A serialized fiction growth-hacking technique for fiction writers
Interesting article, my friends.

A serialized fiction growth-hacking technique for fiction writers
Most book marketing tips and strategies are for non-fiction authors. When publishing experts are asked, “well what about fiction writers,” the answer is usually, “um, I don’t have experience with that, but it should work too.”
Here’s how to sell books: build a platform and an email list.
BUT HOW?!
Usually by giving away a lot of free stuff or some free books.
BUT WHAT IF I ONLY HAVE ONE BOOK?!
Then you’re screwed.
Or maybe not.
Here’s a trick you can use.
1. Offer the first chapter for free on your website.
Make it immediately available, without any barrier or sign up required. Don’t ask them to buy or give up their privacy until they’ve had a chance to test your writing. People buy from people they know, like and trust – don’t ruin your chance for them to get to know you by asking for a sale too early.

When not writing books, she can be found daydreaming about faraway places, enjoying a cup of coffee with the dwarf, sharing a laugh with the moody dragon (when he's in the mood) and sitting on a rainbow of treats with the pink pixie.
