Door 2 · Launch service

From manuscript to live listing
in 14 days.

One bundle for first-time authors who want it done properly. Formatting, cover review, full Amazon listing setup, ad-readiness audit, AI Discovery Score, and 90 days of post-launch check-ins. We do the work; you keep your time.

What's included

Manuscript formatting

Print PDF + Kindle EPUB, KDP-spec, all the same craft as Door 1's standalone formatting service.

Cover review & redesign if needed

We assess your cover at 90×135 px (mobile thumbnail) and full size. If it doesn't survive at thumbnail, we redesign or commission a new one — the most common single failure point.

Amazon listing setup

Title field optimisation (mobile truncation matters), subtitle that telegraphs genre, A+ Content design, category research, keyword starters, A+ image creation.

Ad-readiness audit

The full Ad Conversion Readiness Score on your finished listing. Verdict on whether to spend on ads day-one or fix something first. Money-math projection of expected return.

AI Discovery Score

What ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini and Amazon Rufus (simulated) know about your book. Baseline measurement and a 90-day retest so you can see the discovery curve.

90 days post-launch check-ins

Monthly score refresh, listing-health review, ad-spend recommendations as data comes in. We're not gone after delivery — that's when the real work starts.

Pricing

£499launch starter · one book · 14 days
Or £799 for full launch support — includes everything plus extended ad-spend management for the first 90 days, monthly listing rewrite as data lands, and a Book 2 prep call.
