Let's be honest...

When it comes to book marketing, it’s no secret that video is one of the best ways to get in front of your readers and boost your book sales.

And TikTok? is the best platform to be on right now to sell your book. 

#BookTok changed the game for many authors (including me, selling 35k+ books through TikTok!) so I created this step-by-step guide to teach you how to use TikTok to boost your book sales and grow your brand as a writer using the same proven strategy I used when I started out at 0, and now have an audience of more than 400,000!

And the best part?

You don't need thousands of followers to get noticed. Your first video has the opportunity to see success because of TikTok's algorithm, which values what people like over who people follow. 

In fact, 37% of TikTok users have bought a product from a video according to TechCrunch. AKA readers are ready to buy. All you have to do is get in front of them!

But here's the thing...

it's so important that you're not just turning up on TikTok and winging it. There's a strategy to help you do it right!

• You might be experiencing low views and engagement on social media.
• You might be stuck with how to navigate TikTok and use its many features the right way.
• You might be posting day in and day out and not achieving the book sales you know your book deserves.
• You might be hanging out on the sidelines thinking, "There might be opportunities here for me but I don't know where to start."

And all of that? Might have you feeling like you can't have the success you're looking for.

I was once in your shoes, starting from 0 as an everyday person on the platform, just like you may be. 

And in a matter of two years using TikTok to promote my books, I had an agent, book deals, and sales I never thought possible.

How could your life be different if you had the book sales you've dreamed of?

• If you could save time on marketing because you knew exactly what you needed to do to see success
• If you could connect with more readers who are excited to read your book
• If your book sold copies in your sleep...

I know it would feel amazing, because I've done it myself!

So why am I the right person to help you figure out BookTok?

Hi, I'm Shelby Leigh, a bestselling writer who has been marketing online for 7 years. Over the last 2 and a half years, I've grown my TikTok to more than 400,000 followers and have sold more than 40,000 copies of my book.

After years of studying marketing and managing social media accounts for large brands, I've learned what it takes to grow an audience, create content that resonates with readers, and most importantly, sell.

Now, I am a full-time writer and I am proud to help other writers achieve the sales they dream of.

I created The BookTok Blueprint after seeing other writers get stuck and give up on TikTok, and asking me how they can get book sales through TikTok, too. 

I truly believe that every writer can market and sell their book without it being overwhelming, without it taking up all of your time to write, and without spending money on paid advertising.

This solution will help you do that and I can't wait to see the difference it makes for you!

One final note before we reach the end:

My goal is helping other writers feel less overwhelmed with marketing so they can do what they love most: write!

I know that learning a new platform or trying something out of your comfort zone can be overwhelming and stressful. 

If you know me and what I write about, I've struggled with insecurity and self-doubt for many years. Getting on TikTok and reading my books and showing my face on camera was terrifying. But it also completely changed my life and helped me become a full-time writer. 

I hope that - whether or not you purchase this guide - this has at least encouraged you to take a leap and step out of your comfort zone. There are readers out there who will love your book, and TikTok is an amazing way to find them.
