BookTok Basics
Desiree Worrall-Belanger

TikTok is one of the newest and hottest social media platforms. BookTok is how authors are engaging readers about their works on the platform. During the workshop, Desiree plans on elaborating on 6 very important points that revolve around being successful on Booktok, not only as a Booktoker but as an author as well. Here is what you can expect Desiree to address during the workshop:

How to promote your book in a way that will get you more views
How does the “Booktok Algorithm” work, exactly? And how can you make it work with you, not against you
How to collaborate with Booktokers to gain exposure
How I (personally) promote authors as both a Booktok Influencer and a business owner
What Booktok wants to see, and how you can use this to your advantage – both in the TikToks you make, and in your future writing.
How to study Booktok and create content that viewers want to watch
