I made 4 of my books free, including book 1 of my sci-fi series, and then marked the others down 25%.

A little bit of both. Actually, it was more like 5% sales from my personal marketing, and 95% from people just browsing the catalogue of participating books that Smashwords has. I say that because as soon as the catalogue went live, sales started flying in.

I hope you enjoy it. If you do, please recommend it to others.
