Book Events are a great way to build your author platform and grow your community on I Turn Pages.
Publishing a book is only the beginning. The authors who build lasting careers are the ones who build communities — readers who follow them from book to book, share their work, and become advocates. I Turn Pages gives you the tools to do exactly that, and events are one of the most powerful ways to start.
Every event you create on ITP puts you in front of readers who are already here because they love books.
Unlike social media, where your posts compete with everything else in a crowded feed, I Turn Pages is a dedicated reading community — your book giveaway even reaches readers who are actively looking for their next read, their next favourite author, and their next bookish experience.
Running book giveaway events regularly keeps your author profile active, builds your reputation within the community, and gives readers a reason to follow you, engage with you, and come back. And, most importantly, it builds your reader subscriber list. Which is gold to authors.
There is a small cost for adding events, but they are showcased to the entire community and all visitors. And the best part is that you manage the enrollments. You can message readers who take part in your event directly from your event page, and then download a CSV to build a list of subscribers who may want to continue to follow you for your next book launch.
