The Awesome Indies Magical Mystery Tour

Posted on September 27, 2013 by Kate Policani

Today I’m joining the The Awesome Indies Magical Mystery Tour, hosted by the Awesome Indies. From the 27^th to the 30^th September you’ll have the chance to pick up some special offers or win some awesome prizes at all the blogs participating in the tour, including mine.

Why is it called the Magical Mystery Tour? Because it highlights the magical and mysterious qualities of some of the books listed on the Awesome Indies. Also, there’s a chapter of a mystery at each blog, and a tour for you to take and read the full story. Inside the scenes you will find the key you need to enter the Giveaway for an Amazon gift card. (First prize is a $25 card, second prize is $15 and third prizes is a $10 card.)

All you have to do is start at the Awesome Indies, follow the links from blog to blog, read the story and pick up the clue to the mystery key to enter the draw when you get back to the Awesome Indies. While you’re at each blog, read about the author’s book and enter their giveaway or pick up their special offer.

If you haven’t started the tour, pop over to the Awesome Indies and start now: http://wp.me/p3HF9i-1wW

Pricing a Book

Posted on October 24, 2012 by Kate Policani

OK! Some of you who have been reading my posts might say, “Kate! You hypocrite! You said you loved the 99 cent ebook and then you priced your book at $2.99! What’s wrong with you?”

Yes, I did say I believed in the 99 cent ebook and I still do. But there is a reason I’ve done such a crazy thing as price my book higher. Discounts.

If I price my book at 99 cents, there is no way for me to get the attention that comes from discounting my books. I’m at the bottom and the last step is free. SO! I’m pricing at $2.99 now and then discounting a few times until it goes to 99 cents. Unless it sells like crazy and then we’ll see. I’m not going to mess with something that’s working.

Do you get my plan though?

Put On Your Kickin’ Shoes

Posted on June 26, 2012 by Kate Policani

We are live with my Kickstarter campaign! This one is more chill than my previous campaign, and more of a pre-order platform than anything else. There are several ways you can get your hands on my digital pre-release copy without committing to a pre-review. I have Day-of-release paperback options as well as some fancy stuff.

http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/523666041/dont-judge-a-book-by-its-magic-book-launch

If you want to buy my book, I’d encourage you to go this route because you can get things earlier, and because you get a discount! If you want more swag, I’ve got it there too. (I do still believe firmly in the 99 cent ebook, but I’m going to start my book at $2.99 so I can discount it later and boost sales.)

If you are interested in pre-reviewing my book, you don’t need to buy it. I’ll send you the e-copy as soon as Kathleen has finished her fabulous editing magic on it. Email me katepolicani@gmail.com to get on my pre-review list.

Risking Some Green

Posted on March 28, 2012 by Kate Policani

I tried something new and risked a little bit of money. I read Molly Greene’s article here http://www.molly-greene.com/how-to-sell-100-books-a-day/ and liked the first step in the 100 books a day story. (Hint: it was the cheapest)

So I went here: http://www.99-cent-network.com/www.99-cent-Network.com/Home.html and signed up at the link on the bottom. It says “Authors Join the 99cent Network”. There is a special on now but it is not as cheap as the interviewee Terri Long paid, but that was a while ago, I guess.

Maybe you shouldn’t click right over there and sign up yet. Maybe you should see how I do. EEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!
