Book marketing · For authors
The book market
changed.
While you were writing, the publishing landscape transformed into a data-driven marketplace. We handle the complexity so you can focus on your craft.
The numbers don't lie
4 million
Books published last year
The average book sells fewer than
200 copies in its lifetime.
The difference between 200 copies and a career? Strategic marketing
across the right channels — managed consistently, not learned once and
forgotten.
Here's what's happening right now
While you're writing your next
chapter, the marketplace is moving.
The reality
You're already working
two jobs.
Most authors don't fail because their book is bad. They fail because marketing is a full-time job on top of the full-time job of writing.
📝
Job One: Author
Writing a book takes 300–500 hours on average. That's 3–6 months of focused creative work.
📊
Job Two: Marketer
Successful authors spend 15–20 hours per week on marketing across multiple platforms. A part-time job you never signed up for.
⏰
The Cost of DIY
Learning Amazon ads, Facebook targeting, email automation, and listing optimisation takes 200+ hours. Then you have to do it every single day.
💰
The Opportunity Cost
Every hour managing ads is an hour not writing. At an average author income of £47/hour, that's £940 per week in lost creative time.
18.5hrs
Average time authors spend on marketing weekly

What this actually means for you
These aren't just statistics.
They're your reality.
📅
Your Calendar
Managing Amazon ads alone requires daily bid adjustments, keyword research, and A/B testing. That's 2–3 hours every single day.
We handle all of it.
💸
Your Budget
The average author wastes £1,400 annually on ineffective ads before they figure out what works. Some never do.
We know what works from day one.
✍️
Your Writing
Authors who outsource marketing write 2.3× more books than those who don't. More books means more income, faster.
We give you your time back.

You have two choices
Keep doing it yourself.
Or let us handle it.
Neither path is wrong. But one of them costs you the time, headspace, and creative energy you don't have to spare.

No obligation.
Just an honest conversation about where you are, what the market looks like for your genre, and what — if anything — we'd recommend. No hard sell. No pitch deck.
