my Dream Team. Send me some copy and I’ll send it out to them.
12. Request one review – from a friend, family, follower or fan. Send them the PDF or mobi-file we provide as long as we haven’t yet got 50 reviews on Amazon. Don’t worry if they say no. You’ve reminded them that you’re a writer. They may even say yes.
13. Experiment with key words on Amazon that might be relevant to your book until you get to 100-600 books suggested. Make sure your book is included. Now, write some copy for your blog, web site or Facebook page than includes those key words.
14. Promote this book and two others in a physical package. If we’ve published all three we can do the package for you. But discuss it first with us so that we get the price right. You collect the orders at full price and the money, and pass the orders and 75% of the money on to us. If you’re mixing and matching with ones we’ve published and others published elsewhere you can still put off ordering from us if you’re out of stock until your orders and payments are in.
15. The ideal length of a press release text is 400 words and the best time to send to avoid an email crush is midweek, around midday, but at 11.30am or 12.30pm rather than dead on the hour. Adding an image trebles ‘click-throughs’ (readers clicking on links to your website, for example), adding more than one image increases clicks by a factor of six. Headlines should be fewer than 80 characters long and should include superconfident words like ‘confirms’, ‘reveals’, ‘proves’ and ‘launches’.
