PS I'm aware that most people who follow me on this account could not care less about Pinterest or book marketing. 😂

That's why I hashtag the posts, so you can follow or mute as you see fit.

I'll keep posting on this because I haven't been able to find good nitty-gritty info about promoting books on Pinterest so I'm puzzling it out for myself, & I know that other book people who've lost Twitter as a sales channel may find the info helpful, too.

I want to add that this is not my favourite cover for this book: it's the original cover, it's more than a little dated, it's not aligned with current romance cover trends & it's not to my personal visual taste.

But it's the cover that consistently performs the best on Pinterest.

The moral to that story is:
- It's not about me, it's about the buying public.
- Give the people what they want.
- Experiment to figure out what the hell that is. 😂

Friends, I need to brag for a moment (which I will not do often) but I posted a tiny vieo clip for one of my romance audiobooks to Pinterest tonight, and in little over an hour it's had more traffic than my whole account used to get in an entire month.

It remains to be seen if traffic converts to sales but I might be on my way to bridging the sales gap left by Twitter, which would be a small miracle.

I have a reverse #FollowFriday request.

I'd love to find romance writers on mastodon who talk about writing, at a craft and practice level, or from a business perspective.

Thank you for your recommendations. 🙏 ❤️

Amazing news: I think I have finally cracked the secret how to promote books on Pinterest. I'm not even kidding.

"How many covers can one book have?", you may be asking yourselves.The answer is as many as it takes.

One of the hardest-working authors I narrate for updates her covers at least once a year, sometimes more often, so her books don't look dated (romance cover trends shift quickly) to boost sales. And it works!

You have no idea how much work self-published authors put in to make a go of it, #romance authors especially. I have mad respect for them.

@bookstodon @writers

Being an audiobook narrator puts me in a long-term collaborative role with multiple authors as we promote our audiobooks together.

The biggest lesson I've learned from my authors about promoting books is…

Authors who actively promote their new releases and back catalogue sell more books.

Related question: Can anyone recommend good Mastodon accounts that knowledgeably discuss #BookMarketing & #BookPromotions?

#Thank you!

@wendypalmer Oh, no. I'm sorry your lost those bookmarks. Add "advanced library science degree" to the credentials we all need to get through daily life these days.

I'm afraid I don't have the reach to establish new hashtags. 😂 I've been variously using #BookMarketing and #BookPromotions for now, but I seem to be the only one, so I'm hoping there are other established tags out there if I can just find them!

I'm coming up on a string of anniversaries of romance audiobook releases!

So tell me, authors: what do you do to celebrate your book launch anniversaries? Better yet, what have you done for anniversaries that has boosted your back catalogue sales? (I don't need to buy the audiobooks a cake, I need to sell more copies.)

The Tl;dr here is "Do unto others as you'd have them do unto you."

Credit/tag your partners.

Boost them when they credit or tag you.

It's incredibly simple. It's free. It makes a huge difference. It creates a rising tide that lifts all ships. It's the right thing to do.

*I know this isn't rocket science but I also know most people don't do this. Now you can!
