Turn Your Book Into a Chatbot That Grows Your Email List

A simple way to connect with readers and build your list — without extra tools, tech, or funnels

You already know:

  • Most websites are static—readers visit, browse, and leave
  • Social media followers rarely convert into email subscribers
  • Pop-up forms are ignored unless trust is already built

Meanwhile, your readers have questions.

Right after reading—or even midway through—they’re curious, engaged, and looking for answers.

That moment of curiosity is the perfect time to invite them to your list.

Mobile phone with chatbot

📚 What if your book could hold conversations
— and grow your email list?

Instead of sending readers to a stale website or a generic form, imagine this:

  • A reader chats directly with a bot trained on your book
  • They ask a real question—just like they would in conversation
  • They get a helpful answer, instantly
  • And right in that moment, the bot gently incentivizes them to join your list

✅ Builds trust
✅ Sparks conversations
✅ Attracts qualified subscribers
✅ Runs on autopilot

No complicated setup.
No landing pages.
No tech headaches.
Just copy, paste, and grow.

Why It Works

📘 Captures Readers at the Right Moment

When someone clicks your bot link, they’re already curious and ready to engage. That’s when your chatbot steps in—answering their question and naturally inviting them to join your email list. No pop-ups. No pressure. Just well-timed value.

📊 Works While You Sleep

Your chatbot is available 24/7—building trust, answering questions, and collecting emails even while you're offline. It’s like having a personal assistant for your book—without the overhead.

🎯 Pre-Qualified Subscribers

Anyone chatting with your bot is already engaged in your content. That makes your list warmer, more relevant, and your future offers more effective.

🎁 Bonus: Instant Reader Insights

Even if a reader doesn't subscribe, their questions are saved. Use them to uncover what your audience cares about most—perfect for shaping future books, courses, or emails.

Key Features

📘 Trained on Your Book

Upload your manuscript—we turn it into a smart chatbot that answers real reader questions using your actual content.

💬 Conversational List Building

Engage readers in natural Q&A. When trust is high, your bot gently invites them to join your email list—no popups, no pressure.

📥 Email List Integration

Export to CSV or connect directly to tools like Mailchimp and Zapier to send leads where you need them.

🎨 Custom Branding

Match your bot's look and feel to your author brand—colors, fonts, avatar, tone, and more.

📈 Insights Dashboard

Track questions asked, emails captured, and overall engagement with a clean, easy-to-use dashboard.

⚡ Works Everywhere

Embed on your website or share a hosted link. Readers can interact on desktop, mobile, or tablet—friction-free.

🎁 Bonus: A Built-In Focus Group for Future Books and Products

Even when readers don't join your list, their questions give you priceless insights:

  • Find out what readers really care about.
  • Identify ideas for your next book, workbook, blog, or course.
  • Understand where your explanations resonate—and where they leave readers wanting more.

Your bot becomes a live, ongoing focus group.

(Without paying thousands for consultants or market research.)
