“Ten years ago, you wrote a book and you never expected to
find out anything about the author. Now with social media, everyone wants that
connection. I think our readers want to be invited into our lives and brought
on the journey and be part of this whole process. ~~ Jane Green
Not Sure What to Post? Try These Ideas
Authors often ask me, “What should I post on social media?”
The answer is simple: Great content that your readers will
enjoy. Social media and book marketing aren’t about you. Yes, you have books to
sell and a blog you want your readers to visit. But in the end, everything you
do is about the reader.
As such, the content you post will be driven by what
motivates, moves, and meets the needs of your readers.
In other words, the content you post will need to be:
- Informative
- Interesting
- And when images and videos are used, captivating
- And at times, your content can be entertaining
