Resources for eBook Publishing

If you create your eBooks, you could use them for the following purposes:
  1. You could create eBooks that you sell.
  2. You could create eBooks that you give away free (and link to your web site or Ezine), to help promote your business.
  3. You could create eBooks that you allow us to give away free (or even sell). Again, these eBooks could link to your web site or Ezine, thus helping promote your business.
Here are some resources about eBook publishing:
  • Activ E-Book Compiler

Product Description:
Now, for the first time ever, John Locke reveals the marketing system he created to sell more than 1,100,000 eBooks in five months!

His Credentials:

John is the eighth author in the world—and the first self-published author in history—to have sold 1 million eBooks on Kindle!

He is the first self-published author to hit #1 on the Amazon/Kindle Best Seller’s List, and the first to hit both #1 and #2 at the same time!

He is a New York Times best-selling author!

He has been featured in the Wall Street Journal and Entertainment Weekly!

He has had 4 of the top 10 books on Amazon/Kindle at the same time, including #1 and #2!

He has had 7 books in the top 34 and 8 books in the Top 50 at the same time!

These numbers are not positions within a category. They are positions that include all Kindle sales including fiction, non-fiction, magazine subscriptions, and game apps!

By the middle of March, 2011, it had been calculated that “every 7 seconds, 24 hours a day, a John Locke novel is downloaded somewhere in the world.”

…All this was achieved PART TIME, without an agent, publicist, and at virtually no marketing expense!

5 STAR REVIEW - Mike Cyra, author of Emergency Laughter
Well worth your time and your dollar.

I purchased The DIY Guide To Social Media Marketing and eBook Publishing well after I had published my first eBook. As a first time, self-taught ebook publisher, I felt I had done things pretty good and my book was doing remarkably well.

I decided to buy this guide book when I was getting ready to publish my second eBook for two reasons.

One, I had forgotten everything I had done to properly publish the first book and I needed a current, easy to read, comprehensive format to guide me through the steps again.

The second reason was I needed to step back, re-evaluate my first ebook and make sure I was utilizing every resource available to push my sales to the next level.

I got everything I needed from Coral Russell’s DIY Guide book. It was the best dollar I ever spent. It refreshed my memory, guided me through the steps of self-publishing and showed me valuable things I hadn't done before. Above all it saved me time and frustration so I could get back to writing.

There is a wealth of informational links in this book. I liked this because she had already investigated the best links to offer me and this saved me time...so I could get back to writing. I do recommend you view this book on a PC because of the amount of links in it. For me, it was easier and faster.

I was very pleased with this guide book. I highly recommend it.

From The Author

After two years of hard work, I retired at age 38.

The above is absolutely true, and without the Amazon Kindle I couldn’t have realized this dream. The amazing part is, if I took another run at it I could make the same money, or more in less than half the time. Am I rich? No, but I am comfortable and moving into very comfortable, and I can teach you to have the same.

Are you a writer? Have something you can teach? These are the basic ingredients needed to create an information product that can sell on the Kindle. However, it isn’t that simple. Just a slightly wrong choice of niche can make your precious book worthless.

Did you know that the majority of Kindle books barely sell at all? Why is this? A number of reasons, all of which can be easily overcome. I walk you through all the confusion that I first faced trying to make my work successful on the Kindle, and it isn’t that hard.

Is this a guaranteed money maker? Heck no, nothing is, but I can assure you a much greater, down to earth, chance of success than that guy that sold 5 million ebooks in three months. This is real, and my advice is designed for a beginner to get a foot hold on Amazon and make some real income.

Want to make money on your non-fiction book, and do it right without spending a ton of money or dealing with a greedy publisher? It isn’t as hard as you think, but it certainly is easy to mess up. Let me help you be a success on the Kindle and join me in telling your boss those beautiful words... “I QUIT!”
