Book Marketing Specialist Needed — Children’s Story (Long-Term Project) - Contract to Hire

Upwork

I’m looking for a marketing specialist to help promote a heartwarming children's storybook about the adventures of a little dog.

The book already exists and is available in **three languages**, which opens opportunities to reach an international audience.

The story has a **warm, comforting tone** — the kind of children's book that feels like a hug. The goal is to bring this story to families, parents, and readers who appreciate gentle and meaningful stories for children.

This is intended to be a **long-term collaboration**, not a one-time task.

  • *What I need help with:**
  • Building a clear marketing strategy for the book
  • Identifying the right audiences and platforms
  • Launch and promotion planning
  • Organic and paid promotion ideas
  • Influencer / community outreach
  • Increasing visibility and discoverability of the book
  • *Ideal candidate:**
  • Experience marketing **children’s books, illustrated books, or family content**
  • Understanding of **book marketing platforms and ecosystems** (Amazon, social media, reader communities, etc.)
  • Ability to think strategically and test different growth approaches
  • *Compensation:**

Please include **your fixed price for your work** when applying.

If the promotion performs well and leads to strong sales growth, **additional performance-based bonuses tied to revenue will be available.**

  • *When applying, please include:**
  • Examples of books or creative projects you have helped promote
  • What strategies worked best and why
  • Your initial thoughts on how you would approach marketing for this type of book
