Most launch work happens before release day. We prepare the retailer listing, description and keywords, advance reader copies and review outreach, graphics and a short campaign calendar, so everything is ready when the book goes live.
During release week we coordinate the planned activity, then measure the results against the goals agreed at the start: reviews gathered, visibility, list sign-ups and sales trend. You get a short postlaunch report with recommendations for what to do next.
