About Me |
|
I quickly learnt, when prompting people to buy my own books, that the most common response from friends, colleagues and blog subscribers was "I can't wait to get myself a copy just as soon as I get paid." In 99% of cases this translated as, "I can't wait to get myself a copy, but probably won't because a) Martin Amis has just released a new book I'd much rather read or b) I'll forget and blow any spare pennies on beer." Unless you are a very pushy salesman or saleswoman who's constantly carrying a box of books under your arm you won't be selling a copy of your book to the majority of people you mention you book to, let alone blog subscribers who you have never meet face to face. This is where the EditRED 'My Bookshop' comes in. The 'My Bookshop' feature was designed so that anybody who views your profile or reads any of your work on EditRED will be prompted to a) buy your book or eBook or b) read uploaded excerpts or book reviews, whereupon they will be prompted once again to buy your book. Once you have uploaded your book cover and blurb adverts for your books are automatically and strategically placed on all your EditRED content pages, meaning blogs, stories, poems, excerpts etc. Remember, it is much easier to get somebody to read a free short story than it is to get them buy a book by a relatively unknown author. It is also much easier to sell a book to somebody who has just enjoyed one of your short stories or blogs, which on EditRED is exactly when we will prompt them to buy your book. Authors at Edit Red work to promote their free, short content, Edit Red then takes over and works at selling their books for them. We place professional, dynamic adverts for your book at the end of all your uploaded writing. The EditRED 'My Bookshop' feature leaves you free to write and promote shorter pieces that are then used to sell more books. But the best part of the 'My Bookshop' feature is the selling options. You can sell your books either by linking directly to your book content pages on major retail sites like Amazon and Barnes & Noble, or, using your own Paypal account (so all money goes straight to you) you can sell direct to your readers. Selling direct means you have to handle packing and shipping (which you charge for) but also means you make more money as you bypass Amazon's 55% commission. Edit Red has the tools to help writers promote their work and sell their books. Read one tried and tested book promotion tips here. Basic membership is free. The 'My Bookshop' feature is part of the 'Author Plus' membership. Click here for FREE membership and to learn more about how Edit Red can help you sell more books.. |
