Retail Access

Help Your Book Reach Real Stores

Retail access can be a strong goal, but it’s rarely instant, and it isn’t the same for every book. The smartest approach is to build readiness, understand the pathways, and take steps that match your genre, pricing, and demand potential. We help you approach retail realistically, without hype, so you’re investing effort in the right direction.

Bookstore Pitching

Most authors pitch bookstores without a plan, then get discouraged. We help you approach pitching with clarity so your book and your request are easy to understand.

We support pitching strategy through:

  • Guidance on how to position your book for store consideration
  • What to include (and what to avoid) when communicating with stores
  • Practical direction for outreach that feels professional, not pushy
  • A strategy aligned with your category and audience

Wholesale Access

Wholesale is often part of the retail conversation. We help you understand how wholesale pathways work and what they mean for store readiness.

We guide you through:

  • What wholesale access typically supports (and what it doesn’t)
  • How pricing and setup can impact retailer feasibility
  • Steps to improve readiness for retail pathways
  • Clarity on what’s controllable vs. what retailers decide

Regional Retail Strategy

Going “nationwide” isn’t always the best first step. For many authors, a regional approach is more realistic and more effective.

We help you build a regional strategy by:

  • Choosing regions and store types that match your audience
  • Creating manageable outreach goals and clear next steps
  • Improving readiness before scaling wider
  • Building momentum through focused, repeatable actions

We manage the details that affect availability: distribution setup, listing consistency, and channel strategy. Whether you’re launching or expanding, we help you stay organized, avoid common mistakes, and move forward with clarity.
