We Are Not Just a Marketing Agency. We Are Your Book's Greatest Champions.
Greenleaf Book Agency is a team of 24 publishing professionals — Amazon algorithm specialists, Goodreads strategists, PR veterans, BookTok experts, ghostwriters, editors, and launch campaign managers — united by one belief: every great book deserves to find every reader who needs it.
Publishing Professionals on Your Team
Authors We Have Launched to Success
Greenleaf Book Agency was not built in a boardroom.
It was built from a conversation with an author — a retired schoolteacher who had spent four years writing a memoir about raising her son through addiction and recovery. She had self-published it. She believed in it completely. And it had sold 23 copies in 8 months.
She was not the problem. Her book was not the problem.
The problem was that nobody had ever told her that writing the book is only half the work. That the other half — the visibility, the positioning, the marketing, the community, the reviews, the media — requires a completely different set of skills that most authors simply do not have.
We built Greenleaf Book Agency to be the team that every author like her deserves but rarely finds — the specialists who know exactly how to take a finished book and put it in front of every reader who needs it.
Today, our team of 24 has launched over 500 books across every genre and every market. We have helped debut authors hit Amazon bestseller lists. We have relaunched forgotten books that deserved a second chance. We have built author platforms from zero followers to ten thousand subscribers.
Every book that comes through Greenleaf Book Agency gets the same thing: a team of people who believe in it as much as its author does — and who know exactly what to do about it.
Greenleaf Book Agency is a fully independent, full-service book marketing and publishing agency — and every author we work with benefits from the combined expertise of a team that has been in the literary world for decades.

The Principles Every Great Book Campaign Is Built On
Every Book Has a Reader Who Needs It
There is no such thing as a book that cannot find an audience — only books that have not been positioned correctly for the readers who are waiting. Our job is to find those readers and put your book directly in front of them, on every platform they use.
Strategy Beats Budget Every Single Time
A $500 campaign with the right strategy will outperform a $5,000 campaign with the wrong one. We start with data — your genre, your comparable authors, your reader demographics, your platform strengths — and build a strategy that maximizes every dollar.
Your Success Is Our Reputation
We do not take on books we do not believe we can help. We do not promise results we cannot deliver. We tell you what your book needs — even when it is not what you want to hear — because honest diagnosis leads to real results.
The People Who Lead Every Campaign
Our leadership team brings decades of combined publishing, marketing, and literary expertise to every author we work with.

What It Actually Feels Like to Work With Greenleaf Book Agency
We Read Your Book First
Before we recommend a single service or write a single strategy document, our team reads your book. Not a summary. Not the blurb. The book. Because you cannot build a genuine marketing strategy for something you have not experienced. Every author who works with us gets a team that has actually read what they wrote.
We Tell You the Truth About What It Needs
Some books need a cover redesign before any marketing will work. Some books need metadata optimization before ads will convert. Some books are ready to launch tomorrow. We will tell you honestly which category yours is in — and what the fastest, most efficient path to results looks like for your specific situation.
We Execute Like Your Book Is Our Own
When we are running your campaign, your book is the most important book we are working on. Not because we say that — because it is how our team is structured. Campaign managers are assigned to single projects. Specialists are briefed on your author story. Every person who touches your campaign knows your book, your reader, and your goal.
We Report Everything, Hide Nothing
Weekly performance reports. Real numbers. What is working, what is not, what we are changing and why. You will never wonder what is happening with your campaign — because we tell you before you ask.
We Stay Until the Goal Is Reached
If your target is a bestseller badge and we have not hit it yet, we do not close the campaign and send you an invoice. We stay, adjust, and push harder. Our reputation is built on results — not on running the clock and moving on.
We Build Something That Lasts Beyond the Campaign
Every campaign leaves your book in a stronger position than when we found it — more reviews, stronger metadata, a larger author platform, more media coverage, and a bigger reader audience. The work we do does not expire when the campaign ends.
We Are Always Looking for People Who Love Books as Much as We Do
Greenleaf Book Agency is built on the belief that the best book marketing comes from people who are genuinely passionate about literature, authorship, and the reading experience. If you are a publishing professional, marketing specialist, editor, PR expert, or social media strategist who wants to spend every working day helping great books reach the readers who need them — we want to hear from you.
