Book Marketing & Launch Operations
Audience, channels, and the math behind a profitable launch.
Chapter i·What this topic covers
Book marketing is the long work of finding the small number of readers who will actively recommend your book. It is largely a research problem before it is a creative problem: who reads books like yours, where do they talk about books, and what convinces them to try a new author. Most authors over-invest in ad spend and under-invest in audience research; reversing that ratio is the single highest-leverage move in indie publishing.
What you’ll find here
- Audience research, keyword discovery, and competitive positioning.
- Newsletter building, reader magnets, and email sequences that convert.
- Paid ads on Amazon, Facebook, and BookBub: when they work and when they don't.
- BookTok, Bookstagram, and book-blogger outreach without sounding spammy.
