Who Are Your Readers? [Discussion]

If there’s one thing every author can use, it’s more readers! If you’ve followed our advice and found your target market, you’re well on your way to figuring out how to attract those readers to your work.

We know that it’s always helpful, however, to hear the experience and advice of other indie authors who have already been through the process and have begun to establish their readership.

To those authors: help out your brethren! We want to know:

  • Who is your primary target market? What process did you use to decide on this group?
  • Do you have any secondary or tertiary target markets?
  • What genre do you write?
  • What marketing/promotion methods work best with your market? Which are least effective?
  • What advice do you have for other authors attempting to narrow down a target market?

To join the discussion, please leave a comment below addressing any (or all) of the above questions. Also, mention the discussion to your indie author friends — we’d love to get varied input!

What do you think?

We LOVE hearing your thoughts via our discussion posts! To keep up with all future installments (in addition to the great content from the rest of the month), subscribe to our RSS feed
