I posted this the other day, but buried it at the end of a longer note, and now I’m realizing that many readers probably skipped that post. So if you’ve already seen this, I apologize, but it’s important enough that I want to be sure I’m hearing from everybody who might have an opinion.
The long and short is that I need to start contemplating ways that ImmerseOrDie might generate revenue, but without compromising either the quality or the accessibility of what we’ve been doing to date. I fully intend to keep offering IOD reports for free (free to both IOD followers and submitting indie authors), but I’m exploring some other ideas to potentially help support that effort with revenue from other places and activities.
What other ideas? Well, I’ve put together a quick survey over here that will explain. Can I ask you to take 4 minutes to check it out and tell me what you think? (That’s the average time it has taken people to respond so far.)
I’d really like to hear from as many people as possible. Yes, even you. All you have to do is answer 5 multiple-choice questions about the various ideas I’m kicking around, and that will help me immensely as I try to shape the next phase of ImmerseOrDIe.
Thanks very much for your time.
