[quote=Anonymous]I know of a then-burgeoning insta and social media wannabe influencer who wrote a book. Every social opportunity, every public interaction was all about the forthcoming book. Several occasions where the “author” used these events to announce the publication and to actively request of anyone who’d listen to please read and review and “give it 5 stars.” The thing is, the book hadn’t been published. Influencer gamed the system and marketed the publication of this “amazing” book like a politician. No place was safe from hearing all about how this was going to be a best seller. Sure enough, book reviews poured in and all were 5 stars! All names of locals and to no one’s surprise, all shills. Everyone who reviewed the book got free copies! Then they got invited to author events! Became part of the author’s inner circle! Leave comments on the blog! Comments from the person are moderated, just like Hatmaker’s. No one may dare criticize nor say anything negative about the author, ever. [/quote]
