I was recently sent a copy of Book Reviews That Sell from the author. As I love books that offer tips and ideas for authors I jumped at the chance. I'm so glad I did. Loads of great info about getting quality book reviews.
About the book
BOOK REVIEWS THAT SELL: Discover the Secrets of Getting a Boatload of Great Reviews
Having a good number of high-quality book reviews can make the difference between mediocre books sales and having a best seller. Dr. Webb's last four books have ranked #1 in their categories.
Even after such success, Dr. Webb recognized that he was neglecting an important part of maintaining long-term sales. He concentrated on getting about 15-20 reviews immediately following the release of his books, but he failed to establish the process for getting more and better reviews, setting higher goals for reviews after the book launch. His research and testing for this book will prove themselves within the first week of launch, but also for the extended period following its initial success.
By reading BOOK REVIEWS THAT SELL, you will learn:
- Reasons why Amazon may soon remove some of your best reviews.
- Techniques and tips for increasing the quality and quantity of reviews you are getting.

The key to book sales is through building a relationship with your readers. But, did you know that the key to getting more and better reviews is establishing ways to communicate better with existing and potential reviewers?
Read this simple, little book to find out the strategies, systems, and skills involved in building a reliable, long-term network of reviewers.
