Our team
PageRise is a small creative marketing studio working with authors to help their books reach more readers, thoughtfully and beautifully.
The studio
We bring book marketing, Goodreads Listopia strategy, cinematic trailers, author websites and retail optimisation together under one quietly focused studio.
Team / Leadership
Founder & Creative Director
Aurora founded PageRise on a simple conviction: a book should not disappear because its author could not afford a publicist. She sets the creative direction on every campaign the studio takes, from the first list we target to the last frame of a trailer, and she reads every title before we agree to represent it.
Leadership
The people who set the creative standard, guide campaign strategy and carry each production through to its final frame.
Production Lead
Abdulmuiz runs the studio floor. Scripts, voiceover, motion, score and the dozen platform cuts every trailer ships in, all of it moves through him. He is the reason a PageRise film arrives on the promised date without a single compromise on the finish.
Marketing Strategist
Karren builds the plan behind the visibility. She maps genre categories, keyword territory and Listopia placement into a single sequence, then tracks the ranking week by week so nothing is left to a guess or a feeling.
Strategy
The specialists who read the book, understand its market and shape the plan before a campaign begins.
Acquisitions Strategist
David decides which manuscripts the studio takes on and what a campaign should cost to do properly. He assesses a book on its own terms, its market, its comparable titles and its realistic ceiling, then tells an author the truth about all three before a single invoice is written.
Acquisitions Strategist
Lauren reads the manuscripts the studio is offered and works out whether a campaign can do right by them. She weighs a book against its market, its comparable titles and its realistic ceiling, and she is the one who tells an author, plainly and early, what PageRise can and cannot honestly deliver before any work begins.
Book Strategist & Manuscript Refinement Specialist
Estella works on the book before the campaign begins. She reads the manuscript as a reader would, then as an editor would, and tells an author what is helping the story land and what is quietly holding it back. Her notes are the reason a PageRise launch starts from a book that is already as good as it can be, so every other piece of the campaign has something worth selling.
Book Strategist
Ruth is the strategist who reads a book and works out what it is really for. She looks past the genre label to the reader a title is actually written for, then tells the studio where that book belongs, what it should be measured against and what a fair campaign looks like for it. Her judgment is the reason a PageRise plan starts from an honest picture of the book rather than a hopeful one.
Publishing Partnerships Director
Isabella has spent two decades on the publisher side of the table, and she brings that address book with her. She negotiates the co-op placements, festival slots and bookseller programmes that most independent authors never get offered, and she knows exactly which door is worth knocking on for a given title.
Visibility
The team carrying each title to the right readers across Goodreads, retail, audio and the wider book community.
Book Marketer
Natasha gets a book in front of the readers most likely to buy it. She reads a title, finds the audience it actually belongs to, and works the channels, the communities and the platforms that turn a quiet release into a visible one. Authors tend to describe her as the reason their book found the readers it was written for.
Book Publicist
Kevin helps authors find the story that makes their work worth talking about. He shapes clear, thoughtful angles for each title, then builds relationships with reviewers, interviewers and literary media so the right books reach the right conversations. His approach is personal, precise and grounded in publicity that earns attention rather than demands it.
Book Marketer & Audiobook Specialist
Sarah works the channels where a book actually meets its readers, and she brings the audiobook side with her. She reads a title, finds the audience it was written for, and runs the ads, the communities and the storefront pushes that turn a quiet release into a visible one, then carries that same title into audio so it reaches the listeners who never buy a print edition. Authors tend to describe her as the reason their book found readers they had not imagined reaching.
Book Marketing Strategist
Sophia turns a book's audience into a plan. She reads a title, works out which readers it was truly written for, and builds the channel, community and ad strategy that carries it to them. She treats marketing the way the studio treats every other part of a launch, as something crafted rather than guessed, and authors tend to describe her as the reason their book reached the readers it was always meant for.
Book Marketer
Anna finds the readers a book was written for and carries it to them. She reads a title, maps the channels and communities where its audience already gathers, and runs the outreach that turns a quiet release into a visible one. She treats every campaign as a conversation rather than a broadcast, which is why PageRise authors tend to reach readers they had not imagined reaching.
Book Visibility Specialist
Amelia makes sure a book is seen by the readers most likely to love it. She works the storefronts, the discovery channels and the platform surfaces that put a title in front of its audience, then keeps it visible long after launch week. She treats visibility as something engineered rather than hoped for, which is why PageRise titles tend to stay findable long after the initial push fades.
Listopia Visibility Expert
Charlotte helps books earn meaningful visibility on Goodreads by matching each title with the Listopia lists its readers genuinely use. She studies genre, positioning and reader behaviour, then builds focused placement campaigns that help the right audience discover a book naturally and keep finding it beyond launch week.
Amazon & Retail Optimisation Lead
Arvid lives inside the storefront. Keywords, categories, A+ content, pricing tests and the ad spend behind them all sit with him, and he treats a book page the way a bookseller treats a window display, tuned until the right reader stops. He is why PageRise titles keep ranking long after launch week is over.
Reader Growth & Campaign Analyst
Emma watches the numbers so an author does not have to. She tracks ranking movement, ad performance and review velocity across every live campaign, then tells the team exactly where the next push should land. Her reporting is the reason a PageRise launch can be adjusted mid-flight instead of judged after the fact.
Creative
The people shaping how authors sound, appear and connect wherever readers encounter their work.
Author Brand & Content Strategist
Johanna shapes how an author sounds everywhere readers meet them, from the jacket copy and the website voice to the posts that carry a book through launch month. She comes from editorial publishing, which is why her copy reads like a book rather than an advertisement, and why authors so often tell us it finally sounds like them.
Partnerships & Media Relations Lead
Riley opens the doors a book needs on the way out. Bookstagram and BookTok partnerships, podcast bookings, newsletter swaps and press desks all sit with her, and she works them the slow way, by building a real relationship long before there is anything to pitch. It is why PageRise authors get answered when most releases get ignored.
Social & Community Lead
Martin builds the audience that carries a book past launch week. She runs the studio's social craft end to end, from the hook on a BookTok cut to the rhythm of an author's posting calendar, and she treats a comment section as somewhere real readers live rather than a metric to farm.
Book Specialist & Publicist
Charlotte places books in front of the people who write about them. She reads a title, finds the angle a features editor will actually care about, and works the review desks, podcasts and local press until a book stops being a release and starts being a story. Authors tend to describe her as the reason their name appeared somewhere they never expected.
Operations
The team keeping every author informed and every campaign moving from onboarding through delivery.
Client Relations Manager
Cindy is the first person an author speaks to and the last one to sign a campaign off. She handles onboarding, keeps every timeline honest and makes sure nobody has to chase us for an answer, so the studio can stay heads-down on the work itself.
Author Success Manager
Justina is the person an author hears from most. She learns a book properly before a campaign starts, translates what the studio is doing into plain language, and makes sure nobody is ever left wondering where their launch stands. When something slips, she says so first.
Pre Order Campaign Manager
Miarah owns the weeks before publication, the hardest and most decisive stretch of any launch. She sequences pre order pushes, reader outreach and launch-week momentum so a book arrives already carrying an audience.
Pre Order Outreach Specialist
Alinta speaks to readers. She works the reviewer lists, the shelving accounts and the genre communities that turn a quiet release into a visible one, and she does it one genuine conversation at a time.
Launch Operations Manager
Olivier keeps every live campaign moving. She holds the production calendar, the review deadlines and the hundred small dependencies between a manuscript and a launch date, and she chases them so an author never has to. When a PageRise launch lands on the day it was promised, that is usually her doing.
