If you’re an indie writer/publisher, you already know how hard it is to track sales of your work through online distributors like Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Smashwords, and the rest. Each distributor provides a different kind of spreadsheet report, and none of them match up. If you want to see the big picture–how many books total you sold through all distributors in one month, how much money you made, how sales from one distributor compare to those from another–you have to be a real spreadsheet expert. Or else you can use Royalytics, an awesome new service that pulls it all together for you.
Join Royalytics for a mere $10 per month, upload the reports from the different distributors, and presto! You’ll be able to view a range of super-user friendly reports that show tons of useful data about sales of your e-books and paperbacks through Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Smashwords, Overdrive, and CreateSpace. You’ll be able to spot trends at a glance by using simple tables, charts, and graphs. You’ll be able to see it all, from total sales across all outlets to sales per distributor, geographic location, and individual retailer. Then, you can use this data to plan how to grow your publishing line and increase sales. It’s called e-book title optimization, and it will help you stay ahead of the crowd in the booming business of indie publishing.
I hope you’ll follow the link right here and explore the world of Royalytics for yourself. I think it will make a big difference in your indie publishing career, just as it has in mine. Seriously, you won’t believe how cool this service is and how much it will do for you. And you’ll love the 24/7 web-based availability and personalized, quick-response support. It’s a game-changer, plain and simple.
