Proficient in KDP, Wide Distribution, Book Formatting & Promo Engines
Our specialized Ebook Author Virtual Assistants work natively inside your publishing dashboards, interior typesetting software, ARC delivery hubs, and newsletter automation suites from day one.
What Your Ebook Author Virtual Assistant Executes Daily
Authors should be writing, outlining, and worldbuilding—not spending 20 hours a week fighting ePub upload errors, chasing missing ARC reviews, adjusting KDP keyword fields, and configuring newsletter automations.
Interior Book Formatting (Vellum & Atticus)
Typesets manuscripts into flawless, industry-standard digital ePub and print-ready PDF files. Formats custom chapter headers, ornamental breaks, drop caps, copyright pages, clickable tables of contents, and also-by back matter with live Amazon series links.
KDP Keyword Research & Category Optimization
Conducts competitive research in Publisher Rocket and Helium 10. Identifies high-volume, low-competition 7 backend keyword strings, analyzes Amazon search suggestions, and submits requests via Author Central to place titles into top-ranking sub-genres.
ARC Review Team Management & Follow-Ups
Recruits, vets, and manages Advance Review Copy (ARC) teams using BookSirens, NetGalley, and BookFunnel. Distributes watermarked digital review copies, tracks review completion on Amazon and Goodreads, and eliminates delinquent non-reviewers.
Multi-Platform Publishing (KDP, IngramSpark & D2D)
Coordinates publishing uploads across Amazon KDP, KDP Select, IngramSpark (for indie bookstores and libraries), Draft2Digital, Apple Books, and Kobo Writing Life. Ensures ISBN registrations, pricing tiers, and territory rights are uniformly calibrated.
Newsletter Swaps & Reader Magnet Funnels
Builds and maintains reader magnet delivery pages in BookFunnel. Arranges weekly newsletter cross-promotions with comparable genre authors on StoryOrigin, segments subscriber lists in MailerLite or ConvertKit, and schedules automated onboarding email drip sequences.
Amazon A+ Content & 3D Mockup Graphics
Designs eye-catching Amazon A+ Content modules (comparison charts, editorial quotes, series reading orders) and realistic 3D book mockups for Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook ads using Canva and Photoshop. Books promo placements on Freebooksy, Fussy Librarian, and BookBub.
Why Traditional Freelance Platforms Fail Self-Publishing Authors
Self-publishing requires tight release timelines, exact retailer formatting specifications, and continuous newsletter management. Sagedoer delivers vetted publishing assistants backed by a dedicated Senior Project Manager.

"I write high-heat romance on a rapid-release schedule. Formatting books in Vellum, setting up BookFunnel ARC links, and scheduling newsletter swaps used to eat 15 hours every week. My Sagedoer VA took over the entire pipeline. I released 6 books this year instead of 3."
"Publisher Rocket keyword optimization and Amazon A+ content design made an immediate difference. Our urban fantasy series saw a 42% lift in organic page reads on Kindle Unlimited within 60 days of our VA refreshing our 7 backend keyword boxes."

"The free dedicated senior project manager is the real secret weapon. We never had to explain how KDP Select exclusivity rules work, or how to format a paperback spine width for IngramSpark. Sagedoer handles the quality control effortlessly."
