Did you know that less than 1% of readers on Amazon go to the trouble of posting a review? Even when they love a book? So when you see a positive review posted for your book, what should you do? For crying out loud--THANK THEM!
I go to Amazon about once a week, look at the recent reviews, click on the comment button and I write something like this: "Thanks so much for your great review. Good Reviews are like gold to authors here on Amazon! If you'd like to be on my private list of readers for the next book, contact me: rp@rpdahlke.com"
I thank the 5 and 4 stars, and many times I thank the 3 star reviewers too--hey, I write entertaining genre fiction, not literary fiction, and if I tickle a reader's funny bone, I'm happy.
AND, If the reviewer is someone who has taken the time to write a really nice one, I offer to put them on the list to get a pre-published book. Why? Because, getting reviews up on Amazon when the book first comes out will help that new book start getting sales right away.
