We’ve launched a LOT of books over the last ten years. And one common factor in the most successful book launches is:
a STRONG ARC team!
What is an ARC team?
You may here this called a variety of names. Book Launch team, Street Team, ARC team.
The purpose of ARC readers is to READ and REVIEW and POST said reviews on either GoodReads, Netgalley, Amazon, Instagram or other social, blogs, or any other places reviews go.
Some authors have more robust launch teams, but your goal with your ARC team specifically is simply: give out a book, receive reviews.
This is not always easy!
Key differences between Beta Readers, ARC team, Launch team:
- Beta readers – small group of readers who help you clean up your book, make improvements, and prepare it for you to send to an editor
- ARC team – your advance readers – their mission is to read and review your book
- Launch team – your CHEERLEADERS for launch. This may or may not include your ARC readers. They post and share about your book, but might not have actually read or reviewed it.
