This ebook discusses how to secure positive reviews and endorsements for your book and how to use them to full advantage. It explains why setting yourself up as an expert book reviewer can help build your author brand and promote your book, and describes how to do so successfully.
In the current digital and social media age, it is essential to seek and secure reviews and endorsements to raise awareness of your book – not just any reviews from anybody, but positive reviews from literary experts in the field and high profile endorsements. There are many pitfalls to avoid in this regard, like responding badly to negative reviews and leaving adverse reviews of other authors’ books. In this ebook, we explain how best to obtain the sort of reviews that are going to work for you and generate more sales for your book.
We discuss who to seek reviews from and who to avoid, as there are plenty of book trolls on the Internet looking to criticize you if you over-engage in self-promotion or word your approach in an overtly self-centred way. We explain how best to approach those likely to provide positive reviews and endorsements by making it easy for them to review your book and spelling out the benefits to them in doing so, and we debate whether you should endorse your own book.
Often, it helps to set yourself up as an expert book reviewer first to lend credibility both to your writing and your reviews. We explain how to achieve this by joining Goodreads and Shelfari, writing good reviews, hosting or being a guest on a talk radio programme and always responding to critics in a respectful manner. A good review travels fast, but a poor review or a bad response to a negative review travels faster.
