One reason why you should post to BookBarista (blog entry)
There are many reasons that I can think of why authors, book sellers, and sellers of book related items should post an ad with us. But one of the “major” reasons is due to the flexibility of the site. What I mean by this is the fact that a poster can place multiple links to their product’s location within a single ad.
Here’s an example – let’s say you are an author of a book that is located on Amazon. That’s a strong location. But Amazon does not allow you to post all of the other locations where your book may be, such as at Smashwords, Kobo, your website, or a local bookstore. Amazon is not a classifieds site or a directory for your book. It is an online presence that is in the business of selling your book (a corporate bookstore). And it must isolate itself to create as many sales possible through its portal. Therefore no other website that sells your book will be welcome on Amazon. This is standard competition. And that’s healthy.
The beauty of BookBarista is your ability to offer customers multiple links to your book’s location within a single ad. If you want to garner more sales from your personal website or a local bookstore you can post only those links into your ad if that is your current marketing strategy. If you want every available carrier in your ad then you can do that as well. We welcome links. We allow you to offer your customers a choice when it comes to where they can buy your work. That is healthy competition at it’s finest!
Now is the time to quit dreaming and to get moving. How bad do you want to sell your book? Do you have dreams of quitting your “real” job and writing full time? Then utilize BookBarista and get your work out there. No one will do it for you. Make us a part of your book’s marketing plan and post an ad with us. There is nothing to lose. Can you go wrong with FREE? What? No way! Another reason to post with us… FREE! I need to stop now. I may go off topic and start blogging all of the reasons why you should post an ad with us. Suffice it to say, we are here for you
