If you're an author with books to sell, don't miss out on the opportunity to peddle them at your local coffee shop. In addition to providing a great place for customers to buy your work, selling at a coffee shop can also offer some amazing benefits. Here are just a few of them.
1. Increased Exposure: Coffee shops are a place where people from all walks of life come to network, chat and pour their favorite drink. As such they're the perfect spot for author marketing! You'll get more exposure than if you were just selling online or at bookstores because these joints draw in customers who may not know about your work yet - which means there's an excellent chance that someone else will find out simply by browsing through what kind of literature interests them most at any given time (and this goes double during happy hour).
2. Enhanced Credibility: While in person, coffee shops are perfect for building credibility and trust with potential buyers. You can even offer them some of your art in exchange for their opinion. You will have the opportunity to interact closely which helps you establish an emotional connection that lasts long after they've left your store or blog page!
Now that you know the benefits of selling your books at a local coffee shop, it's time to get started. Do some research and find the best local coffee shop for you and your books. Once you've made contact, be sure to follow up and provide them with information about your book, including the cover art, synopsis, and author biography. Let us know how it goes!
