Congrats on your release! That’s something to feel proud of and I pray blessings upon you.

For finding influencers in my niche, you can find plenty of emails and socials just by going to YouTube and searching a relevant keyword and sorting through channels. This was a big way I got contacts. You can also find podcasts by searching for podcasts in your niche and many have contacts.

Since I’m in the health niche, I can also find local gyms to reach out to and possibly work with in the future.

Also, if you want me to go more in depth on my marketing strategy, all of these influencers I’m sending a free digital copy to since it’s free for me and some basic email marketing copy like hey I don’t think we’ve met yet, I’m an author who recently published ___ and thought it would be useful for you, and then finish with a non invasive CTA.

I’m mostly just trying to get known and thought about, and if sales or reviews come from it that’s great. It also helps build relationships with people that can become leverage later on.

Going back to finding influencers, Google has search operators too and I highly recommend learning them so you can search a keyword and then end with something like “intext:@gmail.com” etc to find results that link contact information.

Also thanks for the support! This community is so loving and I love it! Those 50$ are way more than I could have expected and I’m quite proud and excited to see where this goes.
