The Perfect Place to Promote Your Book

Print or ebook, this program is a jewel!

Out on a limb here, I’m going to categorically state that AwesomeGang.com is a perfect place to promote your book, your ebook, and yourself as a writer, author, and self-publisher. Once in a blue moon, I run across a creative who, like me, truly wants to empower all of us. His plan won’t cost you a dime. You will invest a half hour of your time crafting your submission for his site. You win.

About Vinny

Vinny O’Hare is the hyper-energetic force behind the decade-old AwesomeGang.com , and he is the epitome of a successful serial entrepreneur. He began his affinity for all things web in 1999, so like us, he knows what WYSIWYG meant. Back then, if you built a website, you built the computer first and hand-type all the html coding. We used programs like Coffee Cup and Dreamweaver.

In 1998, 70 million people worldwide were online. Today, 65.6 percent of the world’s population (that’s billions, folks) has internet access, and they spend about seven hours online daily. Vinny is right there, helping writers and self-publishers succeed.

He is a skilled photographer who shares his knowledge of website success, affiliate marketing, email marketing, social media, and technology on a variety of sites.

About the perfect place to promote your book

It’s not easy to develop an audience for your book, your side hustle, or your current passion. While searching out resources for you, I tripped over AwesomeGang and the thread that just keeps weaving through Vinny’s projects. Here’s why AG is the perfect place to promote your book or project.

It has almost 60,000 subscribers who are perfectly targeted for the creative work we all do.
It is connected to a massive network of active social media and podcasts created by Vinny for the people he wants to empower…you guys.
It’s all free. Or mostly. You can opt-in to a $10 promotional tier that offers premium placement and valuable perks. A one-time charge. Do it.
The site is easy to navigate, clean, and pleasant to browse. The guy knows his stuff.
He’ll publish a credible interview with you about your writing career. Free.
You can participate by sharing on your own social media, and his followers are really good at sharing.
Communication is outstanding and consistent. It isn’t one-and-done.

How does it all work? Is this real?

Yes. And yes.

There’s nothing up his sleeve that I could find. It’s straight up for real, and it’s easy. You have to be willing to invest like half an hour, but during that time, you’ll be writing about yourself. Isn’t that your favorite topic?

So, go to the AwesomeGang submission page, and follow the prompts. You’ll add your synopsis, book title, your bio, website, link to the sale page, and your social media links. There are very few restrictions on the type of book you can list. Note that this promotion is not just for free or 99-cent books.

I love that, unlike many sites, you are not limited to a minuscule number of characters to describe your work. This is the perfect place to promote your book and say what you need to say. The cover image size is regulated, so use a compact image.

Answer a few questions, and opt into or out of his newsletter. I’d say opt-in; this guy has a lot to say in an engaging way that you would have to spend a lot to buy elsewhere.

Is that all there is to the perfect place to promote your book?

Once you finish the book listing, check your work and click the link to the author interview. This is the really fun part. AwesomeGang gives you a form interview to fill out that asks great questions and gives readers a lovely portrait of who you are as a writer. This is golden.

Vinny and company will check your answers over, compile them, add your picture, and post the interview on their site. They are pretty quick about it. I’d say average processing time is under a week. Your interview gets promoted on their social media for about six months. You are invited to post your book on their social accounts. They will post on your social when your interview goes live. No, I’m not kidding. Vinny wants to help you. Free.

Let me illustrate. Here’s a question from their FAQ:

“Does my book have to have a set number of reviews?

No – When I started as an author, I couldn’t get a review or get my book on book promo sites. That is the reason why AwesomeGang came to be. To help the new author trying to get noticed and sell more books.”

Do you have to do anything else?

Drop him a thank you in the comments on AwesomeGang because he works hard to operate the perfect place to promote your book. Post your interview cover page on his listed social media sites. Join his Facebook group. Be grateful for an outstanding opportunity — they don’t come along that often. And pay it forward by doing whatever you can to help your fellow writers, authors, self-publishers, and side hustles succeed.

Thanks, Vinny. Good job!
