BookStubs
What are BookStubs?
BookStubs are gift-card-style cards that contain a free download of your eBook. One side of the card depicts your eBook's cover design; the other offers the necessary information to find and download one copy of the book. These promotional tools are perfect for marketing your digital book in the real world. Hand them out at book or networking events, sign them at book signings, offer them as contest giveaways, or keep them on hand for everyday promotional opportunities.
You can purchase BookStubs from the Book Country services store in quantities of 10 or 20. BookStubs are also included as a part of our Discover and Prospect publishing packages.
The BookStub Report in your online Book Country Publishing Dashboard will help you keep track of the number of copies of your eBook that have been redeemed through BookStubs.

I have a BookStub for a Book Country eBook. Where do I redeem it?
Visit the main BookStub page and enter the promo code that appears on the back of your BookStub to redeem your free eBook download. You will be able to select which file format you'd like to download ― ePub, mobi or PDF. Choose wisely, as you can download only one format with your BookStub.

How can I know if people are redeeming the BookStubs I've given them?
We've set up a BookStub Report tab in your online Book Country Publishing Dashboard. You can run this report at any time to see how many of your BookStubs have been redeemed. For each BookStub redeemed, we'll provide you with information regarding when the eBook was downloaded as well as what format (ePub, mobi or PDF) was selected.

What is the BookStub Report?
We created the BookStub Report for authors who have purchased BookStubs (available in our services store and included in our Discover and Prospect publishing packages) as a way to promote their eBooks.
