## Prompt

```text
Help me plan the launch and ongoing marketing for my ebook.

**Book:** [title, genre or topic, length, one-paragraph summary]
**Ideal reader:** [WHO, and what problem or craving the book serves]
**Where it's sold:** [e.g. "Amazon KDP only", "wide: Apple, Kobo, Google Play", "my own website"]
**Price and formats:** [PRICE; ebook, print, audio]
**What I already have:** [email list size, social following, website, reviews, other books]
**Launch date and weekly hours I can give this:** [DETAILS]
**Budget for ads and promos:** [AMOUNT]

Give me:
1. Store page checklist: subtitle, description hook, categories and keywords to research, cover check, author bio, look-inside sample.
2. A 6-week plan (4 before launch, 2 after) as a table: Week | Tasks | Channel | Goal.
3. Review building: advance reader copies, how to recruit honest reviewers, and what store rules prohibit (no paid or incentivized reviews, no reviews from close family where the store bans it).
4. The 3 best channels for my genre and audience, with 3 content ideas each and one sample post or ad per channel.
5. Price promotions: when to discount, free days if eligible, and deal sites to research [CONFIRM CURRENT TERMS].
6. Ongoing marketing after launch: email list growth with a reader magnet, series or backlist links, and a monthly routine.
7. The numbers to track and what to change if sales stall.

Keep it realistic for my hours and budget, and don't promise sales figures.
