Author Virtual Assistant

NOTE: I require a face-to-face Zoom call before considering any project. THANKS AUTHOR! I help authors do the next right thing. Read on to see how I will assist with your Labor of Love. The author's life is a journey, and I can help you navigate the terrain. I have 19 years of experience in the newspaper industry, and 12 years in the book biz. I have worked with many authors and businesses. I offer: ​√ General Virtual Assistance √ Amazon A+ Content √ Book Launch Strategies √ ARC Management √ Newsletter Design & Management √ StoryOrigin Assistance √ BookFunnel Assistance √ Newsletter Swap Management ​√ Author Consultations ​√ Amazon Optimization √ Branding Assistance √ Workbooks ​√ Soft-Sell Coaching ​√ Research ​√ Design materials ​√ Static social graphics ​√ One page ​√ Sell sheets ​√ Press pitches ​√ Press releases ​√ Promotion management √ Weebly website assistance And so much more. My experience: ★ 3 years owner of my Author VA business where I have worked with numerous authors. ★ 2 years Marketing Manager for a publishing company. ★ 12 years total in the book industry. ★ 19 years at 4 newspapers = invaluable experience with pagination, magazine layout and ad design, darkroom manager, reporting, and editing. I understand the creative process and I provide that crucial support that authors and creators need. A few things you should know: • I love working with fiction authors, especially Christian fiction! But non-fiction authors, you're my people too! • I enjoy long-term clients who just need someone to take the wheel and handle tasks or teach them how. • Is there a platform or process you don't want to learn? In many cases, I can take the lead and even teach you. • Short-term clients, let's talk! There are many ways I can assist you. The book industry moves quickly and I am a firm believer in continuous education. The more I know, the more I can help YOU! I am currently learning to: ​√ Create lead magnets in Atticus ​√ Use Prolific Works ​√ IngramSpark, Share and Sell ​√ Best methods for Direct Sales A few things not in my wheelhouse: • I do not publish books. • I do not format books for Amazon. • ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​I do, however, create digital marketing tools, workbooks, and some reader magnets. • I am not an expert in Amazon Ads. You need an expert - that's not me. • I am not a TikToker. • I cannot/will not guarantee sales or reviews. • I prefer to work with authors who want to build a solid foundation and understand that the book industry is a marathon, not a sprint. If this is you, let's talk... I look forward to hearing all about your book!
