## OBJECTIVE
Drive 3,000 direct sales of "Quantum Leadership: Mastering Uncertainty in Business" by Alex Rivera within 90 days post-launch (target date: Q4 2024), measured via Gumroad sales dashboard, equating to $45,000 revenue at $15/book average price.

## TARGET AUDIENCE
- **Primary segment**: C-suite executives aged 40-55, 70% male/30% female, household income $250K+, active on LinkedIn (daily users with 5K+ connections), in "frustrated awareness" emotional state (feeling overwhelmed by market volatility post-AI boom), mid-funnel buying stage (have read HBR articles on leadership but not committed to a full book).
- **Key insight**: They need to see bite-sized proof of "quantum mindset" frameworks (e.g., superposition decision-making) via relatable case studies from Fortune 500 leaders to feel an urgent "aha" moment that this book will give them a 20% edge in boardroom decisions.

## TACTICAL PLAN

## CONTENT REQUIREMENTS
- **Quantum Decision Cheat Sheet**: 5-page PDF, 1,200 words, Canva template with book cover branding, for LinkedIn lead ads and email welcome; VA writes under author review.
- **7-Email Nurture Sequence**: HTML emails, 250-400 words each, ConvertKit template matching book cover colors, for ConvertKit; VA writes, author approves.
- **LinkedIn Ad Creatives (5 variants)**: Static images (1080x1080px) + video (15-sec testimonial-style), 100-char headlines/200-char copy, for LinkedIn Campaign Manager; Agency designs copy/graphics.
- **Live Event Scripts (3x)**: 800-word outline per event, Google Doc format, for LinkedIn Audio; Author writes core, agency adds pitch.
- **Repurposed Clips**: 30-sec videos (vertical 9:16), 50-word captions, for TikTok/YouTube/LinkedIn; VA edits/scripts from raw StreamYard footage.

## SUCCESS METRICS
- **Book Sales**: Track via Gumroad dashboard revenue/sales count; baseline 0, 90-day target 3,000.
- **Lead Conversion Rate**: Measure email open-to-sale funnel in ConvertKit (sales attributed via UTM tags); baseline 2%, 90-day target 8%.
- **LinkedIn Engagement Rate**: Impressions-to-lead form completes in LinkedIn Campaign Manager; baseline 1%, 90-day target 4%.

## RISK & MITIGATION
- **Risk 1**: LinkedIn ad fatigue from saturated executive audience leading to <2% CTR. **Mitigation**: Rotate 5 creatives weekly with A/B testing in Campaign Manager and pause underperformers after 1K impressions.
- **Risk 2**: Low live event turnout due to C-suite scheduling conflicts. **Mitigation**: Promote via personalized LinkedIn DMs to 500 warm leads from author's network 48 hours prior using Expandi tool.

## BUDGET ESTIMATE
$8,000-$15,000 (low: organic-heavy; high: aggressive ad scaling); single biggest cost driver: LinkedIn ads at $4,000-$8,000 for 200K impressions targeting premium audience.
