Join our hosts for a focused deep dive into one of indie publishing’s biggest headaches—tracking book sales across multiple platforms. In this episode, they break down David Vierguts’ article from Indie Author Magazine, shining a spotlight on ScribeCount, the tool designed to centralize and simplify your sales, ad, and review data as an independent author.

Navigating messy spreadsheets and disparate dashboards? Walk through how ScribeCount aggregates your sales info from Amazon, Kobo, Apple, direct sales (like WooCommerce and Shopify), and even pulls in ad and review data, all onto a single, customizable dashboard. Learn about standout features like sunburst charts, ad ROI tracking, and even built-in price monitoring that can alert you to possible piracy.

If you want to spend less time wrangling data and more time writing, this episode will help you see if ScribeCount is the right solution for your author business.
