Have you considered an Awakin iBook?
Here at Awakin we not only make smartphone apps, but as a digital publishing company we also create and publish iBooks.
For those unfamiliar with iBooks, it’s basically an eBook but that only available on apple. Having already had great success with our Titanic Island Interactive iBook we have started production on our latest venture - The Irish In Stories. Both of these books have great interactive elements and use audio and visuals aids to lift the story - and that’s the power of an iBook.
We know an iBook isn’t right for every small business but it could be used by bloggers, travel writers and tourism businesses, we’ve even consulted on a Ryder Cup golf guide ibook. But why should you invest in an iBook, what’s so special about them? Well here’s Awakin’s run down on the best features of an iBook:
- Awakin iBooks can be interactive - certainly most important to us and our past work, iBooks give you the ability to add audio, video and animations as well as cool widgets such as 3D objects.
- Awakin iBooks can have hyperlinks - Link out to external content, drive traffic to your online shop the possibilities are endless!
- No shipping or packaging required - because Awakin iBooks are delivered through the internet digitally there’s none of the usual publishing costs.
- They’re digital - Users can read them anywhere and store them on their device making the device a portable library. Also because they’re digital no trees are required to produce one!
- They’re instant - a user can buy/download a book anytime day or night and have access to it immediately, click here for an example of how easy it is!
