Nowadays, a book should be available in all formats: paper, e-book and audio book. It is not possible to reach all readers with just one or two formats. Your book will not reach its full potential if it is not published in all formats and on all channels.
Our professional team will help with all the technical details and ensure that your book reaches every reader, no matter what format they prefer!
Some time ago, the e-book was the new thing. Many people bought electronic devices that allowed them to take advantage of the e-book without thinking about whether it was convenient or whether they would continue to use it in the future. E-books have remained with only the most loyal readers and this segment has stabilised.
The popularity of e-books published in Latvian is limited by the fact that the world's major e-book sales portals (e.g. Amazon) cannot sell e-books in Latvian.
We distribute our books in the Latvian e-bookshop las.am. However, in time, our e-books will also be available on the largest online shop for Latvian books www.buki.lv. E-books definitely have their advantages and they also have their specific readers!
The audio book is the fastest growing book format. Worldwide, in 2020, up to 50% of all books were digital (e-book/audio book). The development of digital formats looks set to continue growing rapidly. Since your book is also published as audio, you maximise the spread of your work and reach all potential readers/listeners, especially young people who have recently started favouring listening to audio files in particular and headphones are an indispensable accessory for young people.
This is not without mentioning the very popular podcasts (on the Spotify platform), which more and more people are listening to and thus making good use of their time while driving, relaxing or even doing sports! It's the same with audio books – people have less and less time and are trying to make the most of it.
Our goal is to help you not only to publish your book, but also to make sure it reaches as many potential readers/listeners as possible! Unlike many other publishers, we offer a comprehensive publishing service! Audio books have a much longer shelf life than printed books – some studies show that 75% of printed book sales happen in the first 18 months after publication (although of course there are exceptions), whereas audio books generate revenue more evenly, spread over five or more years.
