I’m not really sure how to grow your newsletter and keep the subscribers. Joining a free or discounted book giveaway may help, or taking part in social media parties or blog hops perhaps?
I love seeing recipes, but that’s because I love to cook. Also, I miss New Orleans.
I don’t like Rafflecopter either. I can’t remember the last time I tried it but I didn’t understand all the information they wanted. Some of these things want your life history. I don’t mind email address as you can’t do anything without that. I have also followed alot of my authors on Twitter and Instagram but I don’t know how to post any photos on Instagram. Like I said eariler , computer illiterate and technologically challenged. lol If someone can help me with these issues I may actually get something worthwhile posted. Thank you.
I hate rafflecopter—they want so much information—I won’t do it—but maybe a lot of people do so don’t go by what I feel
I think you may reach more subscribers by having us share more posts of your wonderful books with a link to join our fun group. Or have flash giveaways of cheap stuff or ebooks. What about rafflecopters?
Evetrything cost so much money—are you making am mint on your books? I know you do book fairs, etc and I think it is too expensive to do a $50 gift card—just ask your members to share the info every so often.
I have been a member i think more facebook presence posting pics of your pup and things like that. Also when another of your books come out go on tour and then when you do those online tours people get more acquainted there are several more things that can be done but they might cost a bit of money such as the above . Like sign up for writerspace and give away 10 amazon a month or things like that fresh fiction etc.. thanks and have a good new year and much luck getting more people ,..
Cross promotions with a group of authors who don’t mind sharing their readers with other authors. I like to read anthologies with my favorite author in it and often find new authors to follow that way too.
I do love travel pictures, especially how they relate to the writing.
I can’t think of anything new to add. A blitz campaign on social media may be the way to go.
Share the gift card giveaway everywhere. Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Pinterest and anywhere else you can. Each like, share, comment and subscribe gets you entries. Lots of people will subscribe for a change to win a gift card, I know I would.
From what I’ve seen the best way to grow newsletter followers is to post on Facebook offering a gift card as a prize for all participants who like, share and subscribe to the newsletter. I’ve seen $50 Amazon gift card contests get thousands of entries.
I have signed up for your blog. I always enjoy reading your newsletters. I like to see photos of family and pets and scenery where you live. I enjoy reading about what you are currently working on and where you got your ideas.
Love the pictures of Max and would like an occasional recipe from Nawlins. Selling your book—just make sure dummies like me can share the book info that you put out!!
I am glad to have the holidays behind us and on to a brand new year with new opportunities and adventures to have.
I love giveaways!
Could you use Facebook offering a short story with sign up? I like the newsletter and also hearing about your puppy.
Linda,
I wasn’t sure if I was signed up for you Blog or not so I signed again. Just in case there is a duplicate. I don’t know how to check that. lol Yeah I know, computer illiterate.
