Recently I took out an amazon book discovery ad for newly-published and overlooked books.
The ROI was zero.
The $15 dollar cost was nothing to cry over. Yet, in the grand scheme of things that money could have been used to gift my e-book to five potential reviewers for reviews, in-which I'm in desperate need of.
As I reflect on my decision, it had me thinking did I make a rookie mistake? I rarely see in these threads my fellow authors talking about coupling their ENT, Bookpub, or FussyLibrarian promotion with a kindle board advertisement for greater exposure.
Does the smart money avoid using kindle board advertisements?
Was I promoting my novel in a place where the readership as long sailed off, and all that is left is like minded people like myself. Authors who are looking to promote their product, and become visible, more then they are looking for the next great book to read?
