Book Marketing Services
Book marketing is included in Harmony Publishing's packages from Complete at $1,299: Complete ($1,299), Premium ($2,499), Rockstar ($4,999) and Legend ($9,999) each add more, from book promotion up to launch plans and media outreach. Harmony Publishing is a self-publishing company: authors keep 100% of their royalties and all rights.
Our book marketing helps a published book find its readers. It covers book promotion, social media creatives, media and press release placement and, in the top packages, launch support. It is part of our publishing packages, so it comes with the editing, cover, formatting, ISBN and distribution your book needs first. We don't promise sales: no one honestly can.

What a book marketing agency can and cannot do
A marketing service can make a book easier to find and easier to say yes to: a clear description, graphics for social media, a press release sent to the right outlets, a plan for launch week. It cannot make readers buy, and it works best on a book that is already well edited and well designed. That is why our marketing sits inside a publishing package rather than apart from it.
For the wider picture, from manuscript to published book, see book publishing and marketing. If you publish on Amazon, see Amazon KDP publishing with Harmony.
How it works
- Tell us about your book and your readers when you ask for a quote.
- We recommend the package that includes the marketing you need.
- We edit, format and design your book, assign the ISBN and barcode, and publish it.
- We carry out the promotion your package includes, and you keep 100% of your royalties and rights.
A full package takes 4–6 weeks standard; occasionally up to 8 weeks.

Book marketing FAQs
What are book marketing services?
Book marketing services help readers find your book after it is published: promotion, social media content, press releases and media outreach. They do not replace a good book. They make sure a finished, well-edited book is not published into silence.
How much do book marketing services cost?
We don't sell marketing as separate line items. It is part of our publishing packages, and the cheapest package that includes it is Complete at $1,299. Complete ($1,299) includes Book promotion; Premium ($2,499) includes Creatives for Social Media and Media & Press Release Placement and Book Promotion; Rockstar ($4,999) includes Creatives for Social Media and 30-Day Post-Launch Marketing Management Window and Media & Press Release Placement and Book Promotion; Legend ($9,999) includes Book Launching Plans and Media Outreach & Article Pitching (placement subject to editorial approval) and 4 Press Releases with Media Placement and Advanced Social Media Management and Media Training for the Author. Ask us for a quote if you only want help with marketing.
Can I buy book marketing without publishing with you?
Tell us about your book and what you want marketed. We will say plainly what we can do and quote it. Marketing is built into our packages, so a marketing-only request is handled case by case.
Will marketing guarantee sales?
No. No marketing service can promise sales or bestseller status, and we don't. What we do is a defined set of work: promotion, social media creatives, press release placement and, in the higher packages, launch support and media outreach. See what each package includes above.
What does a press release do for a book?
A press release announces your book to journalists and outlets with the facts they need: what the book is, who wrote it and where to get it. It can lead to coverage, but placement is never certain, and in our Legend package placement is subject to editorial approval.
Do I keep my royalties and rights?
Yes. You keep 100% of your royalties and all rights to your book. Marketing doesn't change that.
When should I start marketing my book?
Before it is published. A launch is easier when the cover, description and categories are ready and your first readers know a date. A full publishing package takes 4–6 weeks standard; occasionally up to 8 weeks.
