Frequently Asked Questions

My practice is 100% focused on direct client execution. Book sales are driven by conversion-optimized store pages, targeted ad networks, automated email funnels, and algorithmic rank stacking. They are not driven by making social media posts about marketing. I made a deliberate decision over ten years ago to invest all of my professional time and energy into client work rather than personal brand building. My reputation has been built entirely through private referrals and verifiable client results. The fact that I have sustained a thriving practice for over a decade without any social media presence is, in itself, the strongest evidence that my approach works.

All communication is conducted exclusively via email at amandabenedetta3@gmail.com. This policy exists for several important reasons. First, written communication ensures that every strategic decision, creative revision, performance report, and campaign adjustment is fully documented and permanently recorded. You will always have a complete, searchable record of your entire project history. Second, written communication allows me to provide thorough, carefully considered responses that include data references, strategic rationale, and clear action items. Third, asynchronous email communication respects both your time and mine by eliminating scheduling conflicts and time zone complications. I have found that this email-only model produces superior outcomes for both parties compared to live conversation formats.

Over the past decade, I have managed campaigns across Contemporary Romance, Dark Romance, Romantasy, Romantic Suspense, Epic Fantasy, Urban Fantasy, Science Fiction, Space Opera, LitRPG, Psychological Thrillers, Domestic Suspense, Cozy Mysteries, Police Procedurals, Historical Fiction, Memoirs, Business, Leadership, Self-Help, Personal Finance, Health and Wellness, and True Crime. If your genre is not listed here, please submit an inquiry and I will provide an honest assessment of whether my expertise aligns with your specific market.

For a comprehensive release campaign, a 60 to 90-day pre-launch runway is ideal to allow adequate time for ARC management, metadata indexing, pre-order momentum building, and advertising campaign preparation. For backlist revivals, catalog audits, and ongoing ad management, campaigns can be scheduled based on quarterly availability. I recommend submitting your inquiry as early as possible, as my client roster is limited and availability fills quickly.

No ethical marketer guarantees specific retail rankings, as retailer algorithms fluctuate continuously and are influenced by factors outside any marketer's control. What I provide is a battle-tested, ten-year methodology that optimizes every controllable variable including conversion rates, ad targeting, pricing elasticity, and promotional velocity to give your book the highest statistical probability of commercial success. I am transparent about expected outcomes and will provide realistic projections based on your specific genre, catalog, and budget during the inquiry process.

Both. I build tailored strategies specifically optimized for the unique economics of each model. For Kindle Select authors, I focus on maximizing KENP page-read velocity and algorithmic visibility within the Amazon ecosystem. For wide authors, I engineer multi-retailer shelf placement, international growth, and cross-platform promotional strategies across Apple Books, Kobo, Google Play, Barnes and Noble, and Direct-to-Consumer platforms. For hybrid authors, I develop customized strategies that leverage the strengths of both models.

Every engagement is custom-scoped based on the size of your catalog, current project phase, service requirements, and commercial objectives. Full-service launch architecture, advertising management, and catalog revivals are structured as flat-fee advisory packages or monthly retainer engagements. I provide a detailed written proposal with transparent pricing after reviewing your initial inquiry. Submit a campaign inquiry with your project details and I will respond within 24 to 48 business hours with a customized assessment and investment structure.

You receive comprehensive written performance reports delivered via email at regular intervals throughout your campaign. Reports include total spend, impressions, clicks, click-through rates, cost-per-click, conversions, cost-per-acquisition, Return on Ad Spend (ROAS), and all other relevant key performance indicators. Every report includes strategic analysis explaining what the numbers mean for your business and detailed recommendations for the next optimization cycle. All reports are permanently documented in your email archive for reference at any time.

Absolutely. My email-based communication model makes geographic location irrelevant. I work with authors and publishers worldwide. The asynchronous nature of email communication eliminates time zone complications entirely. Whether you are based in North America, Europe, the United Kingdom, Australia, Asia, or anywhere else in the world, the quality and responsiveness of my service remains identical.

Both. I offer one-time catalog diagnostic audits, blurb and conversion optimization packages, and ad account assessments as standalone engagements. I also offer ongoing monthly retainer packages for authors who want continuous campaign management, advertising optimization, and strategic advisory. The right engagement structure depends on your specific situation, goals, and budget. Submit an inquiry and I will recommend the most appropriate option for your needs.
