SUMMARY:Talking Tech (BookMachine Unplugged Online 2022)
DESCRIPTION:Thanks to our Tech Stream sponsors: Typefi\, Bookalope\, MetaComet\, Unite the Union and Shulph \n\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n		\n\n  \nThe science of reading: How data can change how we publish\nReading books is seen as a deeply personal experience where the only feedback is a good or bad review. Imagine if you could find out how much your readers actually read\, where they struggled\, when they dropped out\, and what they share with their friends to help improve your publishing programme? \n  \nThis kind of intelligence can transform the publishing process from commissioning through to marketing and sales. It can help publishers develop and build habit forming products\, bring readers back into books\, and push completion rates up. \n  \nJoin BookMachine Editorial Board Member Emmanuel Kolade and a range of expert speakers on Wednesday 11th May 2022 from 6-7pm BST\, to hear how you can build engagement techniques for your books using data and analytics. This discussion will take you beyond the standard industry sales data and will consider the challenge of how we send our products off into other proprietary systems which has prevented us from understanding so much for too long. Hear about the experience of other sectors\, discover existing initiatives within publishing\, and identify what you need to know to turn casual readers into avid advocates.  \n  \nUsage data can illustrate the attributes of successful titles. And if we apply this scientific approach to understand reading\, we can transform writing\, commissioning and sales. \n  \nTalking Tech will sit within the Tech Stream\, which runs throughout 2022. In the Tech Stream\, you can find upcoming events\, interviews\, details of our Stream sponsors\, blog posts and resources to help you learn new skills and develop in your career. \n  \nAbout BookMachine Unplugged 2022\nThe Unplugged Online event series is designed to help inspire you\, build on your knowledge and reveal exciting new ideas for you to harness when you’re back at your desk. \nThe theme for this year’s series is the “Year of Change”.
