Hello there,
Once again thank you for being on the book launch team. I thought it would be easier to create a page with all the resources that you can use to spread the word about my Play Music Better book.
Purchase a copy
If you’ve yet to purchase a copy please head over to Amazon. I’ve put the links below to the USA, UK, and Canada.
Add a helpful review
Please would you write a helpful review today and give the book five stars (pretty please)? If you could write a handful of sentences, that would be much appreciated. The algorithm values longer reviews from those who have purchased. The links below will take you straight to the review page.
Please click on the link for your country. (Don’t forget to purchase first 😀). If you are in Europe or elsewhere in the world, you can scroll down the page where you purchase the book, and you’ll find ‘write a book review’ there.
Please note that in some countries, you have to have spent a certain amount on Amazon in the last 12 months to write a review.

To gain traction, I need to make as many sales as I can in a short window, and for that, I would love your help.
Spreading the word
Please can you share the url below with anyone and everyone. It’s a page on my website where people can buy the book and get access to the extra resources.
