What is a street team?

 

A “street team” is a group of volunteers who love an author’s books and want to assist in promotion. My team is only for those who are willing to commit their time to promote and who like to read cozy mysteries.

Authors rely on street teams to post news about new releases to as many people as possible through social media – Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, blog postings, and personal websites. Other ways to promote is by handing out bookmarks and fliers (I’ll provide), posting reviews and book recommendations online, requesting books from area libraries, and spreading by word of mouth.

Members of my street team will be given a free copy of my e-book to read and post a review on release day to Goodreads, Amazon, Barnes and Noble. E-books become available by my publisher approximately 30 days before the release date. Two books will be released each year.

Also, if they would like to, members will get the opportunity to beta read or critique a work in progress. Feedback on tag lines, book blurbs, and excerpts are also appreciated.

Here’s what you get in return:

  • You will receive advance information regarding my books and book covers.
  • You will have a chance to receive a giveaway at the end of the month of each book release, something other than my book (i.e., gift card, swag, etc.) U.S. residents only at this time, please.
  • If you are an author and would like me to promote your release or if you have a street team you’d like me to join, I will reciprocate. Contact me.
