Marketecs Engine

Marketecs Engine is an all-in-one marketing and automation software platform that helps authors and publishing professionals stop duct-taping tools together and start running their business from one place.
Built for those who are juggling books, services, and a growing audience, Marketecs Engine brings your email marketing, funnels, landing pages, CRM, appointments, text reminders, follow-up, communities, and even an LMS into a single, easy-to-manage hub.
For authors, coaches, and small publishers, that means you can:
• Build and grow an email list of engaged readers
• Set up launch and evergreen funnels for your books and services
• Nurture leads with automated email and text campaigns
• Track conversations, sales, and opportunities in one simple dashboard
We combine templates with strategy and support so you are not staring at a blank screen trying to “figure out the tech.” You get structure, systems, and automation that still feel personal to your needs, readers, and clients.
Best timing: Marketecs Engine is ideal once you are planning a book launch or relaunch, or you have at least one book and are ready to treat your author platform and services like a real business, not a side project.

Special Offer:

We’re inviting WIP attendees into a live 3-Day Marketecs Engine Ignition Challenge designed to get your author or publishing business out of “tech limbo” and into a working, automated system.

During this live, implementation-focused challenge, we’ll help attendees:

Set up their system foundation

Explore and build core pieces like forms, email templates, and even workflows

Leave with a usable system instead of another half-finished tool

WIP-Only Offer:
Attendees who join Marketecs Engine through this challenge get their first month for just $97 and we waive the standard set-up fee. That’s a savings of $600 for Standard users and $700 for Advanced users.

Who this is best for:
Nonfiction authors, author-coaches, book coaches, and small publishers who already have (or are planning) a book and at least one paid offer (coaching, services, programs, etc.), and who are ready to centralize their marketing, email, and funnels in one place instead of juggling multiple tools.

Reader Views

Authors come to us at many points in the publishing process—some before release, some at launch, and many well after publication.

With nearly 20 years of experience and a trusted reputation in the indie publishing community, Reader Views continues to be a reliable partner for authors navigating their publishing journey.
