You cannot effectively promote books
Because you cannot persuade readers to buy any book in which sentences do not make sense. This shouldn't be “does.” If you don't see the problem, that is a big problem.
C) Persuade book reviewers on BookTok or Substack or someplace to recommend your book. If your book is unreadably terrible, this is probably impossible.
What did someone say to you that instantly made you realize their life was in danger?
E) Take a solid year to learn how to use Amazon or Facebook ads and be prepared to lose quite a bit of money as you figure it out.
B) Build a newsletter mailing list of people who will buy your book because they trust you to write books they want to read. This is slow, but ideal.
Are you planning to proofread your book to avoid sentences such as
Why has my ex moved on so fast after years of being together with me?
D) that are presented with bad covers, bad descriptions, or ludicrously bad interior formatting.
If your book is well presented, well written, and basically free of typos, then
D) Pay promotion services like Written Word Media to promote your book. Legitimate services will not accept your book for promotion if the presentation is crappy or the book is badly written.
Why is Eric Clapton so roundly disliked among guitarists?
B) that are filled to the brim with typos or errors.
