Blog Tour Reflection: Under Five

Now that I have have had time to process everything that has happened the past three weeks, I think that I’m ready to reflect on my first ever blog tour and how I think it went.

To be honest, I feel it went really well. I had fun creating the guest posts and answering interview questions, and was extremely pleased at the majority of reviews that I received for Under Five. While it’s not flying off of the shelves just yet, there seems to be an uptick in sales and interest in my work.

I had quite a few reservations going into this, and wasn’t sure if I wanted to spend the money. But now I’m really glad I did, and will definitely use Gay Book Promotions again for future releases.

I’m honestly not sure what I would do different next time. I would still do a cover reveal, and naturally go with the tour with review options. The one change I might make is to go with the longest tour. Perhaps I still need to reflect a bit more on that.

To all those who participated, I give my sincerest thanks.

If you are an author, have you ever done a blog tour or used a promotional company. If so, what was your experience like?
