"social media doesn't make an impact on book sales" objectively false lmfao. maybe it doesn't always move the needle a huge amount but every time i feel bad about my sales i make a tiktok advertising it and get at least one or two. gradual but steady growth is arguably better than mega virality imo
May 14, 2025 16:56there are plenty books getting popular and their sales going over the roof because someone who had an audience briefly mentioned it in a video or blogpost.
not even talking about those rare cases like the "how to lose the time war" post that made the book a viral phenomenon in under an hour
