I start by gathering all the essential details for promoting your book: cover art, book length, blurb, tropes, trigger warnings, and your author bio. These elements form the foundation of your ARC campaign.

Create ARC Sendout Toolkit

I craft a customized ARC Toolkit with:

  • Pre-written captions

This equips your readers and ARC Team with everything they need to promote your book effectively.

Distribute ARC

Two weeks before release, I use BookFunnel’s ARC scheduling tool to distribute the ARC, send follow-up emails, and provide review reminders to maintain organization.

Social Interaction

I actively engage with ARC shares and tags, re-sharing posts, responding to comments, and boosting visibility while building a sense of community.

Release Day Preparation

I prepare a tailored Release Day Toolkit with:

  • Custom graphics
