Authors want to write, not sell, but not everyone has the access that the marketing that the big time publishers do. This is where I come in. Outsourcing the marketing of a book is a great way to build an audience while you keep writing (results vary between fiction and non-fiction). I’ve broken down my services to make them as affordable as possible, while still ensuring quality. Read the descriptions for each service very carefully and note which are on-going and which are stand-alone. No matter which one(s) you choose, you’ll walk away with product that could be used indefinitely. And the best part is, at the end of the day, you will own it all!
So what are you waiting for?* Pick the option that works best for you and hire me, so you can get back to writing, and I can get your book(s) seen!
*Some options may have a waiting list several weeks long so be sure to plan ahead.
Available Services
Pulling Quotes and Making Memes
$300+ Expect a minimum of 1 week to create, $30/hr upon request after that
As authors, we don’t always know what our best lines are. As an expert marketer, I’ll review your manuscript several times, compiling a list of that books “Greatest Hits.” I’ll use the existing cover art and inspiration from the book’s content, to build a library of images. All of this will be saved in a Google-Drive file for you. I’ll then take all of that to Canva, where, via your preexisting account, a new free account assigned to you, or an account I establish for you, I will create a hundred or more social media memes. You can then down load them and post them to any of your social media, post directly from Canva, and continue to create memes of your own based on what gets the most responses from your audience.
Social Media Content Creation + Management

This is EVERYTHING in the “Pulling Quotes and Making Memes” option on steroids!

I do that with a combination of memes, current #’s, links to your blog posts about the book and/or relevant articles that demonstrate expertise in your topic and/or genre. This builds consistent value for your audience over time, cultivating trust and loyalty in your readers. It also can include build up to release events and special offers.
