You Wrote a Powerful Story. Let's Put It in Front of the Readers Waiting to Fall in Love With It.

No — never. Amber Joyce Media was built intentionally as an email-first business. Every question, update, strategy, and decision happens through Gmail. You'll receive written proposals, written deliverables, and written reports that you can read at your own pace and keep permanently. Many authors find they understand their marketing better this way, because everything is explained in full sentences they can reread anytime — not rushed through in a half-hour conversation they'll forget.

Everything arrives in your Gmail inbox as clean, organized written documents: strategy plans, blurb rewrites, keyword rosters, ad campaign summaries, performance reports, and step-by-step checklists. Documents are easy to read on any device, simple to search months later, and permanently yours to archive. Your entire marketing history becomes a library — not a blur.

The ideal window is 8 to 12 weeks before launch — enough time for market research, blurb optimization, ARC distribution, pre-order momentum, and ad preparation. But if your book launches sooner, or is already live and underperforming, that's exactly what the backlist and advertising packages are for. It is almost never too late to improve a book's trajectory.

Fiction specialties include Romance (contemporary, rom-com, paranormal, dark, romantasy), Fantasy & Sci-Fi, Thrillers & Mystery, and YA. Non-fiction specialties include Memoir, Personal Development, and Business. If you're unsure whether your book is a fit, submit the inquiry form with your genre and a short description — you'll get an honest, thoughtful answer by email.

Yes. Self-published authors typically use the full suite: metadata optimization, advertising management, ARC coordination, and reader funnels. Traditionally published authors often engage me for the things publishers rarely do well — personal platform growth, newsletter funnels, genre-specific ad campaigns, and the long-tail marketing that keeps a book selling after the publisher's push ends.

For ongoing ad management, a starting budget of $300–$500 per month (paid directly to Amazon or Meta — never through me) allows proper testing and meaningful data. Ad budgets below that can still work for focused pushes, and we'll discuss the right number honestly in your written proposal. One principle never changes: your money goes to the ad platforms, your accounts stay in your name, and every dollar is accounted for in writing.

Depending on your package: your book's genre and tropes, your current blurb, high-resolution cover files, your retail links, and your release timeline. If we're running ads or building funnels, you'll receive simple, written step-by-step instructions for granting access to your KDP, Meta, or email platform accounts — all handled securely by email, with your ownership never in question.

Absolutely. Manuscripts, sales figures, ad data, and all project details are treated as strictly confidential and are never shared with anyone. Features like the client spotlight above only appear with the author's explicit, written permission — and your information would never be published without yours.

Fill out the inquiry form below. Within 1–2 business days, a detailed written proposal will arrive in your Gmail inbox — recommended package, timeline, deliverables, and clear next steps. No pressure, no obligations, and nothing to schedule. Just read it when it arrives, and reply if it feels right.
