PUBLISHING
EBOOKS – IS THERE A MARKET FOR YOU?
Hi, and welcome again. Today
I want to show you how to practically earn money online writing eBooks.
The eBook industry is
growing into one of the biggest publishing companies in the world today, with
brands like Amazon Kindle Direct Publishing topping the list. Statistic shows
that the world is gradually moving into buying and selling of eBooks, and
gradually paving way to the end of traditional books.
Just thinks of this: “Do
you prefer dressing up, just to go to a bookstore to buy a N3000 book? Or would
you prefer to buy it online at your own convenience with just one click while
resting in your bedroom for N1500?” EBooks sells cheaper than physical books.
I deem it fit to always introduce myself
before telling you how to do what I preach. Once again, I’m Kingdom Amaku, a
professional online consultant and freelancer with 5 years experience. I have
published many books on Amazon Kindle, and make over $2000 monthly doing this. This
is a link to my first book on Kindle TWILIGHT STORIES. How did I write that book? Easy,
the book was about regular tales my mother used to tell me when I was young. I published
that book on August 2016, and before September I’ve sold 58 copies making
around $235.98. So you see, no much hard work, yet huge income within a month. That
book is my lowest selling book on Amazon. Why? Because there is not much market
for it!
I want to show you how to make $1000
monthly publishing eBooks on Kindle. All I need from you is your attention.
Wait, are you a so-called guru? Woe to
you because I will give out that information’s you’ve been selling for free. And
if you, yes you reading this post, need my help in writing good eBooks for you,
I can do that for you. Just use my phone number below an call me right away. Can
I write a good eBook? If you think the post in this blog is rich, then in same
way I will write an information rich eBook for you which you can sell for huge
income online and or offline.
MAIN BUSINESS
The website I use in
publishing my eBooks is called Amazon
Kindle Direct Publishing. This website has a huge daily visitors looking
for products to buy, and sure if you have a good product the probability of you
making $1000 monthly is extremely high.
I started off in August 2016, and today I have
published 8 books on Amazon, each generating at least $1500 monthly. That’s a
total of $12,000 monthly. You too can do that; all you’ve to do is model my
techniques.
The first step to making money on this
website is to get a Payoneer account.

Now, all you’ve to do in order to become rich
publishing on Amazon Kindle is: research selling niche. What is a selling
niche? Simple definition:. This is a niche that people invest their money
regularly into. For instance, you are reading this post because you want to
make money online. You can call this niche “Information Marketing Niche”.
I will not
be showing you how to discover selling niche here, but I want to teach you how
to start as an eBook Publisher.
INTRODUCING
AMAZON KINDLE...
Why Amazon?
Forget what you think you know about Amazon. It’s
much more than an online shopping cart or web store. There’s a reason guys like Guy Kawasaki and Seth
Godin have published exclusively to Amazon. It has a lot going for it:
- Amazon
is largest paid search engine in the world. People don’t Google things
with their credit cards out, ready to buy, like they do with Amazon.
- Amazon
dominates the book market.
- Amazon’s
review system is an authority metric (even if someone plans to buy
elsewhere).
- Amazon
is a marketing machine. Once you start selling a certain number of copies,
it refers your book to others who have never heard of you.
- Amazon
makes it easy. You can publish elsewhere, but few places get your book
online and ready in a matter of hours. When you publish first (and maybe
exclusively) to Amazon, you concentrate your sales in a single place and
can climb the best sellers lists faster.
Yes, you can get published, see your message spread,
and make good money using nothing more than a keyboard and your brain. Here’s
how:
Step 1: Write
When publishing an e-book, the first step is, of
course, to write it. Think in terms of three drafts:
1.
The “vomit draft.” This
is just what it sounds like—you’re throwing up on the blank page. Certainly not
the most warming image, but you get the idea. Here, you will write the Table of
Contents, sketch out each chapter, and put down all your ideas, scenes, and
stories. Don’t make it pretty; just make it.
2.
The review draft. This
is where you spend some time developing what you want to say and how. At this
point, you should share the work with a few close friends for feedback.
3.
The editorial draft. This
is where you get help from a professional or close friend who knows not only
grammar, but story structure and elements of style.
Each draft may, in fact, have multiple versions and
iterations. But this three-step approach will help you get the work finished
without endlessly stalling.
Step 2: Format and Design
Once you’ve written a book you’re proud of, here’s
what to do next:
1.
Format it for Kindle. You
can try this yourself using a program called Calibre, or you can just pay
someone to do it—which I recommend. If this is your life’s work, it’s worth
paying a few hundred dollars to get it done right.
2.
Design the cover. Please
don’t skimp on this or have your cousin Vinny who just discovered PhotoShop
“take a whack at it.” If you’re on a budget, check out 99 Designs or Crowdspring,
both affordable crowd-sourcing services. Ask for an image that is a JPEG file
and at least 2500 pixels on the longest side with a height/weight ratio of 1.6
(what Amazon recommends in their publishing
guidelines).
3.
Double check everything and
have friends proofread for errors.
This is an important step, so don’t blaze through
it. If you need more guidance, check out TheBookDesigner.com.
Step 3: Publish
How do you actually make your book available for
sale on Amazon.com? This is, perhaps, the part that intimidates most people.
And the truth is it shouldn’t. All it takes is twelve simple steps:
1.
Go to kdp.amazon.com and
sign in (you’ll need an Amazon account).
2.
Register your tax info for royalties.
3.
Click “Bookshelf” and then “Add new
title.”
4.
Fill out the form, including book title,
description, and keywords you want people to search to find your book.
5.
Upload the cover file (JPEG format).
6.
Upload the book file.
7.
Test your book with Amazon’s online
viewer to make sure it looks right.
8.
Click “Save and continue” and advance to
the “Rights and Pricing” page.
9.
Choose “Worldwide Rights.”
10.
Choose a 70% royalty rate and select
your price, letting the international prices adjust based on the US price. Most
e-books are priced $2.99-9.99 (this is what I recommend to maximize your
royalty rate).
11.
Click Save and Publish.
12.
Amazon will email you when the book is
ready, which may take 24–48 hours but often happens much more quickly.
Step 4: Promote
Now, you’re ready to tell the world about your book.
But before you do that, you need some reviews. Reviews are important, because
they’re your “social proof” that will legitimize your work to new readers.
Before the book’s release, send the book to friends,
family, and followers online who would be willing to leave a review. If you
don’t know anyone who would be willing to do that, check out StoryCartel.com,
a platform that helps authors get free, ethical reviews.
Once the book is published, remind your early
readers to leave reviews. Expect 25-50% of those who promised, to actually
comply. And they don’t all have to be 5-star reviews. In fact, having a few
honest critiques of your work will give it a greater authority than a bunch of
superficial praise.
People can leave reviews on Amazon only a few days
before the book is published. So one way to get around this is to publish your
book a week before you tell anyone about it. That way, you can build up a good
amount of early reviews, which help sell the book to new readers. When it
“officially” releases, you can then direct people to the page where they will
see some glowing reviews of your work.
Step 5: Launch
After you get some reviews, it’s time to launch your
e-book. Every book launch should be unique, but here are a few things that work
every time:
1.
Send an email to your list of friends,
family, and/or blog subscribers, announcing the release of your book.
2.
Offer an incentive for those who buy the
book. This can be a time-sensitive offer or ongoing opportunity. Andy
Traub, who made over $20,000 in 90 days with an eBook, gave away the
audiobook, 30-day email course, and exclusive membership to an online community
with his book. Make it a no-brainer that people can’t pass up.
3.
Promote the book via word-of-mouth and
social media. Clicktotweet.com is
a great resource for hand-crafting messages that people can easily share.
Another effective strategy is to use a launch team of volunteers to help you
spread the word.
4.
Share your e-book with online forums and
book directories. Kimanzi Constable, who sold over 80,000 copies of his
books, said this was a key strategy.
5.
As the book begins to sell, tell people
about it. This is called “social proof” and will create a snowball effect that
can help you sell even more.
6.
Give the book away. Brandon
Clements, who struggled to sell more than a few hundred copies of his novel
in a year, decided to give away the e-book version. And in a week, over 60,000
people downloaded it. The next week, he sold another 2,000 copies.
Books can spread pretty fast when everything is
digital: the product, the promotion, the distribution. In other words, if you
ever wanted to get a message in front of a lot of people, there’s never been a
better time.
If you want me to help you set up a Kindle store and
write 2 eBooks for you for just N5,000 PER book, call me. I will also promote
your books till you make your first $1000.
