The Reading Club takes a whole author approach to promotion. We don't just promote one title, we try to develop author careers, build brands and traction with the goal of increasing name recognition, title awareness, following and ultimately sales.

The cost of our service is based on the author's primary genre, the total number of works, and the estimated number of readers targeted. The primary genre will be determined by our editorial team based on the works available at the time of submission.

Primary genre is selected based on best fit and may not necessarily be the genre as categorized by major retailers. For example, the majority of an author's works may be categorized as science fiction by retailers but actually by futuristic thrillers that have the broad appeal required for mystery / thriller categorization within our system. If so, that is the category our editors will choose to help the author reach the broadest number of readers possible.

The price listed below is the complete cost for the entire term of service, regardless of how many times the author and his or her works are featured. As discussed in our FAQ, the initial term of service is six months (180 days), unless you've upgraded to Always-On. After the initial period, authors who want to continue our service will need to purchase the service again at the then current rate. Note that there is also a one-time setup fee for first-time author partners of $95.

• Authors who pay the "3 or less" rate must select 1 primary title for our promotion and any other titles are secondary titles for promotion.

• Authors who pay the "4 to 12" or "More than 12" rate select 2 primary titles for our promotion and any other titles are secondary titles for promotion.

We revise the rates periodically. The number of readers targeted is for reference, for our use in determining rates to charge, and is not guaranteed, nor should it be construed in any way as the actual number of readers that will be reached. The total number of readers actually reached is dependent on many factors beyond our control, including open rates for emails, participation rates and much more.
