I'm not looking for your (unsolicited) advice or your alleged honesty, as you don't know the facts of my business and are unfamiliar with my books. It would be more helpful if you just stuck to the question posed, which is whether or not Bookbub's numbers/results support the hype.

English is very much my first language. The problem was/is you came in asking if Bookbub was worth it. I was reading all your posts.
I assumed you were asking to see if we thought it would be worth it to you.
Especially when you said your colleagues. Although I thought that was an odd word choice as most authors don't work in the same place.
No I don't know you or your books but that is my standard advice to new authors.
Why are you worried about Bookbub if you are not planning to use them?
As to your original question,
Apparently many authors think so or they wouldn't be getting those prices.
Now I know many authors that would say no because of the cost and that they either got turned down or didn't want to reduce their price to get a Bookbub.
See Bookbub is mostly for on sale books, In other words, you only reduce your book price for a few days.
I know one author that swears by Bookbub. He has posted his numbers on another forum.
I refuse to link the other forum for personal reasons but Google Writers Cafe. It is the one that starts with a k.
Oh and good luck with whatever you decide.
