I have 25 stories published
under one of my pen names.
However,
when I recently published a story
with a larger, new-to-me publisher,
readers viewed me as a brand new writer
and I was…
to them.
I have to prove myself
all over again.
I have to prove I can write
and provide entertaining stories
and produce multiple stories.
The same thing happened
with my first releases on Amazon
… and All Romance eBooks
… and Barnes.
One of the reasons
we explore new distribution channels
is to reach more prospects.
These prospects might have never heard
of our products or our companies.
We’re new once again
so we should treat this new distribution channel
sort of like a do-over launch,
same branding
but (hopefully) without the mistakes of the first launch.
