The goal of every author and editor is to publish the best book possible that will connect with target readers. Unfortunately, even with the best expert editors, there are gaps in understanding how readers will react. How to fill those gaps? Ask actual readers!

With our unique Target Reader Manuscript Reaction (TRMR) solution, TAI guarantees 12 to 20 responses from our First Look Reader™ community and asks dozens of qualitative questions that have been carefully crafted by seasoned industry professionals, including writers, editors and publishers.

With our Target Reader Manuscript Analysis (TRMA) solution, we include editorial analysis on the target reader’s inputs and provide guidance on how to strengthen the manuscript, using in-depth reader feedback data.

The final report is in your hands in under 3 weeks (special rush projects may be available).
