The John 3:16 Marketing Network
For the past couple of years, I have had the privilege of being one of many authors in the John 3:16 Marketing Network. When
I was a ”newbie” marketing my books I struggled…”floundered” is a
better word, in getting the word out there about my books. I STILL
do! But praise God for the John 3:16 Network of authors. From the
moment I became a member I have been whole-heartedly encouraged by a
great group of Christian authors who share the common goal to reach
others for Christ through our books. The thing is for us to reach that
goal, people actually need to pick up
our books and read them, and that’s where the John 3:16 Marketing
Network comes in. It’s authors helping authors through the use of
online social networking to help with book launches and promotion.
But it goes beyond that. We are offered techniques and tips to help us achieve “Best Seller” status on Amazon.com Achieving “Best Seller” status is not only incredibly encouraging to an author, but it elicits even more public interest in the book. In my case, with the help of the Network, I not only achieved best seller status on Amazon.com with my second book, Heal the Wounded on the day of its launch, but I garnered renewed interest in my debut novel, Shoot the Wounded, so it climbed to #1 on Amazon.ca !
I can’t tell you how excited I was to see that! More recently the Network has been looking at other ways of promoting the au
thors
and their books. Lorilyn Roberts, founder of the John 3:16 Marketing
Network with the help of a few others put together a great promotional
book: Taste and See, A Sampling of First Chapters by John 316 Marketing Network
Authors As one of the contributors I was delighted to participate in this innovative project.
May 7 – 14, the John 3:16 authors will be hosting a Giveaway Blog Hop where our readers can go from blog to blog and win some great book prizes and more. We’re also going to offer a chance for subscribers to our blogs to win one of TWO Kindles! More details to follow as we get closer to the date.
