Before your next chapter

A few questions, answered.
Will you handle my marketing for me?

Yes. Both Managed and Elite include hands-on marketing outreach. Elite adds bulk order pitching, expanded outreach, and direct strategy access.

Do I need to spend thousands to start?

No. Hands-on marketing starts at $99 per month with Managed. These are recurring monthly memberships; your total spend depends on your plan and how long you remain a member.

Does membership guarantee book sales?

No. We work to create opportunities and connect books with readers and buyers. Sales, placements, acquisitions, and reviews remain the decision of independent readers and venues.

Where do I join and manage my membership?

Every Join on Patreon button takes you to our membership page, where you can compare the current benefits, join, and manage your subscription.
