What should a book marketing plan include?
A book marketing plan connects a defined readership with an accurate book presentation, suitable channels, a relevant offer, and measurable follow-up. IME helps authors select distribution, launch, creator, media, or event support around the actual starting point. The campaign should identify the work, budget, responsibilities, and review measures before promotion begins.
Give the reader a clear reason to take the next step.
A published book and a list of promotional tactics do not yet form a campaign. Each activity needs a reader, a message, and a useful destination.
Start with what you want a suitable reader to understand. Then decide where that reader is likely to encounter the book and what action makes sense: reading a sample, ordering a copy, requesting a resource, attending a session, or contacting you.
Review the complete experience before paying for more exposure. A promising interview still needs a usable author page. A storefront still needs clear product information and fulfillment. A campaign needs permission-based follow-up and a way to distinguish attention from orders or qualified conversations.

Which starting point sounds like yours?
Open the closest match to review the decisions worth discussing.
01My book is not yet ready
Coordinate reader positioning and launch preparation with the editorial and production schedule. Avoid sending traffic to incomplete assets.
02My book is available but hard to find
Review metadata, descriptions, author pages, ordering routes, and the relevance of existing outreach before adding more channels.
03I want opportunities beyond book sales
Define the relationship between the book and speaking, media, teaching, consulting, or other offers. Select a relevant next step for the reader.
Decisions worth making early.
| Decision | Why the decision matters |
|---|---|
| Campaign objective | Choose the primary outcome before deciding how to measure performance. |
| Working budget | Separate professional fees from advertising, products, platforms, and external costs. |
| Response handling | Assign responsibility for inquiries, fulfillment, calls, and follow-up. |

What happens on the strategy call?
We review your idea or manuscript, publishing goals, and starting point. You leave with a clearer view of relevant services and next steps.
How do I choose the right level of support?
Tell us what you have completed and where you need help. We assess the manuscript or existing assets and outline a suitable scope.
What happens before work begins?
Your written proposal identifies deliverables, fees, responsibilities, approvals, and schedule. Review the agreement before authorizing the project.
Is book marketing the same as publicity?
Publicity focuses on editorial attention and media conversations. Marketing is broader and includes positioning, offers, channels, campaigns, and reader follow-up. Distribution makes ordering possible and serves a different function.
Which campaign should I start with?
Start with the constraint closest to the reader’s decision. If ordering is difficult, review access. If the message is unclear, review positioning. If the assets are ready, discuss suitable outreach or traffic.
What should a marketing report show?
Agree on channel activity, spending, response, and outcomes relevant to your goal. Separate impressions, clicks, leads, orders, qualified conversations, and revenue so a large attention number does not obscure the result you need.
