Julie Broad recommends StoryOrigin for managing beta readers and building landing pages, and Publisher Rocket for keyword research and Amazon ads. Both tools help indie authors grow mailing lists and sales.
StoryOrigin. I've done at least two videos with StoryOrigin featured lately because they have the ability for you to manage beta readers, which is super cool, and they have some great features to help you sell an ebook and build a landing page and so much more. Storyorigin is the place for indie authors to start building both their network and their audience. They have cross promotional marketing tools and community aspects where independent authors can collect resources and and offer resources to grow their mailing lists, increase sales and grow reviews. Regulars know this is going to be on my list because I'm a fan. Publisher Rocket is something we use every single day at Book Launchers to do keyword category and pricing research. It allows us to be on top of what is selling and how books and categories are performing. If you're running Amazon ads, they have great support and tools and the website Kindlepreneur is jammed with resources to help you save money and not be scammed.
