“Our first CTA is usually for another purchase: either the next book or a bundle of multiple books. After that we’ll have a call to join our e-mail list in order to get upcoming books free or at a discount.

Somewhere in there we usually try adding a request for the reader to leave a review for the book they’ve just read.”
