21 Book Sales Tracking Software
When you use tracking you can monitor the effectiveness of your advertising, social media campaigns, and personal appearances. You can also use tracking to see if changes in metadata (keywords, book descriptions, book covers) are working to get it in front of the right audience.

TrackerBox for Windows

Unfortunately for me, a Mac user, TrackerBox is only available for Windows users. It tracks your book sales across all the major retailers and generates reports that will help you with your sales strategy. Users report that it’s well worth the one-time fee of $59.99.
