Marketing With Kindle Personal Use Ebook

Ebook Sample Content Preview:

I’m sure that many people reading this are writers. Maybe you’re a ghostwriter looking to branch out and do your own thing. Or, maybe you enjoy writing fiction in your spare time and you’d like to self-publish without dealing with manuscript rejections.

I’m also sure that some people reading this don’t consider themselves to be a writer at all. Maybe you’ve heard a lot of Kindle success stories and you’d like a piece of the pie. That’s totally fine. In fact, you can outsource all of the writing and just concentrate on the marketing yourself, if you want to. The only important thing is that the reader receives an outstanding book when they make that purchase.

The Kindle opportunity is there for anyone who wants to take advantage of it. I do want to caution you, however, that you can’t just use old PLR or slap some words on a page and expect it to sell. Kindle readers are particularly savvy. They are also tired of spending their money on indie books only to find that they are horribly written or poorly formatted. You don’t have to be a fantastic writer, but you do have to provide quality and value, however you go about it. Kindle has automated systems in place to detect things like PLR and plagiarism, so make sure you steer clear of that, not that you would try it.

Writing Vs. Marketing

Kindle publishing is very unique because you are both the writer and the marketer. As I mentioned earlier, some writers get really discouraged because they just want to write and don’t want to do the other stuff. I want to encourage you to move past that mindset. Unless you are extremely lucky, your book isn’t going to sell itself.

Yes, Amazon does have systems in place to help authors make sales, but you typically have to get the first several sales yourself...then, you’ll go on some of the links on the site. That’s part of why I have you consider this a snowball method-- the work you do on the front end is really going to help you in the long run.

My goal here is to break the marketing down in a way that is not intimidating, even if you’ve never done anything like this before.

A self-published Kindle author is both a writer and marketer, so get used to the role.
