For Newbies and Anyone Else Planning a Launch Part 2


Checklist of Requirements for Book Launches on the John 3:16 Marketing Network

These requirements need to be in place before you set up a launch.

1.    You have five good reviews on Amazon if your book launch is taking place on Amazon (three, four, and five stars, and at least one four or five-star by a member of the network).

2.    You have the inside-the-book Amazon program set up for your book on Amazon.

3.    Your book is competitively priced.

4.    You have been a member of the John 3:16 Marketing Network for 45 days.

5.    You have helped at least two other John 3:16 authors on a book launch or showcase—for example, you have interviewed or posted a blog about an author, done a book review for an author, provided a free gift for a landing page for an author, or something similar (it must be more than just posting Facebook and Twitter announcements).

6.    Your email is set up on the John 3:16 Marketing Network forum to receive daily emails or condensed emails once daily. Receiving special notices only makes you an inactive member and ineligible to host an official book launch through the network. You may change your settings and then wait 45 days to announce an official book launch.

7.    You have read the book How to Launch a Christian Best-Seller in the last three months to refresh yourself on the proper steps to launching a book through the network.

8.    Your book is professionally edited.

If the above requirements are met, please send me an email letting me know you have met the requirements, and the date you would like to launch. Make sure you pick a week that is not already taken and post your book launch on the calendar on the forum. Please let me know the name of your book and if you plan on having a landing page on which you will be offering free e-gifts. 

If there are any issues with the above requirements, please email me so we can discuss it before you officially announce your launch on the forum. Thanks for your attentiveness to these details, and I hope this helps everyone to get off to a good start when hosting a launch through the John 3:16 Marketing Network.


Newbie’s Guide to Social Networking Part One




Set up a blog. The easiest and cheapest (free) to do is to set up a blogger account. Go to www.blogger.com

After you set up your blog, which should only take a few minutes, you want to add a follow button to your blog. This is very simple to do. On your blogger dashboard will be several different items you can add to your blog. First, click on layout, and then click on gadgets. Here is a screen shot of some of the items you will see:



Look for the option “followers.”  Click on that. Plug it into one of the places where it gives you an option to add a gadget. Now you will be able to capture followers to your blog as people visit your blog. Also, be sure and click on followers for the John 3:16 blog at http://john316mn.blogspot.com and follow us.

Now that you have your “follow” button set up, you want to add a couple of the John 3:16 widgets to your site. Here is a screen shot for the John 3:16 Marketing Network Blog widget.


You will notice under the widget on the right side the words “get widget.” Click on that and it will bring up an .HTML code. You take that code and copy and paste that into the option for .HTML/Java Script after going to layout and clicking on “add a gadget.” It will take you to a screen shot like below (you might have to click down the page a little bit).




Again, you click on .HTML/Java Script, and then you cut and paste in the code from the John 3:16 Marketing Network Blog widget. Click save, use your mouse to move around your new gadget if you don’t like where it’s appearing, save your blog again, and then you will now have the John 3:16 Marketing Network Blog widget on your blog. Since we created the widget, the widget has appeared over 100,000 times all over the Internet on various member blogs. That’s what networking does, and that is the power of networking.

You will notice we have other widgets on the John 3:16Marketing Network Blog, including the “countdown to launch” widget. Please feel free to share as many of the John 3:16 Marketing Network widgets on your site as you wish.

Please notice on the top left-hand side of your new blog a “share button.” If you click on that, you will have an option to share the page on Facebook or Twitter. If you want to share a specific blog and not the page, click on the title of the blog article and it will only share that specific article.

Be sure and post your first blog. I would recommend that you post at least every other week. Don’t know what to post? Think about who your target audience is. If you write Christian romance, perhaps you might write a book review about a Christian romance book. You might like to feature one of our John 3:16 Marketing Network romance authors on your blog. Just think about what you could post to attract followers, remembering content is king.

You can also announce your new blog on the John 3:16 Marketing Network forum. Many of the authors in the network will visit your site and start to follow you, and you will be well on your way to building a social networking platform.
