We will help you and give advice on how to edit and present your book in the market which will help in the increase in book sales.

NOT KNOWING YOUR TARGET AUDIENCES :

Means that you are writing a story without knowing it and if you are writing a story to someone and that can’t feel the emotions and you can’t give enough detail about the story to them. Then it will become difficult to explain what is your purpose about the story and how to convince and inform the audience.

When you are trying sell your book and say that this book is for everyone the audience may assume that all people are potential customers because there is no age, interest or needs this seems like you want increase your sales but your marketing impact is weak the message you are sent to your audience is too general for them and they don’t feel that the book is especially meant for them.

Poor Book Cover Design :-

if you are presenting a book in front of the audience that should be professional, cluttered or covered properly because if it’s not like that then it might look poorly designed and messy with too many elements. And then the audience will feel uninterested towards the books.A book cover is like the face of the story.

Readers do judge the book cover and decide that they want or not to read a book. Because a book cover is the first thing that the reader captures in mind and that takes attention towards themselves.

Weak or confusion title :-

Giving a too long title for a story. it might be difficult for readers to understand the concept and feel the emotions. Because of mismatched titles it fails to make an impact on a story. Long titles can be difficult for the audience to remember. If the title is not fit for the story that confuses the reader totally and creates the wrong impression about the story.

Skipping professional editing :-

when you are publishing a book then first you should check it well because if there are some kind of grammatical mistakes that can make the reader feel that the author has written it in an unprofessional and careless way.

Because readers expect from their author that they are spending time and money for a book that should be a smooth and well-experienced story for them because they trust their experience.If they repeated the weak flow or some error that can make the content hard to understand and reducing the overall impact of the message or story.Once readers feel the book is not worth their effort, they are less likely to finish it and they might not buy the book from same author name.

Boring or misleading book blurb :–

The author has a great cover or a good title but the description is unclear then the reader might think about buying a book for a while. Because the description should look sharp and highlight the book’s unique appeal and interest to reading and give just enough detail that make readers more wanted and interested.

If your description is too long or poorly written and they fail to create excitement and if they cannot convince their readers why they should choose their book and not other authors’ books because the other side has a strong and understanding description for the reader this pushes them to take the next step.

No marketing plan :-

if the author have no plans for release their book or how to promote the book towards their readers and they believe that simply publishing is enough for people but it’s not like that because this case are too rare to find out the book with millions of book available on online and in store also that author new release book can easily be lost in the crowd if it isn’t promoted.

Readers don’t find books automatically in the market when they have gotten somebody recommendation, review or from the audience. Without getting active and promoting a book it will be unnoticed even if their story is well written in a book. Only a successful author can understand that publishing a book is a first step and effort in marketing because finding the right audience and connecting that truly brings the reader to their work.

Pricing mistakes :-

When you are setting a price of the book too high without being a known or established author that can be problematic for readers to give it a chance.Because reader who hesitant to spend money on new writer which they have not heard till know, especially when there is an option from well known authors for them. Keeping a high rate of books can create a difficulty for the author and reader will try to skip the book rather than taking a chance. Authors have a chance to start publishing books. They can rate their book at a reasonable price or give discounts to people that can help them to build trust and get connected to people.

Negative Review :-

Negative reviews are not always harmful. Sometimes they help to provide interesting stories and valuable things but authors ignore their suggestions and make no efforts to improve themselves so that they can find some kind of trust issues in readers’ minds. But readers have pointed out some issues like having editing problems or weak storytelling etc. In future readers will think that the author does not care about the quality and readers opinion towards them. This can destroy the trust between author and readers and people will stop buying a book in future also.

Genre Placement :-

When authors make genre mistakes readers feel disappointed and they feel cheated because the story has not delivered the proper experience which they were expecting from the book. If a story is marketed as a thriller but reads more like a slow-paced drama, or a romance that promises lighthearted fun turns out dark and tragic, readers feel misled. This mistake breaks trust , and that turns into a negative review and the audience will ignore buying books by the same author again.
