I have been trying very hard to sell my book. One of the ways you sell a book is to have those who have read your book post a review.
I recently paid a company associated with Debbie Drum to go through reviews on Amazon and see if they had an email associated with the review. That way I could email these people and see if they would be willing to review my book.
I ran my book through different categories and only got a handful of emails, so I immediately called the credit card company and filed a dispute against the charge. It was within three business days from the transaction.
When I complained about the lack of information, this is the reply I got…”If you run a book and there is no contact data, there are no results. That is the beauty of using the tool. Imagine going through 400 profiles manually and only getting 5 results? it would take you days to do that.”
Nope, it wouldn’t take me days to do that because I wouldn’t be stupid enough to do it in the first place.
I am currently having to fill out a form to justify my dissatisfaction with this company. I am not happy with my bank right now or this company.
I would like to warn everyone who is a writer not to fall for wishful thinking.
There are so many people online who want to make a buck off of authors and bloggers. I am getting to the point where I don’t trust any of them. I refuse to waste my time listening to them because I am too gullible and also too poor.
Many people want you as an author and/or blogger to give your book or writing away for free and then they want to charge you money to garner reviews for it. That kind of business doesn’t pay my bills.
I would say if you listen to Debbie Drum and you think she can help you get reviews then I have some swamp land in Arizona I would love to sell you.
By the way if you want to read a good book and post a review, may I suggest The Shattered Vase by Gracie Lynne? Just saying…
