Beyond the Blurb
Made by An Indie Author for Indie AUthors

Personalized Book Marketing Audit & Toolkit
Congratulations! You did the hard part - you wrote the damn book!
Now comes the part nobody really prepared you for: convincing strangers to read it.
Between writing blurbs, choosing categories, figuring out what to post, and trying to reach the right readers, book marketing can start feeling like a second full time job.
Beyond the Blurb is designed to take some of that work off your plate.
I'll take an outside look at your published book, research how it's being presented to potential readers, and put together a personalized PDF with actionable recommendations and promotional materials.
WHAT'S INCLUDED:
1. First impressions
An assessment of your book's public facing presentation, including cover, description, positioning, and how clearly it communicates what readers can expect.
2. Book description review & rewrite
A review of your existing sales description, along with a suggested rewrite designed to communicate your book's hook and appeal more effectively.
3. Reader & market positioning
An exploration of your target audience, relevant genre positioning, and comparable books or media that can help draw readers in.
4. Discoverability recommendations
Suggestions for improving your book's discoverability, including categories, relevant search phrases, and storefront presentation where applicable.
5. Your strongest marketing angles
Five personalized promotional angles based on your book's premise, themes, presentation, and available reader feedback with recommendations on which to test first.
6. Ready to use promotional content
Five written social media captions and three creative concepts you can adapt for posts, reels, graphics, or other promotional materials.
7. Your 30-day marketing action plan
A prioritized plan outlining what to improve, what to test, and where to focus your efforts over the month.
8. Additional marketing resources
A sample outreach message and recommendations tailored to your book's marketing opportunities.

FAQs
Do I need to sent you my manuscript?
No. This service focuses on how your published book is presented and marketed. I'll work with your public book listing, available reader feedback, and the information you provide.
Will you actually read my entire book?
I mean, maybe - but not for the purpose of this toolkit. This isn't a manuscript critique or editorial review.
Will you rewrite my book description?
Yes. You'll receive a suggested replacement description as part of your personalized toolkit.
Can you guarantee more sales?
No. Marketing results depend on many factors. My goal is to give you clearer positioning, practical recommendations, and promotional materials to test.
Is this only for horror authors?
No. Although I write and publish horror, this service is designed for indie fiction authors across genres.
Will you post the promotional content for me?
No. I'll provide the content and creative recommendations for you to use on your own platforms.
Can I purchase this for an unpublished book?
This service is designed for books that already have a live public listing. If your book hasn't been published yet, contact me before purchasing.
How will I receive my toolkit?
You'll receive a personalized PDF by email.
Can I request revisions?
This toolkit includes one round of corrections for misunderstandings of information you supplied.
