The Strategic Use of Book Giveaways
The giveaway is one of the more powerful tools in the new author’s arsenal because it’s a way to get attention when you may not have anything else going for you. There is no demand curve for you yet.

(Thus the race for reviews, social media presences, etc—anything that indicates your work deserves attention.)
