Hello there is Peter here again from

WritersLife.org today how to get more

people to read your book marketing your

book is arguably one of the hardest

things an author has to do for many of

authors while they feel comfortable

writing their stories editing them and

finding the best way to publish them

when it comes to actually getting people

to read their books they come to a

grinding halt the good news is that

there's plenty you can do to promote

your book and find new readers some of

these take considerable time and effort

and you won't always get it right the

first time

some require budgets and others are

simpler though perhaps not quite as

effective so let's look at some of the

things you can try to encourage people

to read your book and for you to find

new readers first describe its well a

good book blurb is your chance to really

sell your books of people that stumble

across it and can make all the

difference between those who simply

carry on browsing and those who click to

buy learn how to make your book sound as

exciting and enticing as possible think

about what makes you decide to read a

book look at other book cover blurbs and

descriptions and gain some inspiration

from their next book clubs a good way of

getting your book more widely read is to

offer it to book clubs there are book

clubs everywhere all over the world some

are virtual and some are local groups

find them contact them and offer your

book for free you could even join in the

discussion or come along to local groups

to talk about it afterwards ask

participants who

to promote it on social media and so

word-of-mouth will start to spread and

next family and friends when you first

publish your book you're confident that

all your friends and family will

definitely buy it and write you glowing

reviews of course after all you've got

over 200 friends on Facebook you'll

practically be a best-seller one day

well unfortunately the reality is that

it is surprisingly often bafflingly

difficult to get them to do it be

persistent with your friends and family

and make sure you ask everyone it's

interesting to discover that those

friends who you haven't heard off from

maybe five years are delighted to read

your book getting your own sister to

read it however is like pulling teeth

next get it into libraries approach your

library and explain you are a local

author and ask if they would be willing

to take a copy or two of your book it

may not be the way to sell more books

but once you are in then it could lead

to many people over the years reading

your book you could leave some cards

promoting your book on the front desk if

you don't ask you don't get

next find your audience promoting your

book is all about finding the right

people to read it the importance of

figuring out who your audience is and

then appealing directly to them cannot

be underestimated take your time to

research your audience who are they

where are they how do they shop what

excites them what turns them on of

waters enough how much will they spend

on a book what time of day are they most

likely to buy a book are they impulsive

or cautious with their purchases do they

live a bargain

what is irresistible to them if you know

your audience inside out you'll find it

much easier to come up with creative way

of reaching them and next freebies let's

face it everyone loves a freebie and one

surefire way to get someone to read your

book is to give it to them for free do a

Goodreads giveaway and you'll be

surprised how many people enter gently

ask if the winners would write you a

review if they enjoyed it

if you've published your book through

Amazon you could offer it for free on

Kindle for a limited period of time if

you do you're likely to see a real boost

in sales which could lead to more people

buy your book even when the free period

has ended there are no miracles or

shortcuts when it comes to getting more

people to read your book and a

combination of persistence and

experimentation is best if you keep

persevering and trying new things

there's no reason why you should see the

sales of your book increase and don't

forget if it's struggling to write or

finish your book our free writers

toolkit can help with it you'll learn

how to overcome procrastination get

organized

stay focused find time to write and

finally get your book published to get

access now while it's still available
