An ARC (Advance Reader Copy) is a free copy of your book shared before launch.
You can use it to:
- Gather early feedback and testimonials
- Generate pre-launch reviews on Amazon and Goodreads
- Build trust with bloggers, influencers, or beta readers
Distribute ARCs via PDF, EPUB, or print (for high-profile reviewers). Services like BookFunnel or StoryOrigin help streamline the process.
