Hey folks, As a self-published author trying to gain traction, I'm wondering if book marketing services are really worth it. I’ve come across a variety of options—from email promotions and social media ads to influencer outreach and blog tours—but it's hard to know which ones actually deliver. Have any of you seen noticeable results using professional book marketing services? I'm especially curious about what worked for increasing visibility and reviews. Did the service provide a return on your investment? If you’ve had success (or failure) with any specific platforms or marketing companies, I’d love to hear about your experience. I’m hoping to avoid wasting money on empty promises. Thanks so much in advance. I’m looking forward to learning from your experiences!
