I have used Books Go Social for more than a year now and found their professionalism fantastic! They are quick to respond to emails and their works has always exceeded what I expected. I am very happy with the service and know I will continue to use it.

They've done a great job of "tweeting" my book.

I've been with Books Go Social since November 2013. My WW2 Black Orchestra trilogy continues to sell at a steady rate. I published the 3 books 1 year apart, 2013, 2014, 2015, and my average for the 3 years is about 27 books per day. I dropped the service once or twice for a month at a time and my sales plummeted, so I have no doubt that this service sells my books. JJ Toner

This is my first novel and therefore my first experience with Twitter marketing. i have found your service to be top notch. Your representative Tanja was and continues to be very helpful. also the fact that you prove the clicks to Amazon is a major plus. I will continue to use this service as long as I am marketing my book.

Successful promotion in every facet is tricky at best. There's no magic bullet, no sure fire method (a substantial budget notwithstanding) that will guarantee sales and a shot at bestseller status. One thing is sure, though, if your book doesn't have the exposure to allow folks to make the buy/don't buy decision, no sales are guaranteed. Books Go Social, in my opinion, provides an economical means to give my name and covers the kind wide coverage I couldn't do my own. My sales fluctuate, sometimes radically, but without BGS, I don't believe I'd be in a position to put readers in that all important buy decision conundrum. BGS is worthwhile promotional tool.

The quality of the Tweet wording (I asked for some tweaking of my Tweet!) was great. The frequency of Tweets surprised me. And since I thank those who have retweeted the original post, sometimes they RT the thank you also, so Win-Win!

I have had two books, written within a year of each other both go to No. 1 in genre at Amazon Though they were selling well, it was only after the social media push from Books Go Social that sales really spiked. Everyone was so very responsive to concerns or questions and the quality of the work and the professionalism of the platform made it very much worth the money spent. Thanks! Author LB Johnson

Books Go Social is a fabulous marketing program and my main way to promote my book right now. Not only have I seen around 1500 hits on my amazon page each week, I am seeing, most importantly, book sales!

BGS posted a ton of tweets, but I saw no sales, so they refunded my payment. I did not even know that was a possibility! I would mark that as some excellent customer service. What do you have to lose...give them a shot.

Laura, please use our guaranteed refund to get your money back. We don't work for all books. A romance writer is our one of our biggest sellers. So it's not about genre. We get people to look at your book, but we cannot force people to buy it, but we do keep our word and refund authors if it didn't work out. To help my email address is: lob@yourasms.com and we refund fast too, in 24hrs.

Very effective and well organised service. I was recommended BGS initially but didn't realise the extent of the 'social'. There is a community spirit among the other authors and even on Facebook I find myself on their page as opposed to my own newsfeed. Engaging with other authors and readers is the key to making it work. I would certainly continue to use the service and recommend to others.

I love networking with other authors, and all the bonus stuff they periodically offer. I've gotten a bunch of reviews that will help book sales in the long run. Great service!

There's no doubt about it; BooksGoSocial is entirely professional. In what seems like less than a week after I'd ordered a video book trailer, it was produced and ready for distribution. And, the price was extremely reasonable. I got to pick out the background music, a few of the stock photos and even had a say in the text being used. Tanja was wonderful to deal with and Laurence even followed up with a personal email to me asking about my experience with BooksGoSocial. Book marketing seems to be a never-ending endeavor and I'll most certainly be back when it's time to do it all over again.

After a couple of emails with L O'Bryan, I decided to invest in his experience and talents. As an author, I felt surely another author would have already experienced similar challenges in marketing a first novel. I ask him which package would he invest in first; he answered and explained why. I took his advice and have been very pleased. The precise marketing tools and style of BooksGoSocial is very clever and I'm impressed. The time has been short , but my name and novel have been "put on the map" by their unique Social Media promotions. I'm anxious to get my next next sales report from my publisher. I do know this: my sales have increased and I expect this to continue as the only change I've made to my ad campaign is the addition of BooksGoSocial. Amen!! Margaret McBride, author

As an Indie author, marketing has been my biggest challenge. Uncertainty in which direction to take combined with my limited time and budget has prompted me to do a bit a research. What I've learned is that– in today's market– one avenue I mustn't miss is that of social media. Since many Books Go Social tweets pop out on Twitter, common sense has suggested that if they catch my eye, they most likely will capture the attention of the masses. So, I have made a modest investment in Books Go Social as a marketing tool. They haven't disappointed me. I receive numerous notices each day of their promotion tweets for my book. Lately, they have taken it upon themselves to add a visual cue that has received even more attention and retweets. Overall, I've been very pleased with their services and plan to continue using them in the future.

Promotion of 'Going Crazy in the Green Machine' through BooksGoSocial has been quite positive. The Twitter placements doubled the number of followers and the number of hits on the book website also spiked during the promotion period. Thanks, John
