### Post 1
- **HEADLINE:** Indie authors: 90% of launches fail due to one overlooked step.

We reverse-engineer: Start with reader avatars, seed email lists 8 weeks out, and deploy targeted ads. One client went from 0 to 4-figure launch week.  

Value tip: Map your top 100 dream readers today. Use LinkedIn searches for genre enthusiasts.  

This scales your reach without gatekeepers.  
- **CTA:** Connect and DM "AUDIT" for your free launch checklist.

- **CTA:** Comment your funnel weak spot—I'll share a fix.

### Post 3
