Social Proof – and J.-B. Willermoz’ letter to his son

Dear Friends,

I have a favor to ask you – and hopefully an incentive!

Many of you have purchased my translations of Saint-Martin and Papus, and have had very kind things to say both on Facebook and in person. Unfortunately, that hasn’t translated to reviews on amazon.com!!!

Amazon judges success by a number of factors, a key one being what they call ‘Social Proof’. This is a direct tally of the number of reviews a book is getting. A high number means more exposure, more offerings in Amazon Prime, and more incentives for the author to continue to write. A low number means it’s classified with the little old lady books on cats, and dies in obscurity.

I hope to continue to bring source French books to the English market, books which are the foundation of Martinism, Martinezism, the O.K.R.C. and others. Unfortunately, few reviews means little publicity, little revenue, no ability to pay for trips to libraries in Europe, and ultimately a very slow turnover in new books.

It only takes three minutes to go to my page and leave a couple of sentences. Let me know it you loved any of my books – even if you hated them! Apparently a reaction is all Amazon needs to promote the books.

Here’s a link to my author’s page if you’d like to help: https://tinyurl.com/ya6ktehb

As a ‘Thank You!’ for helping me – and yourselves – I’ve attached the first ‘doctrine’ by J.-B. Willermoz to his son, a very moving letter, and the first of 9 of Willermoz’ doctrinal statements which I’ll be publishing in the near future.
