RADAR by Jellybooks
reader analytics, data, and audience research
Jellybooks RADAR offers publishers the ability to gather detailed audience insights.
We provide affordable market research that is title-specific to publishers of fiction and narrative non-fiction for readers aged thirteen years and up.
As part of a Jellybooks RADAR campaign, we conduct audience research for single titles with focus groups of 300 to 800 test readers whom we provide with a specially modified ebook that records their reading and engagement data.
We also undertake multi-title campaigns with online focus groups of between 1,000 to 3,000 participants allowing multiple titles to be tested and compared quantitatively. Jellybooks RADAR is an upgraded version of the classical “reader analytics” by Jellybooks as featured in the New York Times, The Guardian, The Economist, and The Bookseller.
