Problem 1

You're not sure what to do next.

You’re tired of conflicting advice and spending money on things you’re told you need, but that don’t improve your bottom line. Your business is being held hostage by a lack of direction.

We cut through the hype and fake advice to give you strategy that works.
02
Problem 2

You're invisible outside Amazon.

Your books are good — great, even. But readers who don’t know you yet can’t find you on social media or Google. You have no brand presence beyond a listing. Your expertise deserves a bigger stage.
We build your author brand and visibility across all the right platforms.
03
Problem 3

You have no system for growth.

You don’t need to spend a lot of money to grow, you just need to choose a few strategic priorities to fuel your sales engine. Your publishing business needs a proper engine.

We give you the structure and systems to scale sustainably.
We don't believe you should have to tolerate interruptions to your publishing income — or be entirely dependent on the goodwill of a single platform.

We use the most common platforms, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube. The ones we use for your author depend on a number of factors, such as your niche and audience.

Our review team has years of experience adhering to Amazon ToS, and know how to keep your account safe by staying on top of changes to Amazon ToS. Our team supports a wide range of accounts and understands that caution prevents your account from suspension, or worse, termination

Yes you can. Each author will need to have their own subscription, as we are unable to effectively split our marketing efforts across multiple authors on one account. Each author will need their own strategy and social media content custom designed by our team, which If we are able to create efficiencies by marketing multiple authors then we will always pass on those savings to you. This would be a discussion to have once we have set up the strategy for the first author you choose to focus on with us.

We recommend a minimum of 3 months. Like all good things, building an online presence that converts to sales takes time. The overnight successes we hear about are rarely overnight, as you know. Being an author you’re already aware of the time investment required to improve your book rankings and visibility. This is no different in reality, however you are in great hands with us.
We will build your own author based online bookshop that’s linked to your website. If you have physical books to fulfill, we have partnered with a print on demand book fulfilment agency, who will print and send books directly to your customers.
At the beginning of our journey with you we will work with one book per author at a time within an account. This avoids confusing readers with too many posts at once. We will build out a plan to market different books at different times, with the potential to include more books as your author presence grows and sales of your initially marketed book increase.
Everything we create is human centred and overseen by our team. We believe authenticity can only come from people, not AI. You are welcome to try AI marketing, however we keep seeing that its generic messaging doesn’t yield quality marketing collateral or engagement with followers.

Absolutely! Here is a link to book a strategy call with someone on our leadership team. It’s a no obligation call.
