For debut & first-time authors

Your first launch, with a real campaign behind it.

You don't have a mailing list, a marketing budget, or a clue what an "ad set" is — and you shouldn't need one. Narrativ builds the whole campaign around the book you just spent years writing.

A real campaign from day one

Built from your book, not a template.

Tell Narrativ your title, genre, and comparable authors — it studies your book the way an agency would, then drafts ad creatives and copy around it, ready for your approval.

Questions

Common questions

I don't have a mailing list yet — can I still use this?

Yes — audience tools build your list from scratch starting with your very first signup form.

I don't really know who my readers are — does that matter?

Not at the start. Competitive intelligence on comparable authors figures out likely audiences for you.

Will this work if I haven't published yet?

Yes — set everything up ahead of your launch date so the campaign is ready the moment your book is live.

Do I need design or marketing experience?

No. Narrativ writes the copy and builds the creative; you just review and approve.

How long before I see an actual campaign?

Minutes after you finish the initial book setup.

Your book deserves a real launch.

Start on the Starter plan — built for exactly one book, doing exactly this.
