Have You Heard about Buck
Books?
I recently found out about them myself and ran a promotion with them, so I want to share with you what I discovered...
Buck Books seems to be racing to the lead in book promotion
with their outside the box style, and the win-win benefits for authors,
affiliates, readers, and of course themselves. Those extremely expensive book promotion
websites that are reserved for only the privy might want to take some notes— I'm still fairly new at this whole authoring ebooks thing, but just from the experiences I've had, and the research I've done on other book promotion websites; I would venture to say that Buck Books will be the leading promotional
website for ebooks. If I’m wrong, you can always come back and tell me “I told
you so”. But if they keep going at this rate, I doubt it…
How Buck Books Benefits Everyone
Involved:
·
They benefit authors with free book promotion;
·
They benefit affiliates with the commission;
·
They benefit readers with quality books at low cost;
·
They benefit themselves with their own affiliate commissions;
·
They also benefit other ebook sellers with promoting books being sold on their websites;
For Authors:
If you are looking to promote a book, buck books can be a
bit hard to get into. If your book does not look marketable, professional, or
publish ready, they may choose not to promote your book. So make sure to cross your T’s and dot your
I’s and make sure that your book cover is professionally designed. The only thing they ask of authors is for
promotion of their website. But they don’t
even ask for promo without giving something else awesome in return. Authors not
only reap the benefits of getting their book promoted, but they can also reap
the benefits of getting and affiliate commission at $1 dollar for every person
who subscribes. How crazy cool is that? Which brings me to the affiliates…
For Affiliates:
Buck Books provides you an affiliate link to put on your website or
share on social media. When someone signs up to receive book promotion emails,
you get $1. They also give you a commission when someone signs up as an
affiliate.
They have a Tier 1 & Tier 2 affiliate commission.
Basically, when the person you referred signs up as an affiliate, you will be paid
a .50 cent commission. When that same person refers someone else, you
receive a .25 cent commission. Pretty sweet huh?
For Readers:
Their motto is “Never
Pay More Than a Buck for a Book Again”. Buck Books provides readers quality
books for an unbeatable price. The reason I say quality books is because they don’t
promote just any book, like I’ve seen so many other websites do. Buck Books is
working hard to create a quality brand, and with that brand, they want to
feature quality books. Therefore they take the time to verify the books
submitted to them are something interesting that people actually want to read.
After all, if you’re promoting junk that nobody is going to want… even if it’s free,
or just a dollar, nobody will waste their time with even looking at what you
have to offer. I’m an author, and I’m subscribed. I’ve seen some pretty good gems
come to my inbox.
I ran a promotion with Buck Books on January 2, 2015. My
book went from selling 1-3 units per day to selling 141 units in one day. I was Number #1 in three categories and had a sellers rank
of 1,700. I even saw my book hanging out in the same place as Dr. Phil's which
was pretty cool.
Ok, so selling 141 units wasn't the biggest promotion I could have done, but it certainly WAS THE BEST PROMOTION I've ran so far out of all the paid promotions since being an author. Buck Books is still fairly new and rapidly expanding, so I'm sure if I run this same promotion one year from now, my sales would at least be quadruple that number. With that being said- since they are fairly new, they are still working out some minor kinks. So be patient. I’m sure they are just busy cooking up something good for those who wait…
