How to become a Kobo bestseller
The Kobo Writing Life team is excited to announce our latest Live Q&A on January 27th, 2022. From 12:00 PM-1:00 PM EST, KWL Director Tara and Author Relations Manager Joni, will be telling you everything you need to know to become a Kobo bestseller. If you can’t make the takeover, feel free to comment on this post with your questions and we can ask them for you!
Hi authors!
I am delighted to start 2022 with a Kobo focused Q&A. The New Year is all about turning over a new leaf, taking the time to think about what you want to achieve and choosing areas to focus on. As such, I thought it would be a great time to give an overview of all the ways that Kobo Writing Life can help you achieve your publishing goals.
Everything you need to know to succeed on Kobo
When you’re an indie author who publishes on many different platforms, there’s a lot to learn and take in. Even if you’ve been doing this for a while, things change so quickly, it can be hard to keep up. In this Q&A, we hope to cover everything you need to know about Kobo and how to become a bestseller. We will cover the following:
- Why metadata is so important in digital retail
- Tips for thinking with a global mindset
- How subscriptions are increasing author earnings
- An overview of Kobo’s promotional opportunities for eBooks and Audio
- Why library sales continue to soar
Be sure to join live and bring your questions! It’s an event not to be missed.
Happy writing,
Tara
Director, KWL
You probably mean 27th of January since there is no 37th. – I was wondering: If my books are published by Ingram, do they automatically come to KOBO? Or what if they are on Amazon, do they get placed on KOBO or do I have to do that myself as I did up to now. Another Question: How do I participate in special sales?
I am not sure that I can make the presentation so, may I ask: For paid promos, advertisements, is there a minimum number of Kobo sales needed to qualify?
