Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ

Send a customizable message to readers who enter your giveaway
Authors and publishers who run Premium giveaways can now send a personal message to readers who entered but didn’t win � included at no additional cost. Here’s how it works:

1. When you set up your Premium giveaway, you’ll see an extra field to enter a message to share with entrants after the giveaway ends (up to 1,000 characters). Don’t forget to include a greeting and a closing.
2. Once you’ve set up your giveaway, Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ will send you a preview of how your email will look to readers.
3. A few hours after your giveaway ends, Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ will send the message out to readers who entered but didn’t win.

Some tips on how to create copy for this message that really resonates with readers:

• Make it personal. We recommend the email comes from the author of the book. This makes the email a friendly, more direct communication between a reader and the author of a book they’re interested in reading.
• Share an anecdote or interesting insight. Where did the idea for the book come from? Have readers been asking a particular question about this book that you can reveal the answer to? Is this book related to an event or person in your life?
• Invite an ongoing connection. Use the email to encourage people to follow you on Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ so you can continue the connection.
• Say thank you. Thank people for entering the giveaway and how much you appreciate their interest in the book.
• Don’t make it too long. People are busy and attention spans are short. You want them to keep reading and see the “where to buyâ€� section at the end.

As a quick refresher, here are all the ways your book will be promoted with a Premium Giveaway:

• (NEW) A customizable message sent by Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ to entrants who don’t win, providing a unique chance to connect with potentially thousands of readers interested in your book.
• Featured placement in the Giveaways section of Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ, with tens of millions of visitors each month, giving your giveaway significantly more visibility and more entrants. All giveaways are also featured on the title’s book page on Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ.
• Everyone who enters your giveaway automatically adds the book to their Want-to-Read list, promoting your book via updates in their friendsâ€� updates feeds, and building an audience for your title.
• The author’s followers and anyone who has already added the book to their Want-to-Read list get a notification, letting them know there’s a giveaway starting. This helps generate even more entries, creating more stories in the Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ updates feed.
• About eight weeks after your Giveaway ends, winners receive an email from Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ to remind them to rate and review your book. This will help other readers discover and decide to read the book too.
