Reader Loop Machine
Keep every reader and sell them the next book: back matter, reader bonus page copy, a free QR and link generator, a 12-email reader sequence, an ARC team system with tracker, a compliant review funnel and launch email blasts, all from one Book Profile.
What is the Reader Loop Machine? A retention desk inside ContentCraft AI for KDP authors. The end of one book sells the next: a bonus page turns readers into subscribers, a 12-email sequence turns subscribers into reviewers and repeat buyers, an ARC team launches the next book, and the back matter of every book restarts the loop. Each built prompt costs 1 credit. The QR generator and the ARC tracker are free.
How it works
Book Profile: you fill it in once. It holds the book title, the author name, the book type, the genre, the reader, what makes the book different, the formats, the Amazon link, the prices, the series, your other books and your voice.
Pick a loop tool: each of the six prompt tools has its own inputs, such as the pages to include in the back matter or the bonus you offer. The machine assembles one complete prompt with your profile at the top and the rules at the bottom.
Run it in your AI: you copy the prompt into your own AI chat and run it there. Nothing is written by an AI on our servers.
Use the free tools here: the QR generator builds a print-ready code for your bonus page on the spot, and the ARC tracker keeps your advance reader team in one list you can export as CSV or JSON.
What's inside
- Back Matter Builder: the complete final pages of the book: thank-you note, Amazon-compliant review request, reader bonus offer, next-in-series teaser, also-by list and author note, in the order readers act on them.
- Reader Bonus Page Copy: headline options, bullets, form copy, button text, thank-you page and confirmation email for the page where a reader trades an email for your bonus, ready for MailerLite or Kit.
- QR & Link Generator: paste your bonus page URL and get the QR code as a print-ready PNG at 512, 1024 or 2048 pixels, plus the caption line that goes under it. No AI, always free.
- 12-Email Reader Sequence: the twelve automated emails a new subscriber receives over 30 days, from welcome and bonus delivery to the honest review ask and the next book, with a schedule overview and a compliance check.
- ARC Team System: the recruitment post, application form, welcome email and reminders for your advance reader team, written inside Amazon's rules: a free copy, an honest review welcome, never required, never rewarded.
- ARC Tracker: one row per reader with delivery, status and review tracking, live counts, and CSV and JSON export. No AI, always free.
- Review Funnel: the "Did you enjoy the book?" page that gives every reader the same Amazon review link, derived from your book's ASIN, plus the private feedback route and the email that sends readers to the page.
- Launch Email Blast: three launch emails to your reader list: it is live, the story and the proof, and the last call, with real facts only and zero hype.
- Book Profile: one saved profile feeds all seven tools. You can export it as JSON together with your ARC tracker, keep the file, and import it again later; the file also works in the Book Traffic Domination apps.
Frequently asked questions
What does the Reader Loop Machine build?
Seven loop tools from one Book Profile: a complete back matter set for the end of your book, the copy for a reader bonus page that trades an email for a bonus, a print-ready QR code for your bonus page URL, a 12-email automated sequence for new subscribers, an ARC team system with a reader tracker, a compliant review funnel page, and three launch emails for release week.
How much does each tool cost?
Each of the six prompt tools costs 1 credit from your ContentCraft balance, charged only after the prompt has been built. The QR and Link Generator and the ARC tracker run inside ContentCraft with no AI, and they are always free. Saving your Book Profile costs nothing, and you can export it as JSON together with your ARC tracker and import it again at no cost.
Does ContentCraft write the copy for me?
No. The six prompt tools assemble a complete prompt from your Book Profile and the options you pick, and you run it in your own ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini. Nothing is written by an AI on our servers. The QR code and the tracker are the two parts computed here, deterministically and with no AI at all.
Is the review funnel inside Amazon's rules?
Yes. The prompts are built around Amazon's Community Guidelines: ask only for an honest review, never for a positive or 5-star review, never offer anything in exchange for a review, and never make a free copy or a bonus conditional on reviewing. The ARC system follows the same line: a free advance copy is allowed, a review is welcome, never required and never rewarded.
