Day 7: 7 Days of Paid Book Marketing #bookmarketing
Many authors I’ve spoken to who have tried Facebook boost reported they made no sales from it. After some experimenting and poking around, I found that most people are not using Facebook boosts to its fullest potential.
See, Facebook defaults to “People who like your Page and their friends.” Seems like a decent selection, right?

There are many companies out there who offer this service, and many of them excel at it. However, one that impressed me the most—enough that I keep coming back as a customer—is HEA Book Tours. I am a big fan of their one day blitz service.
Normally, I’m skeptical of services that say “unl...
