Top Three Tips for Authors to Explore Massive Success

A very popular practice among writers is to promote and market their books in various ways. Be it a new, upcoming author or a best-selling one, signing books and giving freebies help the author to connect with their readers. Also, the readers too love to get their copies signed by the author. If these gifts are given in paper gift bags, it can take the present to a completely different level.

Let’s look at some options that bookshops and authors can explore to reach newer levels of popularity and increase their book sales:

Donating books in large numbers to children from lower income families

Education institutes that cater to children from low-income families can't afford the expenses. They can't provide the children with the good quality reading material. Donating a few copies of popular books to them goes a long way in fulfilling philanthropic responsibilities. Packing the larger number of books in large wholesale gift bags and giving them to these institutes at the start of the year will take care of the children’s academic needs.

Giving free copies of the book for critical review

For upcoming authors, promoting their books by sharing free copies of their published books to noteworthy and famous people and book critics earns them the much-needed feedback. This leads to a critical evaluation for improvement. Packing these copies in small paper gift bags and addressing them to these famous critics, politicians and newspaper journalists is a great way to promote the book. The journalists will also appreciate receiving a neatly wrapped, crisp paper and fresh smelling copy. They will give you the needed feedback and suggestions on what they think about the book. Since the paper bags can be customised, they can be printed with the names and also carry your contact details for anyone who might be interested in reaching out to you. No surprises if the next filmmaker who is looking for a story might read and like your book enough to make a movie out of it. Do pack a few copies and send them to film producers and directors if you know them.

Book signing at popular bookshops and stationery stores

Every author loves this part where he visualises himself or herself signing copies of his book. S/he wants to see a large line of fans with their copies lined up in the store to have a word with the author and to get their copy signed by him/her. Using pink gift bags made of paper to keep these books and give it to them will create an amazing impression of professionalism and class. In case you are going to have a series of books related to the subject, or if you would like to leave the fans with any particular message, printing that or better still, writing that with your handwriting is a great idea. The gift bags will provide you with a great opportunity to connect with them like never before.

Using these and any other methods to connect with the readers will help you in the goal to reach the best-selling list. Keep doing these if you are yet to get there, and if they like your work, you will succeed sooner than later.
