- **VIDEO CONCEPT:** Quick cuts of common mistakes (bad cover, no ads, ignoring email lists), then me pointing at camera: "Fix these 3, sell 10x." End with client stat pop-up.  
- **CTA:** "Duet your mistake! Follow for fixes."

- **HOOK (first 3 seconds):** Spoken: "Book launch in 7 days? Watch this." (urgent zoom-in)  
- **VIDEO CONCEPT:** Fast checklist: "Day 1: ARC team. Day 3: Teaser reels. Day 7: Live launch." Me acting out each with props, upbeat music.  
- **CTA:** "Save & tag your launch buddy!"

### Concept 3
- **HOOK (first 3 seconds):** On-screen: "$500 ad budget = bestseller?" (question mark explodes)  
- **VIDEO CONCEPT:** Screen record of ad dashboard going from $0 to $2k sales, voiceover explaining targeting hacks for authors.

### Concept 4

### Post 1
- **HEADLINE:** Most authors treat launches like parties without guests. Here's why that fails.  
- **BODY:**  
Book launches demand precision, not hope. Without pre-built buzz, your release drowns in Amazon's algorithm.  

We've engineered 47 launches to top-100 status by focusing on three levers: audience priming, promotional stacking, and post-launch momentum.  

Priming starts 60 days out—ARCs to 200 reviewers build social proof. Stacking hits BookBub, ENT, and targeted ads simultaneously. Momentum? Email sequences that convert 28% of openers.  

Indie authors: Scale smarter, not harder.  
- **CTA:** Connect and message "LAUNCH" for our framework PDF.

### Post 2
- **HEADLINE:** Your book cover isn't art—it's a sales machine. Test this.  
- **BODY:**  
Covers trigger 80% of click decisions on retail sites. Yet most self-pubbed books use DIY designs that scream "skip me."  

A/B testing our client redesigns shows 4.2x click-through lifts. Key? Genre heat maps, thumbnail optimization, and emotional hooks.  

One thriller author went from 12 sales/day to 156 after our pivot. Data over opinion.  

Elevate your thumbnail game.  
- **CTA:** Share your cover link in comments for quick feedback.

### Post 3
- **HEADLINE:** Facebook ads for books: The $0.19-per-sale formula pros use.  
- **BODY:**  
Authors waste $1k+ on broad targeting. Precision audiences—lookalikes of top reviewers in your genre—slash costs.  

Layer interest stacking (e.g., "Stephen King fans + thriller readers") with retargeting cart abandoners. ROAS hits 8x.  

Case: Romance series scaled to 50k units via this. No fluff, just scalable tactics.  

Ready to ad-proof your funnel?  
- **CTA:** DM "ADS" for our targeting blueprint.

### Post 4
- **HEADLINE:** Email lists beat social for authors—by 40x. Build yours now.  
- **BODY:**  
Social algorithms bury posts. Owned lists deliver 42% open rates and direct sales.  

Start with lead magnets: "7-Day Launch Checklist" converts 23% of visitors. Nurture with value—tips, not pitches.  

Client example: 1,200 subs yielded $14k launch weekend. Compound that quarterly.  

Own your audience.  
- **CTA:** Comment "LIST" to get the magnet template.

### Post 5
- **HEADLINE:** 90% of book marketing fails here. Avoid it.  
- **BODY:**  
No unified strategy. Siloed tactics (one ad, one promo) fizzle. Integration wins: Social teases feed email, ads retarget promos.  

Our playbook syncs all channels for 300% ROI uplift. Fantasy author case: Multi-platform blitz hit USA Today list.  

Authors, unify or underperform.

## TWITTER/X THREAD (1 thread, 9 tweets)

- **Tweet 1:** Authors: Your book launch is a bomb without these 7 detonators. Thread: https://t.co/abc123 (1/9)

- **Tweet 2:** 1. No ARC team = zero reviews on day 1. Recruit 100+ via Facebook groups. Amazon algo loves fresh stars. (2/9)

- **Tweet 3:** 2. Ignore thumbnails. 70% of buys are mobile—test covers at 100px. Ugly? Dead on arrival. (3/9)

- **Tweet 4:** 3. Skip email priming. Tease 45 days out to 500 subs. 25% presale conversion is table stakes. (4/9)

- **Tweet 5:** 4. One promo only. Stack BookBub + Bargain Booksy + Freebooksy. Momentum snowballs sales rank. (5/9)

- **Tweet 6:** 5. Broad ads flop. Target "genre readers who bought similar." $0.25/sale possible. (6/9)

- **Tweet 7:** 6. No social hooks. 15-sec Reels teasing cliffhangers build hype cheap. (7/9)

- **Tweet 8:** 7. Post-launch silence. Week 2 emails + upsell series 2 keep rank climbing. (8/9)

- **Final tweet:** Nail these, launch like a pro. Need the full playbook? DM "DETONATORS" at Crimson Leaf. Authors crushing it tag below! 📚🚀 (9/9)
