My first Ad campaign
I started an experiment after hearing good things about authors receiving easy traction using BookBub. My budget? $50. Timescale? From now until New Year's Eve.
BookBub attempts to match users with books they enjoy reading and introduce new authors based on a reader's disclosed interests and click-through behaviour.
I'll report back once I have more data, but suffice to say, I discovered a lot of authors who write similar books to mine.
In no particular order:
- Amish Tripathi
- Ashok K. Banker
- Axie Oh
- Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni
