I'm starting a free promo stacking suggested by Thomas Umstattd Jr. and Bryan Canter, perfect timing, 1 month after release. Also one of the authors in AuthorMediaSocial suggested who to stick to rather than shotgunning money to everyone. I've had a bookbub ad which reached 16,000 views (all from the UK...) but not downloads. I may do a freebie there, we shall see, and in fact, if one or both of the first do okay, then I'll consider bookbub. The 'new launch' which I can also share on Instagram, FB, twitter, and my personal website.
Claire, this is exactly the mindset I’m talking about: test, learn, adjust, repeat. You’re not treating launch as one moment—you’re creating new discovery opportunities and paying attention to what actually converts.
I especially like that you’re narrowing your spend instead of throwing money everywhere. Please come back and tell us what you learn from this round. Your experience will help other authors here too. Praying for a strong response! 🙏
