Sales Promo August 1-August 31 on Bookfunnel

The Mythic Exploration Sales Promo is designed for fantasy books with some kind of mythological component, with mythology defined very broadly to include folktales and fairy tales as well. Books can be straightforward retellings of myths, modern adaptations, or books that borrow significant mythical elements to tell a different story. So far, the promo has some of each.

New authors are welcome, even if you don't yet have much of a mailing list. We all have to start somewhere. Just share as much as you are able. I'd also recommend joining mailing list building promos to increase your reach over time.

For those of you not yet involved with Bookfunnel, I find it can be a good source of sales, with a better conversion rate than AMS ads for a lower cost. (Individual promos are free, but Bookfunnel does charge monthly or annually for their plans that give you access to promos and other features, cost depending on which plan you pick.) https://bookfunnel.com/pricing/ I've seen conversion rates from clicks to sales ranging from 3% to 25%, depending on how appealing my book looked, how well it fit the theme of the giveaway, and whether or not it was discounted. People who visit these promo pages are actually looking for books to buy, so in that sense they're a more receptive audience than people browsing on FB, for example.

Thanks for joining! I'm hoping it will be fun. Even at first glance, I want to buy a lot of the books myself, so we should be able to generate some sales without too much trouble.
