Minisode: How to Engage Social Media Adverse Readers

We love listener questions, and this is one we absolutely wanted to address: How do I engage with readers who don't use social media? This listener even says she has people in her network that don't want to use Amazon either. So we cover a number of creative (yet cost effective) ways to promote your brand, connect with current fans, and even draw in new readers on channels outside of social media and even Amazon. But please know we're still HUGE proponents of using the right social platforms, and definitely utilizing Amazon to your benefit, so this episode isn't a get out of jail free card - but it should inspire you to look beyond the typical options!
