About
The number of books self-published has grown tremendously over the last decade. Today this number is 2500+ books per day. This growth has a problem: without the publishing house, it’s now up to the indie authors to seek distribution, contact libraries and bookstores, develop marketing campaigns, and plan logistics for their own book tours. To win, authors need to have not only great prose, but also great business acumen - which takes around 50% of their time (20-40 hours per week). Hemingly pulls data from authors’ distributors (Amazon, iBooks, Barnes & Noble, etc.) and give insights on the most effective ways to spend their marketing budget. We track the effectiveness of each campaign by overlaying actions with sales graphs, helping authors make quick and effective decisions. Our long term vision is to become the author’s virtual business partner, taking care of all their business frustrations so that authors can focus on what they love - writing.
