Let one of the top marketers on Reedsy's marketplace show you how to get reviews without a lot of effort.
You've undoubtedly seen competing titles with double-digit and triple-digit reviews and wondered: What's their secret? If you want to compete, you know that you need as much social proof as possible, but you’re probably also left wondering:
- How you can get your book into the hands of reviewers
- If soliciting reviews will become incredibly time-consuming
- How to navigate the ethics of review-seeking so that you don’t accidentally misstep
- Whether editorial reviews are worthwhile
It probably all seems intimidating and overwhelming. After all, when you chose this path for the love of writing, you undoubtedly never imagined that you’d need to tackle marketing in order to succeed.
But the good news is that launching a review-seeking campaign doesn’t have to be difficult and it doesn’t mean giving up a massive amount of time. Once you get your system in place; you should find that a steady stream of reviews will begin pouring in with very little effort on your part.
And it can be this failure to enact a well-thought-out plan that contributes to lagging sales.
It’s a simple fact that, if you want to succeed as an indie author, review-seeking simply can’t be avoided. But the good news is that it's possible to obtain reviews without the process becoming a chore.
I wanted to make the process of soliciting reviews as easy as possible for authors and, it’s for this reason that I created Book Reviews Made Simple for Authors.
This course includes a review-seeking system, from start to finish, that can be implemented with very little effort. And, once in place, this review seeking machine will be running in the background to draw reviewers to your book.
Once everything is set in motion, you can go back to concentrating on what you really love: writing and building your career as a creative.
And, simultaneously, as reviews pour into your book’s sales page, would-be readers will become more confident that your work is worthy of being noticed.
Best of all, this process of seeking reviews is easy and effortless to repeat. That means that you’ll be able to set it and forget it for book after book after book.

Course Curriculum
If you're still hesitant to take part in the course, it may be because you're thinking:
"I'm going to get overwhelmed"
For the most part, this course shows you how to set it and forget it. Once you put the process in motion, you can basically sit back, relax, and wait for the reviews to come rolling in.
"This is going to be too technical"
There is very little in the way of anything technical involved with these methods of garnering reviews for your book, so there is no need to worry. There is really only one slightly technical topic in this course, and I make a point of walking you through it so that you never feel lost.
"I'm too busy"
I realize that your time is precious and this consideration really gets back to the point of just how easy this system is. You won't need to sit at your computer for hours on end to see success. Just follow the lessons that I have laid out and you can quickly and easily set out to seek reviews.
"I'm not a marketer"
That's okay, you don't need to be a master at marketing to produce results with this course. You do, however, need to have a willingness to get the word out about your book. And with the information provided in this collection of lessons, you will be that much closer to helping your book garner the much-needed social proof that your book needs to compete.
Don't let yourself get caught in a cycle of analysis paralysis that prevents your book from achieving its full potential.
At this point you need to ask yourself, are you willing to leave your book’s success to chance?
Because, if you’re committed to giving your book a fighting chance in a crowded market, you must arm it with the reviews it needs to win out over the competition.
