Launch Your Book with Confidence. Manage Your Entire ARC Team on Autopilot.

Say goodbye to messy spreadsheets, manual emails, and file leaks. The ultimate WordPress solution for Authors & Publishers to manage Advance Review Copies.

Is Managing Your Launch Team Draining Your Creative Energy?

Writing the book was hard enough. Getting early reviews shouldn’t be a nightmare. As an author, you likely struggle with:

The Email Chaos: Manually sending hundreds of PDF/EPUB files to readers and losing track of who got what.

The “Freeloader” Issue: People who grab your free book but never leave a review. How do you identify and stop them?

File Security Risks: Sending direct download links via email, risking your book being shared publicly before launch.

Chasing Reviews: Feeling awkward about sending multiple follow-up emails to remind readers about deadlines.

Tracking Madness: Trying to match Amazon and Goodreads usernames to email addresses in a giant Excel sheet.

If this sounds familiar, you need a smarter system.

Introducing RS ARC Manager – Advance Review Copy Management System

RS ARC Manager is a powerful, enterprise-grade WordPress plugin designed specifically for authors and publishers. It transforms your WordPress site into a fully automated ARC distribution and management hub. You focus on writing; we handle the marketing logistics.

Why RS ARC Manager is the Industry Standard? (Key Features)

🛡️ 1. Secure File Delivery & Protection

Stop worrying about your book files being shared publicly on direct download links. RS ARC Manager uses a Token-Based Secure Download System.

Hidden Links: Real file paths are never exposed to the user.

Access Control: Only approved users can generate a secure, temporary download link.

Bot Protection: Keeps your files safe from search engine indexing and unauthorized sharing.

📊 2. Reputation Score Engine (Bad Apple Detector)

Stop guessing who your real fans are. The system calculates a dynamic “Reputation Score” (0-100%) for every applicant based on their past review history.

Bad User (<30%): Flags freeloaders automatically. Easily vet applicants and build a high-quality street team.

Super Fan (90%+): Approves instantly.

📧 3. Smart 4-Stage Email Automation

Never send a manual reminder again. The plugin includes a sophisticated “Drip Notification” system:

Final Warning: Sent before the grace period ends. All emails are fully customizable and trigger automatically based on the deadline.

7 Days Before: Gentle reminder to start reading.

1 Day Before: Urgent deadline alert.

Deadline Missed: Automatic overdue notice.

🖥️ 4. Professional Reviewer Dashboard

Give your readers a VIP experience. They get a dedicated dashboard where they can:

Submit Reviews: Paste their Amazon and Goodreads links directly into the system for verification.

View all approved books in one place.

Securely download files (PDF, EPUB, MOBI).

🚀 5. Embargo & Launch Day Strategy

Coordinate your review team for maximum impact. The Embargo System keeps the “Submit Review” form locked until your specific launch date.

The Result: A sudden spike in review activity signals the Amazon algorithm that your book is trending, helping you rank higher organically.

Why it works: This prevents scattered early reviews and encourages your team to post their reviews on Amazon on the same day (Launch Day).

6. Auto-Ban & Restriction Logic

Maintain a high-quality team. Users who consistently miss deadlines or fail to submit reviews are automatically marked as “Restricted”. They are blocked from applying for future books until they clear their record.

How It Works: Launch a Campaign in 3 Steps

1) Create Campaign:

Upload your book files, set the number of seats, and define the deadline.

2) Recruit:

Share your auto-generated campaign page link. Readers apply directly on your site.

3) Approve & Relax::

Review applicants’ scores, click “Approve,” and let the plugin handle the rest (file delivery, reminders, and tracking).

Powerful Admin Tools for Total Control

Real-time Notifications:

Get instant email alerts when a new user applies or submits a review.

One-Click Verification:

View submitted Amazon and Goodreads links directly from your admin panel to verify reviews.

Data Portability:

Export your entire applicant list (with emails and stats) to CSV for your newsletter marketing.
