The last post regarding e-book advertising costs to sales kind of exploded. Now, that sounds very violent, but I don’t mind, because if there’s one thing I love, it’s data goo.
Now my partner in crime, fantasy author Nicholas C. Rossis, has hit on the genius idea of asking you authors – yes, you out there – for your own advertising results. If you have marketed your own book, please visit his site and take his survey: just 3 tiny wee questions will take only 2 minutes but make some data lovers (like me) very happy, but more importantly, contribute to invaluable information which will be promptly re-released to you, on which advertising methods have worked, and which have not.
Please take the survey! If you do, I promise at least one more chart. Mmmmmm….. charts…..
Figuring out where to advertise your book is worse than standing in a betting shop, five minutes before a race. You have money in your pocket, but a limited amount of time in which to select a guaranteed winner, and the odds are not in your favor.
I have already posted my ad results online. But I need more information. So, please send me your precious data. Where did you advertise, how much did it cost you and how many books did you sell as a result?
I will use this data to inform you of the best ways to invest your precious, limited advertising budgets. Also, I promise to share my own sales and ad results with you. With your help, we can reach thousands more – just share, reblog and share some more. Let’s help each other navigate these treacherous waters and make sure we don’t spend another dime in…

You’re most welcome, Nicholas. Although the drool is causing rather a mess, you might bring a mat the next time 😀
