NEW BOOK PROMO WITH A PRO I booked a one hour consultation to review and improve the Amazon listing of my new book. I came away not only with that but with an entire media pitch drafted—and she gifted me the overtime to complete it. I can assure you that April is the real deal!
By Melinda P.
April has been a valuable resource as I have navigated the self publishing process. She is knowledgeable, and generous about sharing practical guidance based on her experience in the industry. April has helped me better understand the many steps involved in preparing, publishing, and launching my books, while giving me the confidence to become more involved in the process myself. I especially appreciate that April takes the time to answer my questions, explain unfamiliar concepts, and help me think through important decisions. Highly recommend to authors looking for experienced guidance through the self-publishing process!

If I could give her more than 5 stars I would! April's help in self publishing my first book was invaluable. She understands the world of publishing and carefully navigated every step in the process with me, explaining the hows and whys of each step. She paid great attention to detail, and asked me lots of questions so as to best understand the purpose of my book and how to present it in the very best light.. She did all the heavy lifting for me, and communicated very clearly the parts I needed to do. I can't thank her enough for her assistance!

I have had the pleasure of working with April for the past three years and plan on continuing to learn and grow with her as she expands her knowledge in the ever-growing industry of self-publishing. She is patient, supportive, and always has solutions to any impasse I am experiencing. I am so happy to have found this Jewel! --Kathleen Blevins

Working with Self Publishing Made Simple gave me the guidance and confidence to bring my first book, Frances Flamingo: Prima Ballerina, into the world. The coaching and support made the entire process clear and manageable. I’m now publishing my fifth book, and I’m so grateful for the strong foundation April Cox provided
By Dottie L.
April Cox is a wealth of information when it comes to self-publishing. Her expertise, knowledge of the subject, and trustworthiness are gold! She continues to add new advice/information/techniques that keep authors updated on the latest trends in self-publishing. I value the six years I have known her in helping me self-publish 4 picture books.

April has been providing guidance for me for 6 years. She is generous with her time, knowledgable about the latest technology, and has a spectrum of resources to help you (if you want it!) with any stage of the game (editing, design, marketing, etc etc etc). Highly recommend.
