April, are you asking if the ads help you get more BookBub followers? If yes, you might find this article on the BookBub site helpful: https://insights.bookbub.com/ideas-for-getting-more-bookbub-followers/

Elaine, ad prices for giveaways/free books are a lot lower.

When I look up costs for a Bookbub ad, they are over $1200 and over. Yet, you say you paid no more than a couple hundred. Am I looking at the wrong cost list?

It’s definitely interesting, Isabelle. I suspect that book readers aren’t as aware of the exclusivity as we are. All they know is that they sign up for the emails, select the genres they read, and get deals every day. What they care about is that they’re getting a discounted price, and that they like the books when they read them. They don’t know much more than that — that authors pay for those newsletter slots, that they’re competitive, etc. So…the exclusivity increases the trust among those of us in “the business,” but the average consumer is unaware of it.

This article was very helpful. Author have so many avenues to market their books, and not enough testimonial on what works, and where one should focus. It was interesting to learn that Bookbub creates exclusivity by now accepting every book, which then increases the trust for those books accepted. Quite clever.
