Representation
Give clients a credible professional home for books, media, events, speaking, and contact inquiries.
For literary agencies
Carry the author’s story beyond the pitch
Build the public home, launch presence, and press record behind every client—without stitching together a new toolset for each one.
A clear workspace for every client
Keep each author’s site, catalog, campaigns, press, and audience work separate inside one organization.
Campaigns that follow the calendar
Move from preorder to launch to evergreen messaging without rebuilding the author site at every milestone.
Access matched to the assignment
Give agents, publicists, and collaborators access to the authors and organization work they actually manage.
Across the client lifecycle
Useful before the deal, through launch, and after
AuthorPad gives agencies a durable client platform, not a campaign microsite that loses its purpose when release week ends.
Launch management
Coordinate campaign content, samples, bonuses, press releases, distribution, and launch-day calls to action.
Ongoing growth
Use site, book, campaign, store, and audience signals to decide what deserves the next round of attention.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need any technical skills to set up my site?
No. Choose a template, add your books and bio, and publish. AuthorPad handles hosting, domains, and updates.
Can I sell books directly through my AuthorPad site?
Yes. Connect Stripe to sell editions and merchandise from your site, or send readers to the retailer links you already use.
What happens to my existing mailing list?
You can bring in existing subscribers, capture new readers on your site, send broadcasts, and export your list when needed.
Can a publisher or agency manage multiple author sites?
Yes. Organization workspaces bring multiple author sites, billing, and team access together while keeping each author’s site separate.
Can I use my own domain?
Yes. You can connect a domain you already own, verify its DNS from your workspace, and serve the finished site securely.
