The problem isn't the writing. It's the marketing.

Marketing a book is a full-time job you never signed up for.

You wrote the book. That was the hard part. But then comes the other 90%: finding reviewers, writing ad copy, posting on social media, optimizing your Amazon listing, emailing book bloggers, running promotions, tracking what's working. Most authors either burn out or give up.

40-60 hours per launch

The average author spends on marketing activities. That's a month of writing, gone.

$2,000-$10,000

What a human publicist charges per campaign. Economics that don't work for a $4.99 ebook.

250 copies

Average lifetime sales for a self-published book. Not because it's bad. Because nobody saw it.

Not a tool. An employee.

Shelfbreak doesn't generate reports for you to act on. It acts.
