Description

Director of Business Development at BookBub   Interview starts at 5:64 and ends at 16:18   BookBub definitely got off the ground with self-published authors. They’re often the first people in the industry to experiment with a new marketing channel, and they were much more comfortable discounting their books four years ago than a lot of traditional publishers were. Over the course of the past four years we’ve started working with all the major publishers, and we’ve gotten to the point where it’s fifty-fifty. We’ve actually maintained that breakdown for a while now, and we’re very comfortable with it.   News “Amazon’s Third Bookstore Will Be in Portland” by Leena Rao at Fortune - June 15, 2016   Interviews at BookExpo America   Katie Donelan, Director of Business Development at BookBub (5:64 to 16:18)      “Introducing BookBub New Release Alerts” at BookBub blog - January 4, 2016      BookGorilla   David Hemphill, publisher of Coralstone Press (16:54 to 24:26)      The Good Dog by Todd Kessler, illustrated by Jennifer Gray Olsen      Blue’s Clues on Nikolodeon (Amazon Prime Instant Video)   Christina York, co-founder and CEO of Spellbound (24:46 to 29:26)      “Spellbound uses augmented reality to turn children’s books into digital pop-up books” by Chris Meadows at TeleRead - May 12, 2016   Scott Dikkers, founder of The Onion (29:27 to 39:53)      Trump’s America: The Complete Loser’s Guide by Scott Dikkers - available in Kindle, paperback, and audio formats      The Comedy Insider Podcast, a serious conversation about comedy - hosted by Scott Dikkers (See Episode 13 for the Andy Borowitz interview)      Micro Publishing Media   Tech Tip “Kindle firmware v5.8.1: It’s all about dots and sharing” by Chris Meadows at TeleRead - June 16, 2016   Content Buzz Books 2016 (free) “Five Curious Ways to Find New Books to Read” by Mihir Patkar at MakeUseOf - June 14, 2016   Next Week’s Guest Jane Friedman, chairman of Open Road Media   Music for my podcast is from an original Thelonius Monk composition named "Well, You Needn't."
