Build Buzz in 7 Days: Fall Fiction Teasers That Drive Preorders

Fall is publishing’s biggest season—and smart authors know that early buzz can make or break a book launch.

Whether you're launching your debut or your tenth book, a well-timed content campaign can create momentum, attract readers, and boost preorders. That’s why we’ve created a 7-day book teaser plan to help fiction authors like you connect with your audience across TikTok, Instagram, your newsletter, or wherever you promote your work.

This is your go-to "Teaser Week" strategy—easy to use, easy to customize, and designed to build excitement before the big launch day.

🍁 Your 7-Day Fiction Teaser Plan

📅 Day 1 — Cover Reveal or Mood Board

“I’ve been waiting to share this…”
📌 Post your cover or a mood board that reflects the look and feel of your story.

📅 Day 2 — Character Introduction

“Meet the main character who stole my heart…”
📌 Use a fan cast, mood board, or quote card to introduce your protagonist.

📅 Day 3 — First Line Challenge

“Here’s how it all begins…”
📌 Share your opening line as a graphic, reel, or voiceover. Ask readers: “Would you keep reading?”

📅 Day 4 — Tropes or Themes

“If you love [trope], this book’s for you.”
📌 Use popular tropes to connect with readers: enemies to lovers, found family, slow burn, etc.

📅 Day 5 — The Story Behind the Book

“I almost didn’t write this book. Here’s why…”
📌 Share your inspiration, fears, or a moment that sparked the story.

📅 Day 6 — Reader Poll or Interaction

“Help me choose: Which blurb is better?”
📌 Let your audience vote on blurbs, titles, or bonus content. Make it fun and shareable.

📅 Day 7 — Preorder or Waitlist Call-to-Action

“Fall’s coming fast—want early access?”
