Day 5: Setting Up a Virtual Book Tour in 5-Days Challenge

I finally made it to Day-5! I thought today would never get here …

Did I succeed in setting up my 10-Day, 10-Stop Virtual Book Tour? I don’t know yet. It’s still early in the day and I’ve got several more bloggers to contact. Check here for itinerary updates.

In this video I review the previous 8 steps in setting up a virtual book tour and then I show you the email I use to contact bloggers asking if they’d be interested in participating in my virtual book tour. I explain each section of the email and why it’s included. You don’t want to skip a paragraph. I encourage you to copy my email formula, not my words. Put your personality into your email, you’ll be more successful.

Good luck in setting up your own virtual book tour.

If you have any questions don’t hesitate to contact me. I’ll be glad to help you in any way that I can.

Until next time …

No day without a line.

    Hi Bill.

    Thanks for this series on setting up a Blog Tour. I found it interesting, not because I’m looking to set up a tour but because I host authors on my blog. So, it was informative to hear from the other side of the equation.

    I’ve just finished an article I posted on my website looking at it from the Host side. If you’d like to read it, it’s at:

    There are new things to learn every day concerning the Internet. It’s hard to keep up with it all! When I cruise around, I don’t even pay attention to whether a blog is hosted on a free service or the blogger’s domain. And, yet, now I find out that’s important to visiting authors. So that’s another thing I need to learn — how to host a blog on my own domain.
