Authors who hire Rick Lite of Stress Free Book Marketing will find that they have discovered a ‘superpower’ in the book industry.

After a failed attempt at launching my holiday book too late in 2019, I reconnected with Rick during the summer of 2020 and he immediately created a roadmap for success. He helped me launch my Instagram account and helped me begin to build a following. His team began to submit my book to many reviewers and continues to do so. He even suggested and then help me self-publish the paperback version of my book to make sure I covered the entire spectrum of potential readers. This was great advice and paid off in a big way during the month of November with hundreds of book sales.

Rick also set up and actively monitored my Amazon advertising campaigns. He was very sensitive to spending my money and focused on selling the most books for the least amount of money. He really understands the behaviors that Amazon tracks and how they reward books that get a lot of attention and sales.

Without listing out all of the other tasks Rick and his team performed what has impressed me the most was his patience in coaching me and answering my silly questions.  He has been a gift that I will use again.

Rick helped manage our publishing process from end-to-end--and on a crazy deadline. He handled everything from the layout and formatting to cover design and distribution. Rick guided us to ensure we could publish our book the right way, all without missing a beat.  A fantastic experience!- Zoë Randolph, Content Achitect, Upland Software & Co-Author of Mastering One Voice: A Fable and Feild Guide to Content Operations

"Rick and his team were amazing to work with. Being a new author they were exactly what I needed to make this a ‘pain-free’ and ‘stress free’ process.  His guidance, support, education and knowledge throughout were invaluable and had I not used them I would have been stuck spinning my wheels.  If you are needing publishing and marketing support for your book, look no further!- Carlos Hidalgo, Author, The UnAmerican Dream

Rick not only fulfills what he says he’ll do but, he goes above and beyond. His excellent expertise gets results.

Trying to pay attention to a veritable cloud of information about book marketing is exhausting and Rick helped me achieve my goals for my book.What is really impressive is that my genre is "Poetry", one of the most neglected of literary genres, a poor stepchild.

I hired Rick Lite to help me self-publish and market my children's book.  He was very knowledgeable and supportive every step of the way. I appreciated speaking to him at our set time every week to hear what he was doing for me and to give me plenty of time to answer my questions. Using his wealth of personal experience, he conveyed the information in a way that was clear and concise.  He spent a lot of time helping me with a variety of marketing tasks that I could never handle myself. Rick also helped me tweak my website. For the amount of time he spent on my book, I thought this was worth every dollar. I would highly recommend Rick for anyone considering self-publishing or marketing.

"Rick Lite is a great coach, a skilled facilitator, and a natural mentor.

"Rick was a great help in the pre-self-publishing through post publishing process. I think he would have been even more helpful if I had contacted him earlier and developed a social media presence months before publication. Nevertheless, he was a great help with my book description and bio and in mastering the complexities of IngramSpark and CreateSpace/Amazon. He offered a variety of marketing ideas from using Twitter and Goodreads to suggesting newspapers and magazines that might be interested in various themes in my book."
