## TIKTOK / REELS (5 concepts)
|
||||
|
||||
**Concept 1**
|
||||
- **HOOK (first 3 seconds):** "Authors: Your blurb sucks—fix it NOW." (on-screen text flashes)
|
||||
- **VIDEO CONCEPT:** Quick cuts: Bad blurb read dramatically (yawns), good blurb (gasps), side-by-side rewrite demo with sales spike animation. End with my face: "Steal this template."
|
||||
- **CTA:** "Duet your blurb remix!"
|
||||
|
||||
**Concept 2**
|
||||
- **HOOK (first 3 seconds):** "BookTok secret no one tells you." (mysterious zoom)
|
||||
- **VIDEO CONCEPT:** Me scrolling "dead" BookTok, then trending sounds with book hooks—show 3 viral examples, overlay sales results. Fast-paced edits with fire emojis.
|
||||
- **CTA:** "Comment your genre for custom hooks."
|
||||
|
||||
**Concept 3**
|
||||
- **HOOK (first 3 seconds):** "Why your launch flopped." (fail sound effect)
|
||||
- **VIDEO CONCEPT:** Puppet show: Book puppet ignores social, sales crash; smart puppet posts daily, sales soar. Text overlays with 3 fixes.
|
||||
- **CTA:** "Save & follow for launch checklists."
|
||||
|
||||
**Concept 4**
|
||||
- **HOOK (first 3 seconds):** "Free hook that sells 100 copies/day." (cash register ding)
|
||||
- **VIDEO CONCEPT:** Whiteboard animation: Problem → Hook formula → Real client example. Me testing it live on camera.
|
||||
- **CTA:** "DM 'HOOK' for the template PDF."
|
||||
|
||||
**Concept 5**
|
||||
- **HOOK (first 3 seconds):** "Indie authors: Stop this mistake." (red X flashes)
|
||||
- **VIDEO CONCEPT:** Split-screen: Wrong cover (thumbs down reactions), right cover (hearts). Quick Photoshop demo + A/B sales data.
|
||||
- **CTA:** "Tag your cover designer."
|
||||

||||
## LINKEDIN (5 posts)
|
||||
|
||||
**Post 1**
|
||||
- **HEADLINE:** Indie authors: 80% of launches fail on day one. Here's the fix.
|
||||
- **BODY:** Most books launch into silence because creators treat marketing as an afterthought. We audited 100+ campaigns: The common thread? No pre-launch buzz pipeline.
|
||||
|
||||
Build a 30-day system: Week 1, tease ARC reviews. Week 2, daily hooks on Reels. Week 3, email nurtures. Result? 5x average sales velocity.
|
||||
|
||||
One client went from 200 to 2K units Week 1. No paid ads required—just sequencing.
|
||||
- **CTA:** Connect and DM "AUDIT" for your free launch checklist.
|
||||
|
||||
**Post 2**
|
||||
- **HEADLINE:** Book covers aren't art—they're ATMs. Test this.
|
||||
- **BODY:** Authors spend months on manuscripts, days on covers. Flip it: A/B test thumbnails on Instagram Stories before finalizing.
|
||||
|
||||
We ran 50 tests: Winners averaged 40% higher click-throughs. Tools? Canva Pro + polls. Pair with blurb heatmaps for 2x conversions.
|
||||
|
||||
Publishers, scale this across catalogs. Indies, it's your edge.
|
||||
- **CTA:** Share your cover A/B results in comments.
|
||||
|
||||
**Post 3**
|
||||
- **HEADLINE:** Reels outsell Amazon ads for most genres. Proof inside.
|
||||
- **BODY:** Paid ads burn cash fast. Organic Reels? Evergreen traffic. We tracked 20 authors: Top 10% hit 10K views/video, driving 15% direct sales.
|
||||
|
||||
Formula: 3-second hook + genre trope twist + swipe CTA. Fantasy? "What if your hero was the villain?" Post 3x/week.
|
||||
|
||||
Metrics don't lie—pivot now.
|
||||
- **CTA:** Message "REELS" for our swipe file.
|
||||
|
||||
**Post 4**
|
||||
- **HEADLINE:** Pricing your book wrong costs 50% of revenue. Calculate it.
|
||||
- **BODY:** $2.99 impulse buy? Fine for shorts. For novels? Undervalues your IP. Use this: (Word count / 1K) x genre multiplier (Romance: 1.5x, Thriller: 2x).
|
||||
|
||||
Client example: Bumped from $3.99 to $6.99—revenue +73%, readers unchanged. Data from K-lytics confirms.
|
||||
|
||||
Agency pros: Test tiers quarterly.
|
||||
- **CTA:** Comment your word count for a pricing rec.
|
||||
|
||||
**Post 5**
|
||||
- **HEADLINE:** ARC teams are dead. Build this instead.
|
||||
- **BODY:** Email swaps fizzle. Create a VIP launch crew: 50 superfans via targeted IG DMs. Nurture with exclusives.
|
||||
|
||||
Our method: 2-week drip → 300% review rate uplift. Retention? 40% become repeat buyers.
|
||||
|
||||
Scalable for solos or teams.
|
||||
- **CTA:** Book a 15-min strategy call via Calendly link.
