Omar Luqmaan-Harris – Marketer

Author ally and book publishing expert. I post tips to help good #writers get found, get feedback, get fans, and even get famous!

Overview

Passionate about helping indie authors get their work discovered by readers and build a liveable income out of writing. Consider me part business coach part platform builder. In order to do what I do best I need to know my clients well so that I can help them best position themselves and their work for public consumption. Hire me if you have no idea what Amazon categories are or why they matter, how to optimize a goodreads profile, how to leverage Amazon's A+ content feature to make your book page stand out to customers, when, where, and how you should think about advertising, where and how to generate book reviews, how to turn your ebook into a sales funnel for other higher value services, how to price your book versus the competition, and about 50 other considerations you shouldn't have to worry about. Leave that to me!


Currently accepting new clients but I only work with 5 clients at a time.

Work experience

Self-employed

Jan, 2014 — Present

Books that I have created my unique and innovative book discovery process on have sold nearly 100,000 copies in the past 10 years.

The Pantheon Collective

Apr, 2010 — Present

I am the marketing and operations arm for The Pantheon Collective (TPC Books) an Independent Publishing Venture that has published 6 titles since 2010 and sold over 80,000 copies (90% digitally). I created authordiscovery dot com in 2014 as a living resource to help (good) authors get found, get feedback, get fans, and even get famous! I have also built custom marketing plans for three other books which have sold thousands of copies.

Projects

Book Discovery Plan

This is the base of my marketing plans. Once I understand your project, I will work with you you to create a comprehensive customized discovery plan that will ensure your book is found by the right readers, that you get reviews for social proofing, and begin to build a fanbase you can cultivate over a long and hopefully successful publishing career.
