Promotions and events
For authorsUpdated 1 min read
Studio, Promotions holds deals (a discount, a free run or a bundle, with dates, an optional book and a where-to-buy link) and events (a launch, a signing, a panel, with a place or an online link). Save one quietly or announce it; announcing notifies everyone following your pen name, and there is no unsend.
The short answer
Deals
Studio › Promotions › Run a deal: the kind (Discount, Free or Bundle), what the offer is in a line ("Half price on the ebook everywhere until the 30th"), when it starts and ends, optionally about a book of yours and where to buy (a full link). A deal is a price drop with an end date; the page lists what is running and upcoming.
Booklabria does not process the sale: the link goes to the shop you chose, and the price lives there.
Events
Add an event: a title ("Launch night at the Rialto"), when, where (a town, or online) and an optional link and details. A launch, a signing, a panel: anywhere readers could come and find you.
Announcing
Saving a deal or an event shows it on your author page (and a deal on its book's page) without telling anyone. Announce it and everyone following this pen name is notified; there is no unsend, so the dialog asks first. You can save without announcing and tell them later.
Where this lives
Related
- The Author Journal: New entry opens the Journal composer with fourteen formats in four groups (General; Book and Story; Launch and ARC; Community), each asking only for what it needs, an audience (Public, Followers, Only me), an optional content note that hides the entry behind a spoiler warning, and a preview. Entries can be saved as drafts under Studio, Posts, and one can be pinned to your page.
- Publishing your first book: Create a book from Studio, Books, New book, with its synopsis, up to three genres and six tropes, content level and warnings, language, page count and a cover (uploaded, or a pattern with the title drawn on). It starts as a draft only you can see; set it to Coming soon (with a date) or Published when ready. Add a sample and buy links from the edit page; archiving takes it off the catalog without deleting anything.
- Following, and what you are told: Follow authors (their pen name), readers and series; their news reaches your feed and the bell, grouped and switchable per author. Notifications live under the bell, everything can be marked read at once, and e-mail is a digest, never one message per event.
