Research-led support for helping books reach interested readers.
Every engagement starts with understanding the book. What follows depends on what the research honestly shows.
Goodreads Listopia Research
Goodreads Listopia is a collection of public, reader-created lists where readers discover books and vote on list entries. Some lists are closely relevant to a given book; many are not.
The research considers:
- Genre and subgenre
- Relevant themes and subject matter
- Intended audience
- List relevance and suitability
- Available opportunities and their limitations
The assessment is research-led. Identifying a list does not mean it will be suitable or deliver results.
Book Discovery Planning
Research findings can inform a practical plan for improving a book's visibility among readers who may genuinely be interested in it — which lists are worth attention, which reader communities overlap with the book's themes, and what realistic activity could look like.
Planning helps you make informed decisions. It does not automatically produce more sales or reviews.
Reader-Engagement Campaigns
Campaign work may include agreed discussion activities, supporting creative content, selected reader channels and reporting — depending on the scope agreed for your book.
Not every campaign includes every channel or deliverable. Scope and price are agreed in writing before work begins.
