## TIKTOK / REELS (5 concepts)

### Concept 1
- **HOOK (first 3 seconds):** On-screen: "Your book flopped? Watch this." (Dramatic music sting)  
- **VIDEO CONCEPT:** Quick cuts: Sad author stats → Agency strategy breakdown (hooks, ads) → Bestseller graph spike → Happy author dancing with books. End with text overlay of results.  
- **CTA:** "DM 'REEL' for your custom strategy!"

### Concept 2
- **HOOK (first 3 seconds):** Spoken: "3 seconds to hook a reader... or lose them." (Book slams shut)  
- **VIDEO CONCEPT:** Demo bad hook (boring read) vs. good hook (explosive plot tease from a real book). Transition to "We craft these for you" with agency clips. Upbeat trend music.  
- **CTA:** "Comment your book genre for a hook idea!"

### Concept 3
- **HOOK (first 3 seconds):** On-screen: "From 0 to 10k sales in 30 days?" (Question mark explodes)  
- **VIDEO CONCEPT:** Testimonial-style: Actor as author shares "before" struggle, "after" success with sales numbers popping up. Cut to BTS agency work. Viral dance trend overlay.  
- **CTA:** "Link in bio for your 30-day blitz!"

### Concept 4
- **HOOK (first 3 seconds):** Spoken: "Authors: Stop this mistake NOW." (Red X over "posting cover only")  
- **VIDEO CONCEPT:** Montage of wrong posts (static covers) vs. right (dynamic Reels, stories). Show engagement stats rising. End with book flying off shelf animation.  
- **CTA:** "Save & follow for daily tips!"

### Concept 5
- **HOOK (first 3 seconds):** On-screen: "Bestseller secret revealed." (Curtain pull effect)  
- **VIDEO CONCEPT:** Whispered "secrets": Social proof, email lists, Reels. Visuals of each tactic in action with real client examples. Build to "We do it all."  
- **CTA:** "Duet this with your book cover!"

## LINKEDIN (5 posts)

### Post 1
- **HEADLINE:** 90% of self-published books sell under 100 copies. Here's the fix.  
- **BODY:** Authors pour years into their manuscripts, only to watch them vanish in the Amazon abyss. The culprit? Invisible marketing.  

  At Crimson Leaf Marketing, we deploy platform-specific strategies: Instagram Reels for virality, LinkedIn thought leadership for niche authority, and targeted ads that convert browsers to buyers.  

  One client, a debut thriller author, went from 50 sales to 5,000 in 90 days. Data-driven, not guesswork.  

  Your book deserves visibility. Let's audit your current approach.  
- **CTA:** Message me "AUDIT" for a free 15-minute strategy session.

### Post 2
- **HEADLINE:** Why your book launch feels like shouting into the void.  
- **BODY:** Launches fail not from bad writing, but from mismatched messaging. Readers scroll past generic "buy my book" posts.  

  We craft hooks that resonate: Genre-specific pain points on TikTok, professional credibility on LinkedIn, visual storytelling on Instagram.  

  Result? A recent nonfiction client built a 10k email list pre-launch, guaranteeing day-one sales.  

  Value comes first—sales follow. Ready to reposition?  
- **CTA:** Connect and comment your genre for tailored advice.

### Post 3
- **HEADLINE:** The ROI of book marketing: Numbers authors ignore.  
- **BODY:** Indie authors invest in editing and covers, but skip marketing budgets. Mistake. A $2k campaign yields 10x returns via sustained visibility.  

  Our packages include custom content packs, ad management, and analytics tracking—proven across romance, sci-fi, and business books.  

  Track record: 200% average sales uplift in first quarter.  

  Scale your authorship into a business.

### Post 4
- **HEADLINE:** Reels aren't "trendy"—they're your sales engine.  
- **BODY:** Short-form video dominates discovery. Yet most authors post static covers. Wrong move.  

  We produce 3-second hooks that tease plots, amplify reviews, and drive pre-orders—tailored to your audience's scroll habits.  

  Case: Memoir author hit 1M views, translating to 20k book sales.  

  Professionalize your promo without the learning curve.  
- **CTA:** Book a 20-min Reel strategy call in my calendar link.

### Post 5
- **HEADLINE:** Authors: Your network is your net worth. Build it right.  
- **BODY:** Solo launches limit reach. Strategic networking—via LinkedIn threads, IG collabs, Twitter spaces—multiplies it.  

  We orchestrate partnerships: ARC reviewers, influencer shoutouts, cross-promo bundles.  

  Outcome: Fantasy series author gained 50k followers, perpetual backlist sales.  

  Turn connections into revenue.  
- **CTA:** Share this if you've undervalued networking—let's chat.
