Brand and audience building

Elite brand and logo designs, content strategies and brand outreach through various initiatives such as speaker development, social media tools, and endorsement/testimonial campaigns, to help our authors better engage their audiences, deepen relationships and create value.

Genre marketing

Maximising awareness in communities of like-minded readers. UpThought’s marketing campaign includes genre-specific components such as targeted advertisements, book club promotions, award submissions, content syndication, and more.

Online and digital media marketing

UpThought’s marketing campaigns include an online component that is customised for authors using sales and online traffic trends for your book’s genre and subject matter. UpThought’s digital media marketing service uses podcasts and podcast interviews, influencer outreaches, article placements, videos, webinar series, book presentations, audiobooks, public launches, and press release distribution, to help to build an archive of third-party content that is discoverable, shareable, and serves as proof of your expertise.

Book discoverability and searchability strategy

With UpThought’s deep knowledge of your content, audience, and brand message, we develop a custom outreach strategy rooted in an ecosystem of content, search engine optimisation, discoverability, influencer relationships, and targeted placements on podcasts and/or publications catering to your audience demographic. This turnkey approach results in discoverable and shareable content that can be used to further establish your expertise, grow your platform, and monetize your message.

Commemorative book programs – Celebrating your brand Legacy

Documenting your company’s or organisation’s legacy in a striking, full-color book is a distinctive way to honour its unique story. We can produce a high-quality coffee table book that can serve as an asset to your business or be a great gift for friends and family, at anniversaries or other special times. Our writers, editors, graphic designers, and branding team are poised to help you develop, produce, and promote exceptional books to engage your readers and give them the opportunity to experience your company or organisation’s story through vivid imagery and layout. You want your audience’s attention? You will get it.
