$4000 Audiobook Stretch Goal

Update #1 · Apr 25, 2012 · 5 comments

We did it!

Or more precisely, you all did it. GUESSWORK has blown away its $1000 goal in only five days. That means that a hardcover "Advanced Reader Copy" is on its way to production and ultimately the hands of reviewers. It also means everyone will be getting their rewards. Excellent!

Now for the stretch goal...

After doing a little research and negotiation, I've identified the next big marketing item that'll get GUESSWORK to a larger audience: an Audiobook version! So starting now, if we can reach the uber-ambitious stretch goal of $4000, everyone at the $15 donation level and above will also receive a DRM-free MP3 audiobook.

So please spread the word!

Super big thanks to everyone who's contributed so far. :D

      Ah, I get it now. Sure! Anyone buying a physical reward can bump an additional $5 to get the eBook.

      Sorry for not being clear. Digital can be taken as the audiobook or as a PDF, epub, etc file, and I was referring to the later combo at $20: Paperback, eBook and, if 4k is reaced, audiobook as well hehehe.

      Hey Antonio,

      At the $15 level you get both... assuming we reach the goal. :)

      Everyone who's already pledged at least $15 will get the audiobook, so you don't need to raise your amount unless you want to. Thanks for the clarification!

      Would you consider adding a $20 level where we get the paperback and the digital book? Thanks!
