Paying Royalties

If any of you out there reading this have to pay royalties, I'd like to tell you a story and recommend a program to you...

I've been using Dashbook (http://www.dashbook.com/) since its Beta testing version. And I've had my share of problems with it--like you do with most new software. But what I've never experienced with other programs, like I have with Dashbook, is immediate feedback, help and support. From a REAL LIVE PERSON! Actually, from their entire team. I've decided I'm really good at breaking the program (I'm a hard user, honestly. Very few could do the job I do of breaking it.). Of course I always break it worst at critical moments for me--when it's time to actually pay my authors, (over there at http://www.dragonmoonpress.com/), and it's usually urgent and I think often a result of the fact that I have a series one vista machine. Anyway, the guys really step up. For each problem I find or create, they fix it. Even if that means they have to work all weekend. When's the last time your software company did that for you?

If you need to track sales, pay royalties or otherwise deal with publishing specific sales, I'd highly recommend Dashbook. It really does work! I know other very satisfied customers too! And kudos to the team at Dashbook--you deserve the shoutout!
