Hand selling books with social media

Posted on January 1, 2015 by The Author • 10 Comments

As you know I am an author. My first novel came out January 2012, published by Harper Collins. So why do I do all this stuff on social media, BooksGoSocial etc etc? I believe we are in a new age of hand selling or screen selling (screlling?). I have heard it said that one of … Continue reading →

From blog to Hollywood

Posted on March 14, 2013 by The Author • 2 Comments

I received a proper, with money involved, offer for the option rights on The Istanbul Puzzle. We are all very excited and my publisher in London, Harper Collins, are negotiating the finer points about percentages of the box office and all that with the Hollywood producer involved.

What some clients said about our services:

"In October 2013 sales of my WW2 novel, The Black Orchestra, had declined to the point where I was selling just 4 books per day.

I asked Laurence O'Bryan to see what he could do to help. Wearing his Social Media 4 Writers hat he guided me through a blog-and-twitter campaign followed by a Countdown Promotion on Amazon.com.

Today, 3 weeks after the promotion, sales are growing again and I am now selling 50 books per day.

Faced with a bewildering number of choices: blogging, Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Wattpad etc., it can be difficult to put together an effective marketing campaign. Laurence provided the expert guidance and support I needed to make the right choices and just the right level of pressure to keep me focussed."

JJ Toner http://www.jjtoner.net/

"After the initial burst of sales at launch of my novel died down, Laurence's service has enabled me to maintain visibility for my novels at a very reasonable cost. Although I'd engaged with Twitter and flirted with Facebook, this has focussed my efforts on the things that are really effective. It's an ongoing process, there's plenty of scope for improvement on my part, but blog visits have risen sharply from a few a day to 50-100. The improvements suggested to my blog and website are being implemented and are increasing book sales."

"Laurence O'Bryan has helped me for the past two years to manage my social media presence and to reach out to readers and inform them of news on my forthcoming novels. This has been a wonderful service."
