## TIKTOK / REELS (5 concepts)

### Concept 1
- **HOOK (first 3 seconds)**: "Your book flopped? Watch this."
- **VIDEO CONCEPT**: Quick-cut montage: Sad author → stats pop-up (90% books fail) → screen recordings of ad setup, sales spike → happy dance with book sales graph exploding.
- **CTA**: "DM 'REEL' for your free hook template."

### Concept 2
- **HOOK (first 3 seconds)**: "Steal this bestseller formula."
- **VIDEO CONCEPT**: Text overlays with 3-step demo: 1) ARC list build (phone typing), 2) Viral Reel script (acting it out), 3) Ad funnel (graph animation). Energetic music, end with client testimonial clip.
- **CTA**: "Comment 'FORMULA' to grab it free."

### Concept 3
- **HOOK (first 3 seconds)**: "Authors: Stop wasting ad money."
- **VIDEO CONCEPT**: "Do this" vs. "Don't do that" skit: Wrong (generic ad) flops, right (targeted hook) soars. Split-screen with real metrics, fast-paced transitions.
- **CTA**: "Save & share with your writer group."

### Concept 4
- **HOOK (first 3 seconds)**: "From 0 to 10k sales in 30 days?"
- **VIDEO CONCEPT**: Day-by-day calendar flip with quick wins: TikTok trends, email blasts, influencer DMs. Real client footage blurred for privacy, upbeat track.

### Concept 5

### Post 1
- **HEADLINE**: 90% of books fail to break even. Here's the marketing gap authors overlook.
- **BODY**: Most authors pour everything into writing, then launch into a void. No pre-built audience. No ad strategy. Result? Crickets on Amazon.

At Crimson Leaf Marketing, we bridge that gap with data-backed campaigns. For one debut novelist, we built a 5,000-email ARC list in 2 weeks, driving 3,000 first-week sales.

The key? Start with hyper-targeted ads on Facebook and TikTok, layered with organic Reels that convert at 8%.

Value comes from testing: We A/B 20 creatives per campaign to find winners fast.

Don't launch blind. Audit your setup today.
- **CTA**: Message me "AUDIT" for a free 7-point book marketing review.

### Post 2
- **HEADLINE**: Why indie authors hit sales walls—and the 3 levers to shatter them.
- **BODY**: Sales stall at 100 copies? You're likely missing the flywheel: reviews, ads, and email.

Lever 1: ARC programs that generate 50+ launch-day reviews. We automate this for 20% conversion.

Lever 2: Amazon PPC mastery. Our clients see 4x ROAS by bidding on long-tail keywords.

Lever 3: Cross-platform funnels. TikTok hooks feed Instagram sales, feeding email nurture.

One client scaled from 200/month to 10k after this trio.

Publishers take note: Same playbook works for backlists.
- **CTA**: Connect and comment your biggest sales blocker.

### Post 3
- **HEADLINE**: The hidden cost of DIY book marketing: 6 months wasted.
- **BODY**: Authors spend hours on Canva graphics and scattershot posts. Zero ROI.

We skip the grind: Proprietary tools predict ad winners before spend. One fantasy series hit #1 with $2k budget.

Process: Audience mapping → Creative testing → Scale-up.

Professional marketing isn't expense—it's investment. ROI averages 5:1 for our fiction clients.

Non-fiction authors: Your thought leadership amplifies with LinkedIn carousels we optimize.
- **CTA**: Book a 15-min strategy call via Calendly in bio.

### Post 4
- **HEADLINE**: Bestsellers aren't born—they're engineered. Inside our launch playbook.
- **BODY**: Step 1: 90-day pre-launch buzz via micro-influencers (under 10k followers convert best).

Step 2: Day 1 ad blitz across Amazon, FB, TikTok—capped at 10% of projected revenue.

Step 3: Post-launch sustain with review chaser emails (65% open rate).

A thriller author: 12k sales in 60 days. Proof in graphs we share on request.

Agencies charge premium for results. We deliver.
- **CTA**: DM "PLAYBOOK" for a sample PDF.

### Post 5
- **HEADLINE**: Reviews aren't luck—they're a system. Scale yours without begging.
- **BODY**: Begging friends kills momentum. We use automated funnels: ARC readers auto-prompted at 80% read.

Result? 100+ reviews Week 1, boosting algo rank.

Layer with social proof ads: Testimonial carousels at 12% CTR.

One romance client: From 4.2 to 4.8 stars, sales doubled.

For publishers: Multi-title review engines save teams months.
- **CTA**: Share this if you've chased reviews—let's fix it.
