Suffering from inconsistent book sales?
It's ok! This is common for new and first-time authors, so don't worry! Here are the ways I sold 1000 books in my first year as an author. PLUS, most are free!
Write a book people want to read! I know this sounds silly, but your book isn't for you. It's for your readers. My books are for audiences that already have a large following across the world (Daniel Fast and new moms), so there is always a steady stream of people looking for support on the topics of my books.
Have a marketing strategy. Whatever your method is to market your book, be consistent. Podcasts, guest speaking events, and partnering with organizations are great ways to get consistent sales.
Use your keywords and description to your advantage. Make your book stand out with optimized keywords and make your description scream to your reader that they need to order a copy.
Launch your book instead of just releasing it. Having an actual book launch instead of just publishing is a phenomenal way to support your book's release. This could include a launch party, promo partners, brand partnerships, and more to help announce the arrival of your book baby. Just because you write it, it doesn't mean they're gonna come. So, throw some razzle-dazzle on that thing, and let's introduce your book the right way! (Oh, and don't worry, if your book is already out, you can still do a long-haul launch or relaunch)
Don't wait until your book is out to start telling folks about it! This is a huge mistake that authors make which can have you missing out on sales. Just like the internet aunties we know and love, folks want to hear about your book and the writing process. Share the good, the bad, and the ugly with your audience so they can become a part of the process.
