Not only do you want potential customers to know you exist, but you need to let the book industry know you exist! That’s where you can get A LOT of traction for spreading the word.
Remember the Google search I talked about the other day? Do that! Do a Google search for how you think people will find your book. Like for me, it’s “clean dystopian sci-fi novels for teens”. When I searched that, the top 3 hits after Amazon were book reviewers. I followed their IG page, subscribed to their newsletter, checked out their YouTube and added a note for me to start talking to them on IG. I’ll make it a point to comment on their IG posts every week so I can build a relationship with them. I want to follow them for a while to see if I actually feel like we’re like-minded. When it gets closer to my release date, I’ll send them a copy of my book to review!
Your homework this week, do your own Google search and start connecting!
