Helping writers become bestselling authors

What’s One Of The Best Ways To Reach Your Readers?

August 4, 2016 by ANGELA ACKERMAN

Hi Everyone!

As many of you know, in addition to blogging about everything writing, I also have a passion for marketing (the good kind, not the shout-y “Buy My Book!” stuff). I know this is an area of struggle for many, but if authors go about it the right way, it’s actually kind of magical how well it works. And it isn’t as hard as you might think.

One of the best things you can do to boost your success is market to your exact reading audience.

AND, one of the really terrific ways to do THIS is to determine WHO your influencers are (the people who already have great relationships with your readers) and build a relationship with them.

That’s why I’m over at Jane Friedman’s blog today, discussing How to Find and Reach Influencers to Help Promote Your Book. So stop in and find out what an influencer is, what you can learn from them, and how to reach out to then and build a genuine relationship that will benefit you both.

(Please feel free to pass the link on to any other authors you know who might also need help reaching their readers, too!)

  7. Glynis Jolly says

    August 4, 2016 at 9:21 pm

    My 3 are:
    Being the victim of a toxic relationship
    Growing up with a sibling with a complicated medical condition/chronic illness
    Living with mental illness

    The category of Emotions Wounds was fabulous. I wish you weren’t retiring it, although I do understand your intentions.

  8. Elli Comeau says

    7, 8, 10

      I mean 7, 8, 0 🙂

  9. Richard Barnes says

    August 4, 2016 at 5:11 pm

    I think there’s a lot of info on the Internet about items 1, 4, 7 and 10. So to the extent that these last three wounds would be situations that have been less examined, I’d suggest numbers 5, 6 and 8.

    Thanks Becca and Angela!!

  10. Loraine Nunley says

    August 4, 2016 at 4:24 pm

    Such a hard choice, only three…but I’m voting for:

    4, 7, and 9

    Can’t wait for the book, got a spot picked out for it amongst the other thesauri!

  14. Colleen McKenney says

    1., 2. and 6.
    A toxic relationship should include parents/ caretakers.

    • Angela D'Onofrio says

      August 5, 2016 at 8:31 am

      Thank you for adding that remark about 2 … I had the same thought.

  15. Karen Sargent says

    August 4, 2016 at 1:12 pm

  18. Rachel Leigh Smith says

    August 4, 2016 at 12:48 pm

    2, 5, and 6. I survived #2 in my late 20’s, and it changed everything about me.

    1, 5, & 7
    being bullied is not new but it’s very much a trending topic now; as an artist, i can’t imagine losing any of my senses!; and possibly extend having a sibling with a disability to include the untimely death of a sibling, as a child or as an adult

  22. DianeJ says

    August 4, 2016 at 12:11 pm

    2, 5, and 6.
