“There’s an itsy-bitsy-teeny-weeny-yellow-polka-dotted line between
sharing interesting facts about life on Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, etc… and
becoming a self-absorbed egomaniac. The line is blurry at times. Invisible at
others. And there are no real rules to this game.”
~Julie Cantrell
Remember that social media and even
book marketing in general isn’t all about you and your book – it’s about the
readers. If you build relationships with people, they will be more interested
on spending money on what you’ve written. Some of my favorite authors are those
I built relationships with first, and then picked up one of their books, just
because they wrote it – now I’m the first in line when their new books come
out. Building relationships builds sales.
Marketing prompt:
Continue what we started yesterday,
and work on building relationships with readers that aren’t based around you
and your book.
