A diagnostic deliverable for authors who have done the work, published the book, and are watching it sit invisible. We map the language gap, the metadata gap, and the discovery-surface gap — then hand you a prioritized 30/60/90 plan built from your book, not a generic services menu.
Why this exists
You can run flawless ads at the wrong category and lose money on every click. You can hire a publicist for a book whose metadata is locked out of the algorithm. You can post on BookTok for a year and never reach the readers whose search language doesn’t match a single word in your blurb.
Before anyone should spend a dollar on execution, someone has to map where your book can actually win. That’s what this is.
The methodology
Every Map moves through the same five stages. Skip one and the next one collapses.
What your book is doing that you can't see from the inside.
We research your category, your comp titles, and the language readers in your space are actually typing into search. We come back with three to five specific findings about your book that you could not have arrived at on your own — not opinions, not generalizations, evidence.
The real problem is almost never the one you've been solving for.
Most authors think they have a marketing problem. Most of the time, it is a language alignment problem, a metadata problem, or a discovery-surface problem. We name which one you actually have — and why every dollar spent on the wrong diagnosis has been quietly wasted.
What the visibility gap has already taken — and is still taking.
Lost sales are only the surface. Underneath sits the reader relationships that never compounded, the platform that never activated, the speaking and podcast invitations that never arrived, and the next book that became quietly harder to start. We make the full cost visible so the decision becomes obvious.
What your book looks like once the gap is closed.
We map the specific discovery surfaces, reader communities, retailer categories, and search terms your book should be showing up in within 30, 60, and 90 days. Not a vague promise of growth — a concrete picture of where readers will find you next.
A focused plan built from your book, not a generic services menu.
You leave with a prioritized 30/60/90 rollout — the 3 highest-leverage moves first, the rest sequenced behind them. If only one or two of our services would actually move the needle for you, we say so plainly. We do not sell stacks that don't fit.
What you receive
A written report you can open six months from now and still act on. Plus a 30-minute walkthrough so nothing in it is left to interpretation.
The questions worth asking
Yes. Every Book Visibility Map follows the same structure shown above — the findings are customized to your book. Request a redacted sample using the form and we'll send one within 24 hours.
Across recent engagements we typically see a 2–5× lift in organic impressions within 60 days of executing the map, and measurable BSR movement inside the first ad cycle when paid is part of the plan. Results depend on cover, blurb, and category fit — which is exactly what the Map diagnoses first. We share ranges, not single hero numbers.
A 30-minute kickoff call, read-only access to your KDP dashboard, your final manuscript and cover files, and roughly 2 hours of your time in week one for approvals. Everything after that is on us.
Our deepest playbooks are KDP fiction, memoir, and BookTok-friendly genres. If your book sits outside that, we tell you upfront which 2–3 of our services will actually move the needle and which won't. The Map is honest before it is anything else.
5 to 7 business days from the moment we receive your book and KDP access. Rush turnaround is available.
Get the diagnosis first. Then decide what — if anything — is worth executing.
