This week we talk to Tara Cremin, Author Experience Manager from the self publishing platform Kobo Writing Life. As always it's great to chat to someone from the platform for the real insider information and Tara didn't disappoint!
For those of you who've never loaded a book to the platform, Tara talked us through the process and why you should load direct instead of through one of the other aggregators. She also gave us the down-low on boxed sets, pricing, and promotions through Kobo, and how to make sure you get the best results. Then she talked about some of the exciting new opportunities, including their brand new audiobook service, which is super exciting!
What we really like about Kobo is that they're innovators and experimenters, just like us. We're all ready to take up jobs in the New Zealand office of Kobo when it opens *wink, wink*, just from chatting to Tara...
"We're just a bunch of book-nerds," was our favourite quote from the interview, and sums up Kobo quite nicely, we think. :)
