Goodness me, it’s hard to believe that March is here now it’s time for another Small Business Deals: March 2025 Edition post.
How is it going so far with your writing and publishing journey?
Were you making some progress on any of your book projects?
As for me, I’m sad to say that I’m not making that much progress with editing the third book of my Trigger Locked series.
I never expect to rewrite so many scenes to improve the story flow.
Here I am, thinking I only need to use ProWritingAid to add sensory details and be done with it.
The good news is the whole process isn’t so bad with the help of Gemini and ProWritingAid combined.
But it will still take some time for me to finish the editing process even with the help of these tools, though.
So, what’s my thought about an AI model like Gemini after experiencing it for myself?
Is it worth using it in your own writing and editing process?
I’ll leave that discussion for another day since I have a lot of things to say about using Gemini in general.
So for now, let’s have a look at what’s in store for you in this month’s Small Business Deals: March 2025 Edition post.
Know as much as you can about your target audience with Publisher Rocket
No matter how well-written and edited your book is, it won’t matter when your target readers don’t even know your book exists.
So, what should you do if you don’t want your book to be lost in the sea of books on Amazon?
Well, you need to know what keywords your readers are using when they’re searching similar books like yours.
Nail that right and you can bet that your target readers will flock to your book page in drove.
But here’s the thing about the Amazon keywords – having the right keywords doesn’t necessarily guarantee your book’s discoverability.
Apart from the keywords, you also need to consider which category you add your book to.
If the categories you pick are a total dud, your book will still not generate any sales at all even with the right keywords.
The good news is finding the best and right keywords and category for your book is no longer a mystery thanks to Publisher Rocket.
And the best part of all? You can do all that in minutes within Publisher Rocket itself.
Come across books similar to yours that are doing well and wondering what keywords they use to rank on Amazon?
Well, you can do that using the Reverse ASIN Lookup feature on Publisher Rocket.
Think Publisher Rocket is what you need? You can get it right here:
Use it for your book research as well
Guess what?
Publisher Rocket isn’t just for you to find the right keywords and category to improve your book’s discoverability on Amazon.
You can even use it to conduct book research too.
Wondering if the sorts of books you want to write have some legs on Amazon?
Well, you can do that using the Competition Analyzer and Category Search feature on Publisher Rocket.
Not only it can tell you about the book’s Amazon Best-Seller Ranking. But it can also let you know how much sales these books generate per day and month.
If you want to understand how your target niche is doing on Amazon, then use the Category Search feature instead.
It will let you know if your chosen category has an increase or a decline in sales, the average price of the book in that category, and how many of them are traditionally published.
You certainly don’t want to be in a niche that is trending downward in sales and struggling to compete with large publishing companies, do you?
Think Publisher Rocket will be a useful tool to have for your book research? You can get the software right here:
Leave a lasting impression on your target readers with a premium WordPress theme, Divi
Let’s be honest here, we all know people judge the book by its cover.
But did you know that people do the same thing for the website as well?
Believe me, it can be hard to convince your target readers that you’re the real deal when your website looks shabby.
The good news is having a professional-looking website doesn’t need to cost you an arm and leg.
And it’s even more so when you don’t have to know a single code just to get the right look for your author website.
The only thing you need to do is to enter the prompt and your homepage, book page, author bio, and anything else you need will be ready in minutes.
Think that’s impossible, you say?
Well, it’s certainly not when you use the Divi theme.
With the Divi theme, you can create any look you want in minutes based on your prompt using the Divi AI.
Want to see the theme for yourself? You can have a look at it right here just to see if it’s the right fit for you:

In case you’re wondering, the Divi theme is what I use on this website and also on my fiction author website, Sekina Mayu.
