Would this help you with your next book launch?

Hi,

I'm thinking about building something to help authors with book launches, and I'd love your input before I build it.

There are no wrong answers, and "I wouldn't use this" is genuinely useful to hear. Thanks for helping me figure out if this is worth building for authors.

Thanks, Ben

What genres do you write within?

How many books have you published?

Roughly how many readers can you directly notify when a new book is out (for example, your email list, not counting social media followers or Amazon followers)?

When you release a new book, how do you tell your existing readers that a new book is out? (for example, email newsletter, social media, Facebook group, Discord, etc)

How satisfied are you with your ability to reach your existing readers at launch?

What's the most frustrating part of notifying readers about a new release?

The idea: a simple page where readers can sign up to be alerted when your next book is out.

You could link to it on your social media, in your link tree, at the end of your book(s), in your email footer, or anywhere you point readers. Readers manage their own alerts. You don't run a list or send anything.

Just to be clear, this is free for authors and no cost.

How interested would you be in a page like this?

Where, if anywhere, would you put the link?

I probably wouldn't link it anywhere

In my link tree / link-in-bio

On social media

On my website

At the end of my book(s)

In my newsletter

On my email in the footer
