The Stable Book Group and Open Road Integrated Media Announce
Exclusive eBook Marketing and Distribution Partnership
[October 6, 2025, New York, NY] — The Stable Book Group (“The Stable”) and Open Road
Integrated Media (“Open Road”) today announced an exclusive eBook marketing and
distribution partnership effective November 1, 2025. Under the agreement, Open Road will
serve as the exclusive eBook distributor for The Stable’s wholly owned publishers as well as
publishers served by Stable Distribution. This relationship expands The Stable’s ability to
market and optimize pricing for backlist and frontlist eBooks across its growing portfolio.
Open Road Integrated Media brings a powerful combination of machine learning-based
marketing technology and owned consumer channels to the partnership—helping publishers
stimulate demand, improve metadata, and reach avid readers through newsletters including
Early Bird Books and genre sites. Open Road’s proprietary technology enables marketing
activity of unprecedented scale and precision, on average doubling sales of more than 90,000
titles on the platform, and sustaining these sales increases over time.
“Over the past several years, Open Road has been an invaluable partner for our publishing
houses. We have enrolled hundreds of backlist eBooks and had tremendous results. Open
Road offers our small independent publishers the type of intensive eBook marketing and price
optimization that would otherwise be out of reach for them. Open Road has helped us give
books new life and foster a new form of title discoverability,” said Keith Riegert, President, The
Stable Book Group.
“The Stable Book Group is a ground-breaking innovator in service to independent publishers,
whether they are fully owned imprints, or distribution clients,” said Heidi Sachner, SVP of
Business Development for Open Road. “We see the Stable’s tremendous growth continuing to
accelerate, and it is our privilege to be their partner and to contribute to that growth in any way
we can.”
The partnership will roll out across The Stable’s owned imprints and the client publishers it
serves through Stable Distribution, aligning operations behind a unified eBook strategy focused
on discoverability, retailer coordination, metadata excellence, and sustained growth.
