"Join conversations that aren’t about you."

Too right.

I made two sales this weekend. The first was to someone sharing my taste in music, the other from a famous economic analysis blog, both totally outside my blogging niche. Exactly what I'm looking for!

Great post! Authors should make sure to check out the online communities of readers that are already established and promote their work there so they don't have to focus on developing a fanbase from scratch. As the article mentioned, it can be a slow process, but great for promotion and creating a following when one uploads reading samples and talks with potential fans with similar interest. There are plenty of communities out there, but of course, the only one I'll mention here is BookRix.com.

We've tried so many ideas but one of the best that has not been mentioned is the idea of a free author chat with invitations going out to bloggers and other press who would like, in addition to hearing from the author, a free copy of his or her book. The request we made at the end of the chat was for those who got the book that they provide a review on Amazon. My authors, such as Andres Tapia, CDO of Hewitt (http://www.inclusionparadox.com) have ended up with great reviews as a result and a strong groundswell of support.

your advice to create useful, compelling content is on the money. your blog needs to be one that will have a reader following you, not just peeking in for a one-time look. My recent post shift happens
