The Problem You're Facing

You wrote an incredible book. You poured your heart into it. And now... crickets.

Sound familiar?

• You have no idea how to market your book (and every "expert" says something different)
• Social media feels overwhelming—algorithms, hashtags, trends you don't understand
• You've tried posting on Instagram or TikTok but nobody's engaging
• Launch day came and went without the fanfare you hoped for
• You're spending money on ads but have no idea if they're actually working
• Your email list is embarrassingly small (or nonexistent)
• You feel like everyone else figured this out except you

Here's the truth: Writing the book is only half the battle.

The other half? Getting it in front of readers who will actually buy it.

And if you're like most authors, nobody taught you how to do that.

What If Marketing Your Book Was Actually... Simple?

Not easy. But simple.

What if you had a proven, step-by-step system that told you:

• Exactly what to say in every marketing message (no more staring at blank screens)
• Exactly where to show up online (so you're not wasting time on platforms that don't matter)
• Exactly when to do what (a clear timeline from 90 days before launch through long-term growth)
• Exactly how to measure success (track what actually matters, ignore vanity metrics)

That's what The Author Marketing System gives you.

This System Is Different Because...

❌ Most book marketing advice:

• Tells you to "just post on social media" without teaching you what or how
• Focuses on tactics that worked 5 years ago (author blogs, anyone?)
• Assumes you have a big budget for ads or a team to help you
• Gives generic advice that doesn't account for your specific genre or goals
• Leaves you drowning in information but paralyzed by implementation

✅ The Author Marketing System:

• Gives you the EXACT copy, templates, and systems to implement immediately
• Based on what's working RIGHT NOW (BookTok, email marketing, AI tools, Amazon A10)
• Scales from $0 budget to $1,000/month (works for any level)
• Accounts for fiction vs. non-fiction, series vs. standalone, and beginner vs. established
• Includes step-by-step instructions so you actually DO it, not just learn about it
