Book Visibility & Amazon Positioning Strategist
I don't promote books — I fix the structural positioning gaps keeping your book buried in Amazon's algorithm. Through competitive research, category auditing, and data-driven placement, I get your book in front of readers already searching for it.
Why Your Book Isn't Selling
70% of readers discover books by browsing categories. If you're in "Fiction > General" instead of your specific niche, thousands of daily browsers looking for exactly your type of book will never see it.
When readers search "small town romance" or "dark vampire thriller," does your book appear? If not, you're losing hundreds of potential readers every week to books that captured those searches.
60% of genre readers find new books through curated Goodreads lists. If you're not strategically placed in high-traffic lists, you're missing tens of thousands of readers actively seeking recommendations.
Books ranking above 500K don't appear in browse results, search recommendations, or "Customers also bought" suggestions. You're not competing — you're hidden.
The Process
This isn't temporary marketing. This is permanent positioning infrastructure that keeps working after I'm done.
Step 01
Every relevant data point from Amazon and Goodreads collected before any diagnosis begins. Breadcrumb trail, category slots, review velocity, rating averages, author profile status.
Step 02
The breadcrumb is Amazon's internal routing system — more honest than surface categories and more damaging when wrong. Every check: store format, depth, identity confirmation.
Step 03
Comp authors, series identity, protagonist type, and setting turned into discoverable architecture across both Kindle and print. Not keyword stuffing — positioning strategy.
Step 04
Genre shelf presence, follower pipeline, and community list engagement built around the reader already navigating that platform looking for exactly what you wrote.
Step 05
Every confirmed gap is scored and ranked. The top gaps become the focus. A diagnosis built on accurate data outperforms guesswork every single time.
Step 06
Clear, specific, actionable — framed around your book's identity and the reader already out there looking for it. Not a checklist. A direction you can act on immediately.
What Authors Say
"I had no idea my Amazon categories were killing my visibility. Emmett restructured everything — categories, keywords, positioning — and the BSR drop spoke for itself. She knows how the algorithm actually works."
Let's analyze where your book is, where it should be, and how to get it in front of the readers already searching for it.
