# Book Seed Marketing

## Core Lens

Seed marketing is temporary manual work that gets a useful book into the hands of enough target readers for word of mouth to begin. It does not replace recommendability; it activates it.

Use this skill after the book is at least mostly working for readers. If the promise, manuscript, or reader experience is still unproven, use `book-toc-lab`, `reader-experience-edit`, or `beta-reader-feedback` first.
