hi and welcome to writer's life my
name's Peter and coming up today unusual
ways to get people to read your writing
getting people to read your book can be
a considerable challenge here are some
useful ways to get more people
interested in your writing
first use social media okay so we know
that social media isn't an unusual tip
but it really depends on how you use it
you are an author you are creative you
don't have to promote your book
traditionally instead think of smart
strategic ways to get more followers or
grab people's attention then promote
your book as an aside to that next make
a book trailer creates a trailer for
your book to tell the story visually and
make it appeal to a mass audience your
book trailer will give potential readers
an insight into what the book is all
about we get them excited and intrigue
to read it make sure you include a link
to your book at the end next ask people
to send pictures of them with your book
people love getting involved and feeling
as though they are connected to the
author so reach out to your fans
and ask them to take pictures of
themselves with your book in unusual
locations put these on your website
something fun like this will make your
book seem more popular and could catch
on to boost sales
next creates a competition everyone
loves a good competition and so try to
think outside the box and create a
contest to have potential readers
interested in your work and excited
about reading your book and next give a
talk about it getting out there and
meeting potential readers is the best
way to market and promote your book
think about its themes what would you
give a talk on that is relative if that
doesn't work then settle book readings
at local venues to promote your book and
next tap into book groups book groups
are a great way to get more people to
read your book find book groups either
locally or further afield and offer them
copies of your book to read next sell it
for charity set up a charity fundraiser
and sell copies of your book promising
to give all or part of the funds raised
from sales to the charity if the charity
links in with some of your books themes
even better get it translated but not
selling in your home country why not try
elsewhere get your book translated into
different languages and you could find
yourself a celebrated and famous author
in a foreign country instead include a
gift
everyone loves a freebie so why not
include something cute like a free
bookmark with every copy of your book to
try to boost sales yet video
testimonials people are more motivated
to buy something if they trust that it's
a quality product to make sure you get
as many positive reviews and
testimonials as you can make youtube
videos reading out what people have to
say to capture a different kind of
audience's attention join and discussion
forums if your book has particular
themes then find places online where
people are having relevant conversations
join them and you can promote your book
to an audience that's already invested
in your work keep it local is next take
your book along to craft fairs or
markets even jumble sales you might not
sell thousands of copies at once but if
you start small you never know how big
it could go by following these tips you
can get more people to read your writing
so why not give them a go and don't
forget if you're struggling to write or
finish your book our free rises to King
can help with it you'll learn how to
overcome procrastination stay focused
find time to write and finally get your
book published to get access to it now
