Honestly, trying to push a book into advertising before beta readers have properly gone through it can be risky 😭
A lot of authors end up promoting the wrong aspects of the story or missing issues readers notice immediately. Good feedback helps you figure out what people are actually connecting to emotionally before you spend time and money marketing it.That also makes things like ARC campaigns, Booksprout-style promotion, email collection, newsletters, teaser content, and reader retention way more effective because you already know what hooks people.
If anyone needs helpful feedback on their story or wants advice on early book promotion/reader-building stuff, my DMs are open
