Many authors see a burst of downloads on launch day, then tumble into silence. This episode gives a practical recovery plan you can implement in a single week to convert that stalled momentum into an evergreen sales engine. I walk through five numbered fixes—page conversion, targeted paid micro-buys, an audiobook snippet test, a low-cost promotional cadence, and a one-email funnel repair—explaining what to change, why it works, and the precise metrics to track.

The steps are feasible, measurable, and safe for authors using AI tools responsibly.
