As a self-published author, you will want to find many book marketing opportunities. And, if you’re like most authors, you likely are trying to prioritize your budget when marketing your books.
Do you get bombarded with opportunities to promote your books? Are you sometimes unsure if these are real offers… or possibly a scam? When it comes to marketing your books on social media, I’ve seen a lot of scams out there. In fact, I probably get spammed on every single post that I publish. So what are some of the tell-tale signs of a book marketing scam?
I've got a quick message for you about which “opportunities” to avoid!
If you are getting inundated with DMs for book marketing offers, check out their websites to make sure the offers are legit. Better yet, get a referral from someone who has used their services.
And never, ever give someone your credit card or banking information through a social media message!
