Hey guys,
I self-pubbed my paranormal romance book on 9/1. I noticed a peak on the days it came out at different retailers, but sales dwindle thereafter (probably because it's not on the home page anymore). Each day, only a handful are bought. I'm really not complaining about that because I'm just happy that it was found at all, and then purchased. I have been thinking about how to market my book. Here are some of my ideas. I would love your input and any other ideas you may have.
* Going to contact some reviewers and authors (I'm scared and biting my nails to do this!)
* Thinking of running a Facebook ad
I was thinking about whether I made a mistake going through smashwords (I'm on Amazon too, just not Select), and perhaps I should've taken advantage of Kindle Select. I guess I'll never know what kind of response I would have had, had I gone that route.
Thanks in advance for the advice and wisdom...I'm always appreciative!
