I've done this hundreds of times and with all genres, so you can see hundreds of positive reviews from my clients here on my Profile page. Be sure to take a look at the following docs in the Portfolio section here on my profile: 1. My ”Client Results Spreadsheet” (which shows all of my clients from the past 2 years, which services they ordered from me, and the profit that resulted) 2. My ”Client Sales Charts” (screenshots that my clients took of their Amazon sales charts after my marketing) Put simply, my 4-step process is very “turn-key” for my clients, as I do 100% of the work for them, and with each step being optional: STEP #1: I supply you with the Contact List files of your choice (just a few examples below): + 850 Bookstores + 2,730 Libraries + 420 Book Review Blogs + 55 Book Review Podcasts + 180 Book Review Youtubers + 1,000 Health and Wellness Blogs + 1,000 Business Blogs + 420 Mom Blogs + 600 Self-Help / Self-Improvement Blogs + 750 Family Lifestyle Blogs + 250 Children's Book Review Blogs + 375 Mental Health Blogs + And many, many more! STEP #2: I write Custom Outreach Emails to each Contact List for you STEP #3: I send out the thousands of emails for you and I'm able to guarantee a minimum Open Rate of at least 40% STEP #4: The contacts then buy, review, and share your book, so their millions of followers can see it and buy it as well I also offer an incredibly in-depth 40-page Book Marketing Guide that goes through literally every tactic that authors should be doing to market their books, including links of where to do these things, when to do these things, and how best to do them.

Hi, I'm Noman, an academic writer and researcher with degrees in Computer Science (BSc) and Business Administration (MBA), and completed projects on Upwork with a 100% Job Success Score. Most clients come to me for one of two things: getting a thesis, dissertation, or research paper written, edited, or polished to a high academic standard, or making sense of their data, with SPSS and Excel analyses written up in clear, report-ready language. Here's what I can help with: Thesis, dissertation, and research paper writing, editing, and proofreading (APA, MLA, Chicago, Harvard) Quantitative and qualitative data analysis using SPSS and Excel, with results sections you can drop straight into your report Literature reviews, systematic reviews, and research proposals Business reports, case studies, and MBA-level assignments PowerPoint and Canva presentations when research needs to become something visual Every piece of writing comes with a Turnitin plagiarism report, so originality is never in question, and I use AI tools only to speed up early research, with everything fact-checked and rewritten by me before it reaches you. I usually respond within a few hours. If you're not sure your project is the right fit for me, send me the brief . I'll tell you honestly, no pressure either way.
