The Beta Reader Toolkit is a ready-to-use resource that helps authors confidently recruit, manage, and gather feedback from beta readers. It includes everything you need to make the process simple and professional — from email templates to invite and follow up with readers, to a structured set of evaluation questions designed to capture both detailed insights and measurable feedback.
Inside, you’ll learn the difference between beta readers and ARC readers, how many beta readers to recruit, and the best practices for organizing and interpreting their feedback without losing your author voice. The toolkit also provides a recommended structure for questions (open-ended, scaled, multiple choice, and yes/no) so you can create an evaluation form that gets results.
Whether you’re writing your first book or your fifth, this toolkit equips you with a clear system to collect honest, constructive feedback and turn it into actionable improvements — helping you deliver a polished book that resonates with your audience
