Video Testimonial Request
|
I will have a request for you, but first, let me share the results of the Gingerbread House poll. My oldest daughter, who happens to be the only daughter who reads my newsletter, stole the crown from me. Congratz, Grinchy. Down to business. I've been improving my FB ads, and your feedback from the last newsletter helped. In particular, this poll: The Red and Grundle pic was not doing well on FB, so, trusting that you folks know what you like better than FB knows what you like, I created new ad sets. They haven't run long enough for me to have sufficient data, but it looks like there might be a winner amongst them. In particular, this one: So, the request: I want to try adding video testimonials to the mix of ads. I'm looking for a few folks willing to record 10-20s videos recommending either The Guardian League or Mother of Trees. (I don't think ads for Thaumatropic Roots make sense until I've completed the series). For some of you, this is no different from what you do for IG already. I can put your handle in the text if you want, but I can't link it (because the ad will be linking to the amazon book page). But I'll be spending money on the ads, so consider it some low-key free advertising for you (if that floats your boat). Since this is my first venture into video, I don't have any specifications. It's just a clumsy stumbling step forward for me. :) If you're willing to create a video testimonial, just reach out to me through this email. Previous Newsletters

Halloween season hit full stride here—first with “Scare for a Cure,” our annual messy adventure (this year: mind crawlers!), then a “Trunk or Treat” at my mother-in-law’s nursing home, where the residents—one of them 101!—handed out candy to the little ones. Never fear on that mind crawler issue, our group saved the world. Missed you this year, Sienna! Click here to be removed from family content. It’s been a whirlwind few weeks—edits, algorithms, and endless coffee. But progress is progress,...
Just a quick follow-up after my last email. I notified GoodReads of the odd reviews. They jumped on it and ran it through some checker and said it raised all their red flags, so they took down the reviews and removed the accounts of those folks entirely (so they said). I have a couple of marketing thoughts/questions for my fellow writers. 1) The first book of my epic fantasy series, Mother of Trees, almost constantly has a better ranking on Amazon than Guardian of The Palace, even when sales...
Resending (sorry, can't seem to work out the family updates section) My oldest came back from college (Univ of Arkansas) for the weekend, my middle daughter turned 18, and my youngest just about has her standing back-flip nailed. I haven't tried adding a video in a while... let me know how this goes. Busy (but very good) family time, and busy with work, so my writing got the short end of the stick for a bit. But lets face it, that's the right call.Click here to be removed from family content....
