"Breakthrough Bestseller" Plan
How would you like to receive feedback & guidance on your book from
a team of publishing professionals, so that you know the answers to
the ultimate questions in a writer’s mind...
“Is my book any GOOD?
Will my book SELL?”
You may have thought about this book for months or even years. Before long, you’re so close to the idea and the words that you’re no longer sure whether this book is coming together like you’d hoped.
And the whole idea of getting the book published seems overwhelming—so many options and no clear path forward. And what if you get through this whole process and the book doesn’t even sell?
Surely there’s a way to get honest, professional feedback on your book before you publish and launch?
The answer is, “Yes!” Paper Raven Books is a leader in the modern publishing world, with expertise in book editing, publication, and launch.
And occasionally we open up spots in our “Breakthrough Bestseller” Plan, where our goal is simple: We want to help you know, once and for all, when you finally finish your book, is it good, and will it sell?
Here's how the "Breakthrough Bestseller" Plan works:
You send us what you’ve written so far, along with the topic or genre you’re writing in, and our team will do a deep dive into, not only your writing, but also the current trends in the market that you’re writing for, and we will provide you with a custom, strategic plan for prepping your book for publication so that you KNOW your book will be successful when you launch.
First, we go in-depth on your writing.
One of our senior book coaches will read what you’ve written, start to finish. Your book coach takes detailed notes, creates a summary review, and actually gets on a call with you to talk through the main areas of potential and improvement in your writing.
Your personalized review will include:
Specific suggestions for structuring or restructuring your book, how many chapters should there generally be, how long should chapters generally be, whether you need to add more detail or delete sections, or any other high-level, relevant changes to the pacing and flow of your book.
Feedback on whether your story is interesting enough that the reader wants to keep turning pages and is it cohesive so that the reader is following the threads, from beginning to end.
Evaluation of your chapters to make sure they read smoothly, that you haven’t repeated yourself, that any of the rambling, unconnected sections are identified, and how it can all come together in a final, well-structured, FINISHED book.
Insights into what it'll take for you to tighten and polish until the editing process is “done,” even if you still think of ways to make it better and constantly feel like it’s just not quite ready.
Discover a tried-and-true "order of operations" for which changes and edits should be done first in a way that gets you excited to continue to work and make the book better (instead of feeling overwhelmed by an unorganized pile of suggestions).
We’re committed to helping you write a great book because THIS book could become a perennial bestseller, your readers’ go-to book recommendation, and the platform for your long-term success as an author.
Then, we go in-depth on your marketing:
One of the underlying questions authors have when they’re wondering whether their book is “good enough” to publish is also, “Will my book actually sell?”
People have opinions a-plenty about what sells and what doesn’t.
We prefer data over opinions.
Amazon’s bookstore provides information around exactly what its customers are searching for, browsing the digital shelves for, and buying. More than 70% of books sold are through the Amazon platform, which means if we can gather the data on what’s selling on Amazon, we can see into the majority of the book marketplace.
When we provide your Book Market Analysis, we’ll provide estimates of the size of your book’s market—how many readers are searching for and actually buying a book like yours, right now.
We’ll provide the exact keywords, phrases, categories, and sub-categories that we recommend you consider including in your book’s “metadata,” which is the information that’s included in your book’s “back-end” to appropriately categorize your book in a bookstore, whether digital or brick-and-mortar.
We’ll provide the number of people who are searching for and buying books like yours, as well as how many competitors are already using certain keywords, so that you can find the profitable pockets in the marketplace, with maximum readers and minimum competition.
Why don’t most people do this, already?
Honestly, most people don’t even know that this kind of market research is possible.
Traditional and hybrid publishers relied on data from bookstores to provide a proxy for what kinds of books were selling. That data disappeared in 2020 and has not re-emerged in any meaningful way since then.
Some independent self-publishers have figured out how to “mine” Amazon data for those profitable pockets in the marketplace. That’s why your E.L. James and Suzanne Collins indie authors had such break-out careers, and you likely have your own favorite independent, self-published authors who you’ve found through Amazon.
We’re a team of millennial publishing professionals who want to bring quality book market analysis tools to every author.
And our exclusive book market analysis is exactly the insights into what’s selling online, right now, to give you and your book the absolutely best chance to become a debut, breakout, bestselling book.
Our marketing team will take a deep dive into the best way to get your book in front of tens of thousands of the right readers, from the start. We’ll analyze what readers are looking for now, generally, as well as what’s trending in your specific market of readers and what other comparable titles are earning in monthly sales.
This type of market analysis is engineered to help you know ahead of time how big your readership is, where to strategically categorize your book, and how quickly you can expect to re-coup publishing costs and actually make money as an author.
Your personalized marketing analysis will include:
Why debut authors have a much better chance of marketing by simply getting their books where readers are already looking for a book like yours—in online retailers, like Amazon, where most readers are buying their books, right now.
Our suggestion for the best market for your book that already has thousands of readers looking for a book like yours. Once you know your market-fit, you can even make sure your book is informed by what the market’s looking for, so that your book meets a true need for your readers. This is how perennial bestsellers are crafted.
How to find comparative book titles when most books you’ve come across are poorly written and not impressive. We help you find where authors are already making money in this topic and genre, so you can have the confidence that there’ll be existing demand for a book like yours for years to come.
Ways to convert viewers into buyers. When someone stumbles upon your book, how do you get them to move from curious to interested enough to buy? We’ll show you how to tap into the psychology of book buyers with your title, subtitle, and description, so that they know they want to buy your book immediately.
When you approach book marketing THIS way, you’re not just selling a book occasionally; you’re selling hundreds and thousands of copies of your book easily because you know how to tap into the market of eager readers looking for YOUR book.
You might be wondering, "What types of books
do you work with?"
We regularly work with nonfiction, memoir, and fiction books. We've published and launched books in Every genre and sub-genre has particularities, which is why we go deep into your book's market and expectations. Here's what some of our authors have seen after publishing their books:
#1s in their books' most relevant and competitive categories and 100s of reviews after the launch.
With a little time and continued marketing in those best categories, 1,400+ reviews and counting.
And that type of credibility lends itself to awards and guest appearances
that sets the book up for the virtuous cycle of long-term marketing goodness.
THIS is what happens when your book is set up for success from the beginning!

Q: What’s the difference between the “Breakthrough Bestseller” Plan and just having someone read my book and give me feedback?
If you give your writing to a friend and ask for feedback, a) you’ll be lucky if they read it in any sort of timely manner and b) their response will probably be vague and not especially helpful.If you hire an editor, they’re going to help you make your book better, for sure. Their big blindspot, though, is they’re not thinking about the first, fundamental question: what’s the MARKET for this book? “Is it good?” Yes. AND, “Will it sell?” Those are two different questions. When you work with our team of publishing professionals, we review BOTH your writing and the market for your book. We’re thinking about getting the right structure for your book, based on what your readers are looking for in a book like yours. We’re also thinking about the market potential for your book. We put on a wide-angle lens to make sure that, yes, you know exactly what needs to happen next in revising and prepping your book for quality publication, AND, you know exactly what the size of readership is for a book like yours, even before you release your book.Very few people in the book world are able to give you this depth and breadth of feedback.
Q: Does my book need to be completely DONE before I can take advantage of this?
Nope!If you have a written draft (something like 30,000 words), we will review all of your content, so that we can see the scope of the book and the trajectory of the storyline. Yes, it’s okay if your manuscript is still in “rough draft” form. We’re book coaches! We’re very used to working with messy ideas. :)And even if you don’t have a written draft, that’s okay, too! We’ll send you a Book Concept Brief to answer for us, and you can fill out the Book Concept Brief for one, two, or three book ideas. Our senior book coach will review, provide written feedback, and then follow up with an in-depth phone call to discuss, brainstorm, and offer clarifying suggestions.It’s like the litmus test to know the book will be successful before you even commit to writing it!
Q: What genres or topics are a best fit for this “Breakthrough Bestseller” Plan?
We do not offer our services for picture books, coffee table books, or cookbooks. For referrals to partners who we trust in these areas, please reach out to us with your query: hello@paperravenbooks.com
For all other types of nonfiction, fiction, or memoir, we very likely have a senior book coach who has years of experience in your type of book. And we’ll let you know whether we’re a good fit for your book or not. If we’re not, we’ll do our best to refer you to one of our trusted partners!
Q: Is there a Guarantee?
If you’re not thrilled with the insights and guidance we provide in your “Breakthrough Bestseller”Plan, we’ll gladly refund 100% of your money. We do ask that you have a phone call with our team, in order to be eligible for your refund, so that we can talk with you about what didn’t work for you.
Q: Does this include editing, design, publishing, and all the things?
Editing, design, and publishing the book is outside the scope of this “Breakthrough Bestseller” Plan. Some of the writers we work with will take their book to a traditional publisher or hybrid publisher or continue working with our Paper Raven Books team. That’s not a decision you have to make, right now, though, and there are no ongoing obligations. After your one-on-one strategy session with us, if you’d like to talk with us about working with our team, Paper Raven Books, we’ll set up a follow-up call to discuss those options. Plus your investment in the “Breakthrough Bestseller” plan would 100% count toward any package that you might do with us in the future.
