I am an indie author who has written fifty-five novels and 155 self-help novel over the last twelve years. They have been translated and narrated, making another 1,300 copies in at least 44 languages. I am also almost solely responsible for selling the English versions, so I know how tough that is.
This book is divided into two distinct sections: one speaks to authors, since there are things that they can do to boost sales that a book-seller cannot, such as design an eye-catching book cover. However, a book-seller should be aware of the steps that a good author should take in order to assess how high the chance is that the book could sell in large numbers.
In other words, both sections apply to authors and book-sellers alike.

In today’s rapidly evolving publishing landscape, both authors and booksellers face unique challenges in driving book sales. For authors, the journey doesn’t end with writing a compelling story or crafting an insightful self-help manual. In fact, that’s just the beginning. The real challenge lies in ensuring that your book reaches the hands (or screens) of readers who will appreciate and benefit from it. Whether you’re a self-published writer or traditionally published, understanding the nuances of book marketing is crucial to your success.
On the other hand, booksellers — whether operating online, through physical shops, or as affiliates — play an equally vital rôle in the ecosystem. With countless titles flooding the market every year, standing out from the competition requires more than just stocking shelves or listing products on a website. It demands innovative strategies, keen marketing insights, and a deep understanding of consumer behaviour.
