The company delivered on its promise! I received a large e-mail list to begin building invaluable reader contacts to assist with my promotional efforts.

Shubhi was very helpful and courteous. Shubhi was very helpful in navigating my Mailchimp page. She is kind and very professional. Because of her, I have regained my faith in Cravebooks. THANK YOU, SHUBHI,

Pivotal book marketing experience I can not express to you how pivotal this company is to the success of independent authors. It provides several effective methods to gain exposure through advertising, plus a huge one: how to establish and grow your own email lists. I have 2500 emails now and growing!! It's our job as authors to find the correct target market and CraveBooks is there to help us gain exposure to their large and growing audience of true book lovers.

This is a great website for authors This is a great website for authors, and the results are more than promised. The site is easy to use, and the response to any questions is very fast. I recommend all authors use this.When I participated in a building giveaway, the results were four times the promised figures.

Newsletter Growth: High volume, low click rate I used CraveBooks for newsletter growth for my romance author brand. Pros: - It was very simple to set up - It was not very expensive - There was a high volume of signups - ~20 of the new subscribers went on to join my ARC reader group Cons: - The click-rate for these new signups is .7% (compared to Written Word Media's newsletter growth program which has a click-rate of 6%) - I got reported as spam a *lot* in the first few weeks by the new signups, this caused significant issues with a launch campaign - High volume of unsubscribes in the first two weeks (1/4th of the initial group) Cost to value, I'd still say this was a net win. The timing of everything with my new release and getting reported as spam was not CraveMedia's fault, therefore I won't let it affect my star rating.
