Book Publicity
“Sometimes, you read a book and it fills you with this weird evangelical zeal, and you become convinced that the shattered world will never be put back together unless and until all living humans read the book.” ― John Green, The Fault in Our Stars

Author Platform Building
You are a writer, not a company. Do you really need a brand? If you want to share your expertise and get more readers then the answer is yes.
An author platform is about more than social media. It’s about creating and expanding your visibility online. Here’s how we do it.
• We pinpoint what value you bring to readers and tailor a platform to get the word out.
• We will design your website so that it is in keeping with your brand. If you already have a site, we will see if it needs any fine-tuning.
• We help you create engaging content for your website to attract readers or increase your existing readership. If you’re too busy, we write for you. We also optimize your website for social media friendliness, SEO, Google analytics, and mailing list sign-up.
