WHAT IS A STREET TEAM?
A street team is a special group of people meant to help the author by being enthusiastic at spreading the word! There are millions of books published and it’s easy for authors to get lost in the masses, so the best way to spread awarness about our favorite books, is word of mouth! YOU! That’s where the Ravens come in.
In my book Bow Before the Elf Queen there is an elite group of warriors who protect the king and queen. You are my Ravens, my warriors. ELITE!
WHAT YOU DO
In-Person:
- Tell people you know about the books and share with friends & family to help spread the word
- Buy the books during the first week of release – this helps get books on bestseller lists
- Ask your local library to order my books, give the librarians the title, name, and link
- Leave promo materials at local book stores, coffee shops, or library – with permission!
Online:
- Share my posts about the book or make your own posts on social media
- Join in any big social pushes for releases or announcements
- Feature interviews, reviews, excerpts or anything else on your blog, website, Facebook, etc…
- Visit during online appearances like chats and blog tours
- Connect me with people you know who you think would be interested
- Review the books as soon as possible at online retailers with your (honest) thoughts
WHAT YOU GET
- Acceptance into an exclusive Facebook group to share your thoughts, talk to me, and engage with other fans
- A giveaway each month and or during new releases for a book OR special swag
- The opportunity to apply for early copies of my upcoming work (ARCs) (You are not guaranteed to get an ARC but you can apply and if you’re a good fit, its likely you’ll get one)
- Exclusive Q&A sessions or live “hangouts”
HOW DO I BECOME A RAVEN?
If you’re willing to spread the word and be a fan, you’re in!
If you’re interested, request to join the Facebook group (if you use Facebook) and fill out the questions. While you do not have to join the Facebook group to be a member of the Ravens, it does help as most of the day-to-day conversation and interaction happens there!
