— About

Meet Michelle Bennett

Michelle is an Ebook Promotion Specialist with extensive knowledge in Goodreads marketing. She has spent years studying how readers discover books on the platform — and turns that insight into visibility for the authors she works with.

Her work focuses on strategic Listopia placement, reader discovery positioning, and helping books move from low visibility to sustained, organic exposure. From debut thrillers to established series, she's helped titles break out of crowded categories and land in front of the right readers.
