Shouting into the Void

As a recently (self) published author, I’m still trying to get my head around the concept of promoting/marketing my books.
Yes, I’ve sold a few books, but I don’t have a clear plan for how to go about getting them into the hands (or rather, onto the screens) of more readers. So far, all that I have done feels a bit like shouting into the void.
Anybody out there with fresh ideas? Or willing to share a moment of commiseration?
@zee A novel I self-published several years ago was kinda like that. 😄I’ll just name drop my favorite resources on marketing and self-publishing.
. Absolutely anything by David Gaughran.
. Kindleprenuer.com
. It’s been a long time, but I remember Tim Grahl’s book’s standing out.
. The Novel Marketing Podcast!!!
And this is something going on this week that looks pretty cool: https://fictionmarketingacademy.com/?affiliate=cslakin

👖 🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢@zee I feel similar. I’m not published, but marketing feels so nebulous and impossible- shouting into the void. Exactly.
@daeus-lamb Thanks for the resources!What you sow does not come to life unless it dies.
-1 Corinthians 15:36bYes, thanks for sharing, @daeus-lamb. Every little bit helps. What’s the name of your novel? Is it still available?
@zee No, no. 😄I took it down.
