5 marketing strategies to help you sell more books in 2025.
That are working right now.
I’ve been testing a lot of marketing strategies over the past year.
And I’ve gone through my list of tests, tactics, and strategies and collected the absolute best ones into the 5 Day Author’s Marketing Roadmap to 2025: 5 classes teaching you 5 of the most effective strategies I’ve found for selling more books.
Four of these classes are on specific topics critical for marketing your books in 2025: Facebook Ads, Amazon Ads, AI, and launching. The fifth class breaks down two roadmaps for building a sustainable author career—one for building to 6-figures, one for building beyond—based on working with multiple 6- and 7-figure authors.
These strategies are working right now. And some of the results are so good that I’ve had to recheck the numbers to make sure they were actually right (they were).
These are specific, step-by-step recipes that you can use in your business immediately. High impact. Immediately actionable. Zero-fluff.
No waiting 10 weeks for results. And no totally out of date things that worked once (but don’t any more).
Any one of these can be worth 10x or more the price of the course if you implement it.
Bold? Yes.
But you can potentially slash your ad costs by 50% or more using the strategy in the Sub-$0.10 CPC Facebook Video Ads (That Actually Convert) class.
Or, in the The Rapid Release Blueprint: Building a New Pen Name to $10k/mo in 4 Months you’ll learn how an author took a brand new pen to $10k/mo. With just 4 books. In 4 months.
Implementing either of those strategies could completely change your 2025 (and beyond).
And that’s just two of the classes.
Let’s talk about the rest of them.

All class recordings are available to watch immediately.
Class 1: Scalable 15-Minute 1 Campaign Amazon Ads

- Build a campaign that ages like wine, getting better with age, rather than crashing and burning suddenly
- Spend up to $50/day with just a single campaign for a single book in larger genres like romance / thriller / mystery / crime (up to $25/day in smaller ones like fantasy or sci-fi) while spending less than 15 minutes a week on ads

Course Access
After you join the course, The 5 Day Author’s Marketing Roadmap to 2025 course material will be available until December 31, 2026. You can watch and review the material as much as you want until then.
Note: unlike some of my other courses where I offer free updates to the material, you will not receive access to future versions of the Author’s Marketing Roadmap if I offer this course again in the future (e.g., if I release a 2026 version next year, you would have to purchase that separately). This is because future versions of the Roadmap would contain different material, so they’d be different courses.
FAQ
Is this course live or pre-recorded?
All the material included in the Roadmap is pre-recorded, so you can immediately jump in and start watching the content.
I don’t want to watch hours of content. Do I have to watch everything in the course to apply the strategies to my books?
No, the course is designed like a buffet: you can pick and choose whatever is most relevant to your business. The strategies are designed to work well together if you want to apply multiple strategies. However, if you’re only interested in a single strategy, you can just dive into that. Each one is designed to stand alone. And even if you only apply one strategy to your books, each one can easily be worth 10x what you paid for the course.
Do the Facebook and Amazon Ad strategies require large budgets to be successful?
No, you can effectively run both of the Facebook video ad strategy and the single campaign Amazon Ad strategy for as little as $10 a day.
Is this material for beginners or more advanced advertisers?
These strategies are usable for people of all skill levels / points in their career. There are more advanced tips and use cases for some of these strategies, so as you get more comfortable with the strategy (or if you already have experience), then you can apply these to your business.
