“Adverley is a great partner for indies who need help with advertising so that they can focus on writing. They are sensitive to market changes as well as the needs of the independent author business, and offer admirable flexibility as well as years of experience in the industry.”
— A.L. Knorr, Born of Water: An Elemental Origins Novel
“The reason I wholly recommend Adverley's services isn't just because they are very reasonably priced--which they are. It isn't just that his team do a better job creating, monitoring, and adjusting my ads than I ever could--which they do. It isn't even that they keep me updated on the performance of all my ads and thoroughly answer any questions I have. It's because, thanks to them and their efforts, I have the time to do what's most important--write the next book.”
— Jacob Peppers, The Wandering Sword: Book One of The Last Eternal
“Gera and Michael are a critical part of our team.
They focus on the advertising so that we can focus on the writing and production. And when we have a question or need assistance, oftentimes on other matters regarding indie publishing, such as book covers, pricing, keywords, etc., they're always there to help. We couldn't succeed without them.”
— Peter Wacht, The Protector: The Tales of Caledonia
"Trusting my ad management to Adverley was the best decision I've made in my marketing efforts this past year.
They are especially responsive to specific requests which other companies might consider outside their norm, and you can't beat the reasonable pricing for what one gets in return. I cannot recommend them highly enough."
— Paula Kay, Buying Time: Legacy Series
“As for you all going forward with Gerardo (Adverley):
What I can say is that he was employee #3 back in 2018, so realistically, and I don't think I'm exaggerating here, there probably isn't anyone in the business with as much experience as he has working Amazon ads.
The fact that we have long term clients (and a few, I believe, who were clients, then moved on, then came back) is a strong testimony that he knows his stuff.”
— Michael Beverly: Former Adverley partner.
"I've tried handing over ad management to companies in the past and always felt underwhelmed. When you're spending money every day on ads, you want to feel like the people managing them take their performance as seriously as you would yourself. I've felt like Adverley has really respected my money and gradually tweaked the ads to a point where they're running more efficiently than I could've pulled off on my own, which is all I can really ask. I highly recommend them!"
— Penelope Bloom, USA Today, Wall Street Journal, and Amazon Charts Bestselling author.
