## OBJECTIVE
|
||||
Drive 3,000 pre-order sales on Amazon for "Echoes of the Forgotten Realm" by Alex Thorne within 90 days, measured via Amazon KDP dashboard sales reports, turning awareness into committed purchases for this epic fantasy debut centered on lost magic and ancient prophecies.
|
||||
|
||||
## TARGET AUDIENCE
|
||||
- **Primary segment**: Fantasy enthusiasts aged 18-35 (60% women), active on TikTok (BookTok) and Instagram Reels, in the interest/awareness buying stage, feeling nostalgic for immersive worlds like "The Name of the Wind" but underserved by recent generic fantasy releases.
|
||||
- **Key insight**: They need to feel the electric pull of rediscovering forbidden magic through teaser visuals of glowing runes and prophecy whispers, evoking "what if my life had hidden magic?" to spark binge-pre-order urgency.
|
||||
|
||||

## SUCCESS METRICS
|
||||
- **Pre-Order Sales**: Track daily via Amazon KDP reports; baseline 0, 90-day target 3,000.
|
||||
- **Video Views to Link Clicks Ratio**: Measure via TikTok Pixel and Bitly links; baseline 1%, 90-day target 5%.
|
||||
- **Challenge Participation**: Count #ForgottenRealmProphecy duets via TikTok search; baseline 0, 90-day target 500.
|
||||
|
||||
## RISK & MITIGATION
|
||||
- **Low Algorithm Pickup**: Algorithm favors established accounts; mitigate by seeding initial views via 3 paid promo boosts ($100 each) on Days 15-20 to hit 10k views threshold.
|
||||
- **Influencer Flakiness**: Micro-influencers may ghost; mitigate by requiring 50% upfront payment via PayPal and contracts with 48-hour delivery clauses.
|
||||
|
||||
## BUDGET ESTIMATE
|
||||
$4,500-$7,500 (low/high); single biggest cost driver: TikTok ads ($3,000-$5,000 for 40 days at $50-100/day CPM-optimized spend).
