Thanks for the suggestion - but it seems that his focus is hard rock, heavy rock. Throughout the 70s, Wings were continually disparaged for being a soft-rock, family-focussed band. |

Just post a picture of your book cover on FaceBook under the blurb text. Repeat the operation every month. When people have the money, they'll buy it. It works for my didactic books. Open another FaceBook account as an author. I have one (Jean-Paul G. POTET, author). All my titles are listed there. When a potential customer wants to retrieve a book of mine, all they have to do is open it. I have a Facebook author page - it helps a bit. One thing that would really help - if a high-profile person (in my case probably a musician) would endorse and share the book on social media such as Twitter. I will be looking into this as an option. There are five Adrian Allans on FaceBook. Which one are you? |

It was a good suggestion to do a video
This is not an unboxing video but a flicking through the pages.

Alternate between a fast and slower speed. Movement. Thanks, yes - it was a bit of a rushed job. I got one more sale. If time permits I will re-do. Sales have now slowed down. I feel I have milked my core audience on social media. Now I need to persuade those who might be sitting on the fence. Sold around £400 of books in a week - but of course that is not profit - as I need to pay for the books and send them out |

No, £400's worth - ie. around sixteen books! |

Thanks, the feedback has been generally positive up to now - surprising how many Wings fans there still are - and I don't just mean the over-50s or over-60s! |

Because online book launches are an important part of book marketing. |
