Book Launch Post Ideas

Your book cover, in the wild.

Ideas and captions for the weeks around your book launch. Upload your cover and we put it on real photos of billboards, newspapers and tote bags, so launch week has more to post than the same flat cover image.

Make your first one free

One tap with Google. No card.

You'll post your cover twenty times. Make each one look different.

A book launch isn't one post. There's the cover reveal, the preorder push, launch day, the first reader photos and the long tail after. Most authors end up posting the same flat JPG of the cover every time, and people scroll past it by the third go.

Your cover on a New York billboard or a newspaper open on a cafe table gives each post its own feel. It reads like a moment, not an ad. It's a look, not a claim, so say it plainly in your caption and let people enjoy it.

You don't need a publisher's marketing team for this. You need your cover as a PNG or JPG and about a minute.

Posts for every stage of the launch

Cover reveal: your cover on a billboard above a New York street, with the title in the caption and nothing else
Preorder reminder: the cover on a newspaper held up on the street, framed as the book you'll be reading next
Launch day: the cover on a subway billboard, with where to buy it in the first line of the caption
A quote from the book set as a poster on a city wall, so readers get a taste before they buy
Your cover on a canvas tote, as a giveaway idea for your launch event or newsletter
Six months on: the same billboard look to thank readers and push the paperback

Captions to start with

Three years of early mornings. It's finally a real thing.

If this were a billboard, it would say: out now, wherever you buy books.

Preorders are open. This is your sign.

Photos that suit you

On a billboard: the big look for a cover reveal or launch day.
On a newspaper: suits a book. Try it open on a cafe table for a quiet reading feel.
On a street poster: put a pull quote or event date on a wall.
On a tote bag: see your cover on a tote before you order any for readers.
