#WritersCoffeeClub 15/10: Which of the different marketing tactics you may have tried has been the most successful?
I haven’t tried much…a lot of tactics seem based around series, and I don’t write them and have no desire to write them.
I usually participate in the Smashwords sales since that has enough of a reputation to bring in lots of browsers.
I got lucky on the Amazon algorithm for a while, but that’s over now as per the usual random whim of Zon.
As far as I can tell, my sales mostly come from word of mouth arising from publishing multiple standalone books 🤷♀️
That said, Shepherd (where you provide favourite reads that intersect with your own book) was demonstrably responsible for a brief boost in sales when my favourites list was published.
