Who do I send it to?

- The Microniche Magnet: endorsements and shoutouts. See What is the Microniche Magnet?.

Where does this fit in the bigger plan?
Outreach to influencers is part of building your audience before launch. Step 5 · GROW is called "Build Your Fanbase Before You Launch", and the roadmap asks "Why wait until launch to find your readers?" When launch day gets close, your launch team is covered in How do I build a launch team?. Amazon has its own rules for publishers, so read Amazon KDP Publishing Guidelines before you plan your launch.

These are listed on the Step 5 roadmap:
