Book Marketing for Authors, Built Inside Your Own Workspace
It runs every week. You manage it in minutes.
Whether you're a self-published author with one title or a small press managing a growing catalog, Apricotter turns the books you've already written into a standing marketing operation — set up once, running every week after, without living inside your calendar.

An automated marketing system built from your own books
Everything starts with what you've already written. Your books are read closely — characters, scenes, voice, the works — and that becomes the raw material for a standing weekly operation, in your own words, never a generic template dressed up with your title on it.
Two content pillars, every single week
Review posts that turn what readers already say about your book into fresh, sharable content — and Cinematic Trailer posts that bring your story to the screen, characters and all. Both go out automatically, every week, across:
Want more range on the video side? That's what the Hollywood Theme Pack is for.
Weekly numbers that build a long-term sales campaign
Every week closes with a plain-language report on what actually worked — and it doesn't just sit in an inbox. It feeds the next week's plan directly, so a season of posting adds up to one long-term sales campaign for your catalog, not four dozen disconnected updates.
