This post is going to dive into how to get the most out of free book promotions or 99-cent sales (which will include KDP countdown deals). You'll walk away with a better idea of the strategy behind these kinds of promotions.

If you're NOT inside KDP Select, you can manually change prices or use a promotion tool from within your dashboard.
