Author Takeover Packages
If you’re an author looking to get your books into the hot little hands of new-to-you readers, then you might consider taking over the group! The only thing our LitRing bookworms love more than books is meeting the authors who write them.
You can take over the LitRing VIP Readers group starting at $100 for a 2-hour block of time, and the options go up to a full week with LitRing’s frequently sold-out Book Launch Blast package. Authors looking to hit a list often use our book launch package as part of a larger integrated marketing strategy. If you're hoping to hit a list, it is unlikely that our package alone will get you there, so be sure to include it as part as your overall marketing plan!
If you have a group of authors looking to promote a single book, like for an anthology, then you may be interested in our 24-hour takeover for $250. Whatever your goal, LitRing can work with you to create an event that meets your needs.
Regardless of which option you choose, you’ll receive a handy guide with answers to FAQs, tips, and a video to help you get the best engagement with your posts. Get all the details about takeovers, or sign up if you’re ready to schedule now, right here > https://www.litring.com/author-takeovers.

And that’s not all. Some other things to consider are...
We work for YOU, not the other way around. It's our job to find readers, subscribers, followers for you. After all, that's what you're paying for. We will never require you to share a promo to stay in good standing with us. Conversely, overwhelming your readership with too many giveaways nonstop all the time can negatively impact your author career--we want to see you thrive and we want to be a part of that!
None of what we--or you--do can be successful if it's not about the readers! We work to ensure that our promos are fun, different, and something readers want to be a part of. We offer good prizes that are different each time. We talk to readers, curate recommendations for them, give them a human presence to interact with. While authors may pay our bills, readers represent the true value behind any promo company.
As an author you should always feels like you own every part of your business. That's why we are transparent and offer regular updates about our promos, usually daily. We also regularly share actual data and figures as well as little tips to help in your individual marketing and advertising efforts outside of our group.
LitRing offers a team who is committed to learning, adapting, and making our own way. Our graphics are gorgeous and professional. Our ads work because we study, tweak, and change them up. Good marketing doesn't work on autopilot. We give each promotion the care it needs to become a success.
At the end of the day, it's easy to reach short-term goals. It's much harder to make a lasting impact. We want the readers and followers we connect you with to stick around, to get to know you, to love what you offer. This is why we scrub subscriber lists before sending them. This is why we get so much danged data for each promo. This is why we limit the number of lists readers can join in any one promo.
And this is why we think you should choose LitRing. Thanks for listening. Thanks for being here, and thanks for trusting us with such an important part of your author career.

Melissa Storm, Author - www.melstorm.com
Melissa Storm is a mother first, and everything else second. Writing is her way of showing her daughter just how beautiful life can be, when you pay attention to the everyday wonders that surround us. So, of course, Melissa's USA Today bestselling fiction is highly personal and often based on true stories.
Melissa loves books so much, she married fellow author Falcon Storm. Between the two of them, there are always plenty of imaginative, awe-inspiring stories to share. Melissa and Falcon also run a number of book-related businesses together, including LitRing, Sweet Promise Press, Novel Publicity, Your Author Engine, and the Author Site. When she's not reading, writing, or child-rearing, Melissa spends time relaxing at home in the company of a seemingly unending quantity of dogs and a rescue cat named Schrödinger.
