August 2011 Sales Numbers

Image
By
Another month has passed, and another month of book sales has happened. This month looked bleak, especially when compared with last month. But, in the last week of the month, things picked up. I sold more in the last week this month than any week before. Needless to say, this made me very happy.

During the month, I had three releases. They were Unspoken Stories - Volume 1 (eBook Edition), Unspoken Stories - Volume 1 (Print Edition), and the last story in Book 1 of the Miscorrection series, Sundown, which I published during Hurricane Irene (pretty impressive, right?).

Another signficant number not listed below is the sales for Copy Bird. For about a month, I attempted to get Amazon to put the short story up for free, and they finally did! Current sales stand at almost 4,500. That number makes me very happy because it means I got some of the exposure I wanted from the sale. Had it gone free and I only sold say 400, I would have considered the marketing attempt a dud. If you haven't read Copy Bird, it's still free on Amazon, so pick it up before they start charging for it again.

I'd like to send a big THANK YOU to anyone who bought my books last month. Y0ur support of my writing brings a huge smile to my face, especially since you're letting me entertain you with my writing. If you did buy one of my books and read it, feel free to write a review on your own site, Amazon, Barnes & Noble, or Smashwords. Your doing so would be greatly appreciated!

Now the moment you've been waiting for. Here are my paid book sales numbers for August 2011:

Total Paid Sales For August: 22

This total is double what I sold in July. Now, if sales keep doubling each month, I'll be one happy guy!

    You'll probably see more or less steady sales at those numbers until you get about 30 titles up. That was my experience, any way.
