SNM048: Getting Book Reviews
With my first book launch, I reached out to friends, family members and business partners. More than thirty people said they would buy my book at ninety-nine cents and leave me a review.
I ended up with 3 sales and 1 review.
I learned my lesson the hard way.
Do NOT Use Friends and Family
Amazon wipes reviews that they think are biased. The Amazon Crawler is constantly sifting and looking for reviews to remove. If you are even Facebook friends with someone, Amazon may delete the review.
Personal relationships between author and reviewer are suspect and Amazon errs on the side of deleting those reviews.
No only will your social circle disappoint you with reviews, Amazon will delete the reviews you do get.

No matter how much you think that you know, there is always somebody smarter out there.
