Receipts or It Didn’t Happen
Let’s Clear a Few Things Up
What exactly do I get when I purchase the Author Marketing Roadmap?
You’ll receive a personalized marketing roadmap based on your quiz responses, including your genre, goals, platform preferences, time commitment, and budget. It includes a focused marketing strategy, detailed action steps, bonus platform-specific tips, and guidance on whether you need a website.
Is this roadmap really personalized or just a template?
It’s 100% customized. Your answers to the quiz generate a unique strategy that’s tailored to you—your publishing path, book type, and marketing comfort zone. This is not a one-size-fits-all PDF.
Who is this for?
This roadmap is made for authors at any stage, from idea to launch and beyond. Whether you’re traditionally published, self-published, or somewhere in between, it gives you clarity on your next best marketing move.
Do I need to have a big budget to use this roadmap?
Nope. Your roadmap is built around your current budget, whether that’s $0 or $5,000. You’ll get strategies that work with what you’re willing and able to invest.
I hate social media. Will this still help me?
Yes. If social media isn’t your thing, the quiz will route you toward other channels like Public Relations or Paid Media that don’t require constant posting. You won’t be told to “just go viral.”
What if I’ve already started marketing?
Great! Your roadmap will help you figure out what’s working, what’s not, and where to double down. It’s perfect for refocusing and cutting through the noise.
How long does it take to receive the roadmap after the quiz?
Immediately. Once you complete the quiz and submit payment, your personalized roadmap will be delivered straight to your inbox within minutes.
Is there a refund policy?
Yes. If you don’t feel more confident and equipped after receiving your roadmap, email us within 7 days and we’ll refund your purchase. No hoops, no hassle.
Do I need a website first?
Nope. But your roadmap will tell you whether a website is worth prioritizing based on your situation. And we include bonus guidance if/when you’re ready to build one.
