Your book it's not a toy

Let’s talk about something most authors wrestle with (but few admit): the downside of giving your book away for free.
Sure, giveaways can bring in new readers, boost your list, and spike engagement.

But overdo it, and here’s what happens:

Readers start waiting for the next freebie — instead of buying.

You attract folks who just want free stuff, not true fans.

Your book starts to feel... less valuable.

So what should you do instead?

✅ Run giveaways strategically — maybe monthly or quarterly.
✅ Use them to grow your list, not just social media metrics.
✅ Celebrate loyalty, not random chance.
✅ Remind your audience that your writing is worth the price.

You put time, energy, and heart into your book. Make sure your marketing reflects that value.

📚 You've earned it.
