Book Review Reader Magnets by Nick Stephenson

Genre:Nonfiction/ MarketingSynopsis:Reader Magnets are what bring readers to YOU.They're an irresistible force that draw readers in to your author platform - the promise of getting great value content and building a valuable connection. That's what it's all about, after all - making meaningful relationships with your audience and having a direct line to your readers. I started using Reader Magnets a little over six months ago. I didn't even have a term for it back then. Since I put these measures in place, over 15,000 readers have signed up to hear from me about new releases and promotions - all in just a few months. My readers trust me with their contact details for good reason. I give them good content. In return, they buy my books. These guys are my fans. I appreciate every last one of them - and they're the reason I get to write for a living.What Reader Magnets Have Done for Me:- My last email - I made $547 in book sales.- I launch every new book into the top #900 or better.- I don't need to rely on Amazon for an income.- I don't need to pay advertisers to get sales.- I saw my first 1,000 subscribers after just a couple of weeks.- My click-rate is five times higher than the industry average- My open-rate is more than double. How?It's all about getting readers to commit. Get their email addresses. Follow up. Build value. Build your brand.Let me repeat the headline again: I picked up 15,000 new reader email addresses in less time than it takes for most people to write a new book. I got my first 1,000 readers signed up in just a couple of weeks. My click-rates are through the roof. I do this with Reader Magnets - and you can too. Download the e-book to find out how – as well as the ebook edition, you’ll also get:- access to my course “Find your First 10,000 Readers” for free- a PDF edition of the book (in case your e-reader doesn’t handle screenshots well)- the chance to get your burning questions answered at the Reader Magnets community. Here's to your success!My Take:I heard a rumor that Mr. Stephenson is updating the book, but if he did, that update didn't get to me. I got this book about 8 months ago, but as I had other "stuff" in my marketing to do list to get to the point where I could really use this, I was focusing on those bits first.This is a short book (I think it is his own Reader Magnet, and yet there wasn't a "freebie offered at the beginning or end". Strange that he didn't use his own advice.) and at 50 pages it was a pretty quick read. (knocked it out in less than 1 hour. If only implementation would be so quick!)The advice is pretty standard stuff that I have gathered over the years online. The part where I hoped it would be helpful was in the "details" and for me, it was a disappointment. I couldn't follow the step-by-step instructions because the information was out of date. I am in the process of re-launching my first book right before the release of the sequel, so I will be implementing these techniques, but will be on my own to try to figure out how to get it all to work.Hopefully it will. If you are interested in a follow up to see how this worked, let me know in the comments and I will put it on my calendar to do an update three months after the books launch.Until next time,Keep Reading!
