A book that had already failed once.
The Quiet Ledger had been on sale for two years and sold roughly 300 copies. The writing was fine. Everything around it was not.
The book was listed in a category with 40,000 competing titles and none of its actual readers. The description opened with a paragraph about the author rather than the reader's problem. The cover, at thumbnail size, was unreadable. The paperback was priced above its nearest twelve competitors.
We changed four things: category and keywords, description copy, cover, and price. No new writing, no new edition. Over the following eleven months the title cleared 9,000 copies and has stayed in the top 20 of its category since.
- Re-categorised to a real audience
- Description rewritten for the reader
- Cover rebuilt for thumbnail legibility
- Price aligned to category comparables
