How to stand out from the crowd? Every indie author wants to be able to stand out from their competitors. Let's be honest: there is a lot of indie writer's out there today. Many of them are very talented writers. So how do you get readers to choose your product?

- reward them when they do".
- meaningful.
- believable.
- distinctive.
