Marketing a Book Series with Kristina Stanley
Manage episode 441696408 series 1183726
The Holy Grail for many authors is to write a popular book series where readers of book one go on to read book two and so on. Writing a popular book series provides many marketing advantages, namely that your advertising is far more profitable.
But writing a series is also risky. Generally, you can only sell subsequent books to folks who purchased, read, and enjoyed the first book in the series.
For some authors, writing books in a series has shackled their otherwise good books to a relatively unappealing freshman effort.
So, how do you know if your book is a good fit for a series?
In this week’s episode, you’ll hear from Kristina Stanley, best-selling, award-winning author and the founder of Fictionary.co. We discuss
- Two types of series
- How to know if your idea can sustain a series
- Strategies for release and promotion of books in a series
Listen in or check out the blog version of this episode to learn about the many marketing advantages a completed series provides and how you can write a successful series.
