Why write and publish an eBook?
The Internet has revolutionized so many industries and businesses. In the publishing world, in particular, it has levelled the playing field, allowing authors to take control and publish their work without having to go through the “gatekeepers,” i.e. traditional publishers. And over99%of books put out on shelves by traditional publishers do not turn a profit – which means the author doesn’t earn anything.
If you’re an online marketer, entrepreneur, writer, blogger, or maybe a chef, here is why you should consider writing an eBook.
- To prove your authority
- eReaders are continually growing day by day
- An eBook will fortify all your other online marketing efforts
- Limitless opportunities to grow and expand your business or ideas through publishing an eBook
If you want to get noticed in the digital age, waiting for someone to choose you is the worst strategy. You have everything you need to start sharing your message today – fingers, keyboard, and the Internet.
Why Amazon?
Amazon is much more than an online shopping cart or web store. Amazon is alargest 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.
