I swear these guys need to offer affiliate money. LOL But, truly, this is a great VERY CHEAP ($20 or less in a month) way to grow your list of readers. PLEASE take some time to look at these options for Q4 to jumpstart your sales. Group Promos- typically have a landing page like this and each participant agrees to certain days to promote it. I see promos that would be good for every one of you in here right now. I'm attaching a screenshot of what I see and a link to what the landing page would look like. From non-fiction to lgbtq to children's, they have it all. https://dashboard.bookfunnel.com/bundles/board/1e655flbr0 Most of them will want you to set up their Universal Link to make it easy for people to buy. That is this and it's really cool to have if you don't already. https://authors.bookfunnel.com/help/sales-pages/ Author Swaps- generally means that your book will be mentioned in a newsletter and/or socials along with a few others. This will work better if you have a decent sized list so you may want to do some group promos FIRST.

Hi friends, Boost those sales before the holidays by boosting your reach first. In bookfunnels, there are some coming funnels that look good for many of you. Remember, these are for ebooks only.
