Case study

How we launched Orbit Decay

The challenge

First-in-series sci-fi books live or die on launch-week reviews. We needed a massive, real, engaged ARC team before page one ever shipped.

Our approach

  • Recruited 9,200 verified sci-fi readers via targeted ad funnels and genre Discord partnerships
  • Built a tiered ARC delivery system that prioritized top-reviewing readers first
  • Coordinated a synchronized review-day push across Goodreads, Amazon, and Storygraph
  • Locked in 3 sci-fi newsletter features for launch week
