We've had some feedback about this so we're toying with a new pricing model. See http://tablo.io/plans http://tablo.io/plans More inline with a blogging servic

  Yeah I think that's pretty okay I guess. I'm guessing it shouldn't look like this: http://i.imgur.com/QfWgsHs.png http://i.imgur.com/QfWgsHs.png

    Nope, just a mockup. We'll make the real one look pretty :)

  That's much better– I came to comment on the same thing. The people with fewer titles are the ones who need the royalties much more so than anyone else so the current pricing comes across as a hedge on one small author blowing up rather than developing an ecosystem which benefits all small authors. I imagine down the line there are many more services you could offer in exchange for royalties that would make sense– the analytics are one except they're very helpful at the base level too. Perhaps an additonal layer/finer grained analytics, a featured catalog, other promotional services, etc...

  The value you're providing is not obvious. It's really easy to publish an infinite amount of books on the Kindle store; I haven't tried iBookstore but I guess it's not very hard either (and do we need to care about them? What's their market share?) I'm not ready to pay someone to just sit between me and the Kindle store; and I certainly won't surrender any royalties for this. There are things in your presentation that do sound interesting, though: - early feedback as the book is being written (that could maybe result in good word-of-mouth marketing) - "incredible" sales reports But in any case, I think the pricing should be more inline with DistroKid ($20 annual flat fee, 100% royalties, infinite amount of titles).
