Sold...

 

The Amazon advertising experiment resulted in an actual sale, which means I might extend this to see how well I do. This is still one sale off 10 clicks and 11519 impressions. I won't go into what I spent vs what I earned, this arrangement isn't lucrative unless I really up the cost of my books and hope that someone would be prepared to pay 15 to 20 bucks rather than 5 or 6 (due to printing costs and Amazon's cut if I charge the minimum I earn the minimum royalties). But I generated a sale. I didn't expect to and I somehow did. This is the most passive advertising campaign I've run, I haven't even pushed on social media. I don't see the same results. I tried running a few Goodreads campaigns but they weren't delivering outcomes.

Point is, I got someone to buy something I made, which is the one thing I keep assuming I can't do. Okay, so I can't convince anyone to buy them by the truckload. But it still kinda makes me feel good. Kind of an uptick to the trash fire 2020 has been overall.
