Most book launch advice is generic - post on social media - build an email list and hope for the best.
bookfluence is different...

Whether you're self-publishing your first novel or launching your third non-fiction title, you get a strategy that's specific to you - not a template with your name swapped in.

"What a GOLDMINE StoryEngine is, and so tuned in to me and my audience. I wish I had this the first time around when I quietly put my book on Amazon without any fanfare. This is just what I needed to help promote a relaunch in the most effective and professional manner."
"As someone who has never written a book before, I found my launch strategy amazingly helpful and super relevant. The day-by-day Launch Week Playbook is absolute gold for any novice author. The overall effect is to fill me with confidence that I can actually publish a book."
"This has taken something that felt vague and turned it into something very practical. I know what I need to do, when to do it, and why it matters, which is exactly what I needed. The StoryDrive content is brilliant too. Instead of guessing what to post, I now have a clear structure that actually fits around my time."
"The bookfluence documents thoroughly broke down everything from social media posts by platform, email newsletters, blog content and so much more. It was like having a marketing expert analyse my book and create a personalised strategy just for me."
"I'd been putting off thinking about marketing because it felt overwhelming and a bit unclear where to start. This completely changed that. It broke everything down into a clear plan that actually feels achievable, and more importantly, relevant to my book and my audience."
"This is just what I've been waiting for to commit to writing my novel. The strategy guide is thorough and professional. It will kick-start my enthusiasm, encourage my discipline to stick with the journey, and guide me every step of the way."
"bookfluence has given me a glimpse of the road ahead - what to expect and what to apply now - with great new ideas for creating awareness and feedback. The years of knowledge and experience are clear in the detailing and personalization of the report. A great tool to have beside me as I write my first book!"
"bookfluence takes you thoroughly through how to prepare and think step-by-step to succeed with a book release. It was very valuable and useful. And I finally feel like I have a plan I can follow."
"I've procrastinated for so long and massively overthought everything. My ADHD brain loves the comprehensive step-by-step breakdown. I feel like bookfluence really understands me - the whole approach is wonderfully personalised."
"bookfluence takes away the overwhelm and provides a strategy, tactical plan and timeline I can actually follow based on my schedule. It gave me the confidence to know I'm creating the best chance of success for my book."
"bookfluence reviewed my manuscript and very quickly produced an incredibly thorough and detailed plan to launch the book. I was massively impressed!"
