10,000 Karma Points For Superstars

We really appreciate you joining us at The Bestseller Experiment.

People ask how they can help spread the word so we put this page together so you can help spread the love. What's more, you can build your marketing skills for when your bestseller is ready!

3) WEDNESDAY'S MISSION

HELP A FRIEND (or THREE)
Know a writer or someone who has a dream of writing a book? Send them an email with a link to your favourite episode, or send them to the homepage where they can watch the Intro Video. 


4) THURSDAY'S MISSION

REACH OUT TO THE MEDIA

Getting featured in a major publication is HUGE for any podcast or book. Before you start marketing your own book, here's a chance to practice. Find an article on your favourite news site - the BBC, Guardian, Huffington Post, Buzzfeed. Find the journalist name and email (usually at the top or bottom or the article) and drop them a personal email, thanking them for their article and tell them about the podcast and how it has helped you. 

TOP TIP 1: No email? Google their name, the publication and the word 'email' or 'contact' e.g.

Joe Smith BBC Email 

TOP TIP 2: Still no luck?

- Copy the web site address without the www.

e.g. bbc.co.uk

- Add an @ symbol at the start.

- Then put there first and last name infront of the @ symbol

e.g. joe.smith@bbc.co.uk

It'll usually arrives!

If we get featured you'll certainly see your name in lights! 

5) FRIDAY'S MISSION

DO SOMETHING OUTRAGEOUS!

It's the end of the week, so it is time to do something outrageous! Here are some ideas... Let us know of any others you dream up.

1) Message or Tweet Stephen King, JK Rowling, Neil Gaiman or your favourite author and tell them:
"You need to be on this The Bestseller Experiment!"

2) Forward our newsletter to an eclectic selection of people, for example:
- Your local bookshop
- Your local library
- The CEO of a major publisher
- Your favourite author
- Barrack Obama

Get our Newsletter here: https://bestsellerexperiment.com/newsletter/

3) Hold a Bestseller Experiment party!
Requires two or more friends. Tea / coffee or something stronger. You each bring your favourite book and try to convince the others in under ten minutes why they MUST read it. Then play them your favourite episode of the podcast. Sit around stroking imaginary beards and then talk about the book you'd write to become a Bestselling author.  

4) Get your Book Club to read "Back to Reality". Drop us an email once you have read it. If you are the first club, we might invite your Book Club on a special show to tell us what you thought!

5) Stuck for ideas...? Why not support us on Patreon, hear your name dropped on our show, get loads of exclusive and bonus content AND help us cover the running costs of the podcast! Fandabbydozy!


Don't forget to drop is an email or a message on Facebook
