Sup guys – howzt!!
If you are an author or contemplating on releasing a book, like me, you are forever brainstorming ways of marketing your book.
A while ago, a way to further market books hit me.
The idea was to create an icon which asks or encourages people to take selfies with my books and paste on their Social Media – in this way it promotes them to their social media friends and followers.
I call it the ‘Book Selfie’ icon. You put in the first few pages of your book – ideally after the TOC (Table of Contents).
In the past I noticed traction in book sales after people took pictures with my books (I usually asked) and shared on social media. Their friends would then see it and enquire how to get hold of the book/s!!
Here is how the #BookSelfie looks like:
You can go ahead and try it. Let us know how it goes.
I am open for further ideas on how to solidify this.
