Are you an author looking for more book reviews? Are you looking to increase your emailing list? Are you looking for valuable tips to increase book sales? Would you like all of this on a budget that costs about as much, if not less, than a monthly, low cost TV streaming service? Well, author on a budget, do I have just the thing for you…
Today’s special guest is Larry Froncek, a book marketing expert and founder of an incredible program called, “Voracious Readers Only.” Larry has such a wide knowledge base of book marketing that he’s going to have a three part interview series on my blog. Welcome to part one, where we first talk about his program and what he has to offer talented authors.
I wanted to highlight that I’ve enrolled in this very affordable program myself, and that I’ve already had 50+ read for review requests in a one or two month span! On top of this, I’ve been able to add 50+ readers to my emailing list for my website and blog, because everyone who requests a copy of your book also opts in to be on your emailing list. These are real, avid readers who just want free books. Once you’re enrolled, Larry also sends out regular emails to authors with incredible tips for book marketing. Just the other day, he sent out an email about how to get a free book trailer made. Was I interested? Of course! So, if you’re marketing your own book, I highly recommend checking this program out. Without further ado, let’s begin our interview!
Q: Tell us about your program, "Voracious Readers Only."
A: Voracious Readers Only is a service that connects readers and authors. On the reader’s end, they are introduced to authors they might not have come across otherwise and can get a free copy of one of the author’s novels. From the author’s perspective, they’re able to build awareness for their work, grow an audience of fans, and earn reviews. It’s a win-win for everyone. Voracious Readers Only was founded in late 2017, and we’ve created over 275,000 reader-author connections since then.
Q: What inspired you to start this program?
A: One of the most common recommendations for new authors is to build their email list, but there isn’t a lot of useful information on how to do so in an economical manner. My business partner, who is also an author, and I designed Voracious Readers Only as a way for authors to build their email list at a relatively low cost without long-term commitments.
Q: Why are book reviews so important to authors?
A: One of the principles of influence, as described by Dr. Robert Cialdini, is social proof. Reviews show that other people have read and enjoyed the novel, which can give a curious reader the confidence to give the novel a chance.
