EIGHTY-FOUR IMMORTALS
The Half Dead Street Team
The Eighty-Four Immortals (84i) is the ‘guerilla’ marketing street team that we utilize to spread the word on our novels, readings, and signings. It’s a team effort, with everyone benefiting from getting the job done right. The aim is to help promote the Half Dead Publishing House in a myriad of ways such as...
¤ Leaving reviews of Half Dead books on Amazon, Goodreads, personal blogs, etc.
¤ Sharing others' reviews and social media posts about Half Dead authors and books
¤ Sharing social media posts
¤ Posting shoutouts/photos on our own social media channels
¤ Word-of-mouth promotion – talking about/recommending Half Dead books to family members, friends etc.
¤ Suggesting Half Dead books to book clubs and requesting them at libraries
​​
IN RETURN YOU MAY GET:
¤ First access to reader magnets; such as short stories, prequels etc.
¤ The opportunity to be beta readers for forthcoming novels
¤ Sneak peeks at cover and title reveals, excerpts from future books etc.
¤ Bonus book-related content such as printable artworks, maps, bookmarks etc.
¤ Early and/or exclusive access to content on the Half Dead website
¤ Promotion and shoutouts of street team members' social media accounts on Half Dead channels
¤ To name characters in Half Dead stories and novels. Along with a mention in the 'Acknowledgements' section of Half Dead works.
How We Do It
Flyer Runs– once monthly we ask that street team brand ambassadors hit their areas with flyers/posters. We also ask that the brand ambassadors continue to check and make sure that the flyers are still up, or not covered up.
Flyer Hits — this is where with a mass in numbers at various events, readings, festivals, etc. Our only job is to pass out handbills of our upcoming events.
​
Misc. Junk
Under this category falls everything else. From assisting with coordinating events, to working tables/merch/etc. at readings and signings. This is where the fun begins.
​
Recruitment
Let all your friends know that they too can receive free books, merch, access to readings, etc.
​
Ideas
Let us know about anything and everything. Upcoming events that we should have a presence at, local openings you think are good for the association, National acts that we should know about–the sky is the limit on your feedback. Feel free to contact us anytime (information is below) for anything.
