Testimonials
"Working with Alan was a really great experience! Our meeting was scheduled just 2 hours after the initial contact, and in that time, he had thoroughly researched my book and its presence online, analyzed the market audience, and identified key strategic moves to help my book sell better. He was relatable and easy to talk to, offering his own experience, and easy actionable next steps. Overall, working with Alan helped boost my confidence in marketing my self-published book, and I highly recommend his services!"
- Samantha Pritchard, Author of I Can Be Fit!
"Alan was so helpful and really gave me good, actionable things to do to market my book. He helped me identify my target audience and understand how and where to market to them. He also identified new avenues of marketing and selling my book and some really good ideas to come up with content to share to help me grow my audience. At the end, I have a very useful document with all of the information we went over and a plan to go forward. It can seem really overwhelming to try to create a marketing campaign as an indie author and with Alan's help, I feel much more confident and much less overwhelmed. "
