"We publish an online quarterly poetry review receiving 500+ submissions per reading period. Screening submissions in Submittable and formatting custom stanza indents in WordPress was consuming all my evenings. Our SageDoer assistant formats poems with absolute typographic reverence and coordinates writer contracts flawlessly."
Evelyn Hastings
Editor-in-Chief, Sylvan Review, Edinburgh
"Growing my poetry Substack to 18,000 subscribers required daily aesthetic micro-poetry on Pinterest and Instagram. Designing quote cards in Canva was draining my actual creative writing spirit. SageDoer's dedicated PM set up a batch design routine. Our Pinterest impressions tripled, driving over 4,000 monthly blog visits."
Mateo Lozano
Poet & Author, The Solitary Stanza, Austin
"Typesetting our annual prize-winning anthology for Amazon KDP and IngramSpark was always a formatting nightmare with line-break wraps. Our assistant formatted the entire 90-page collection, created clean TOC hyperlinks, and checked mobile Kindle proofing. Flawless print delivery!"
Claire Rosales
Managing Director, Nocturne Poetry Press, Portland
"Scraper sites were copying our original commissioned poetry and reposting without credit or links. Our SageDoer VA runs weekly reverse text sweeps, files DMCA notices within hours, and manages our Patreon bonus prompt drops. At $6/hour, it has been an absolute lifesaver for our blog."
