Hey, author friend. Quick question:When was the last time you watched a short video online—Instagram Reel, TikTok, YouTube Short—and didn’t scroll straight past it?

Exactly. Short videos are everywhere because they work. Now

Here’s the kicker: if you’re not using them to promote your book… you might be missing sales. Ouch.

But I’m a Writer, Not a Filmmaker!

Totally get it. You signed up for plot twists and poetic prose, not ring lights and editing apps. But here’s the good news—you don’t have to become the next Spielberg to make an impact.

Even a 15-second teaser—your book’s vibe, a juicy quote, or a moody soundtrack with your cover art—can spark curiosity and clicks. Readers want to feel your story before they buy it. And nothing delivers that like video.

Enter Stage Left: AI 🪄

Now, before you hide under your writing desk, hear me out.AI isn’t out to replace your creativity—it’s here to help it shine. At Book Pulse Hub, we’re all about using smart tools (yes, even robots) to make your life easier. Want a voiceover for your blurb? Dramatic background music? A snazzy animation of your book cover? Let the tech do the heavy lifting.

You write the words. We help make them dance.

The Bottom Line

Short-form video isn’t a scary new trend. It’s today’s book trailer, elevator pitch, and mood board—all rolled into one. Skipping it means letting other authors outshine you in the scroll wars.

So don’t shy away. Embrace the reels, the Shorts, the TikToks. And if you need a hand? We’ve got you.

✨ Let your story be seen, not just shelved. ✨
