My stories get a sh*tload of reviews.
This isn’t because I’m a great writer.
There are plenty of great writers
who don’t receive reviews.
It is because
I promote the reviews
I receive.
I mention them on social media.
I mention them on my blog posts.
I add them to Amazon listings.
Everyone does something
because she or he wants something
in return.
The reviewers, superfans, partners
who promote us,
promote our businesses,
usually,
at the very least,
want recognition.
If we give them this recognition,
they’ll continue to promote us.
If we don’t,
they’ll assume we don’t appreciate
their efforts
and allocate their time
to other activities.
Are you promoting
your great reviews?
