- How do you promote your Kindle book?

- All of my promotion is online through Twitter, blogging, and review sites. Although I spend time on forums, it’s more to connect with other authors than to promote my work.

- What would you say to new Kindle authors, who have just published their first book on Amazon, to help them increase their book sales?

- Use your whole name for marketing (Twitter, your website, blog, etc), as uncomfortable as it may be. If a reader is trying to find you, don’t make it difficult. Keep writing and keep publishing. Despite all efforts to advertise, some books have an easier time finding an audience.

- Which web sites, services or tools do you use to promote your Kindle book?

- I’ve submitted to the following sites in some form or other…

http://www.goodreads.com

http://www.read2review.com

http://www.vampireromancebooks.com

http://indiesnippets.blogspot.com

https://sites.google.com/site/1500authors/author-submit

- Do you know about any other promotion techniques that worked well for you?

- I’ve done a free short short on Smashwords. While it’s too soon to tell if this will drive sales, I think it helps get my name out there. Too much effort goes into writing to use anything larger as a marketing tool. Be concise on the blurb and have a great cover.

Many people keep asking me how they can benefit from a resell rights product.

Let me share some of my smart reseller tips with you…

There are many ways to profit from resell rights products.

The first way, of course, is to simply resell the product. However, there are ways that you can realize even more profits. It just takes a little thought and creativity.

When you sell the product, have an additional product or products to sell as an upsell or backend product.

For instance, sell the resell product at $39.95, then have an upsell, or a related product, that you offer either on your order page for an increased price, such as $49.95 or more.

Your upsell could even be a membership website, for which you collect monthly membership fees from customers.

You can also advertise a backend product on the thank you page. This is a product that is offered after the purchase of the original product is made, for a different price. (Backend products can cost more than the original product, the same, or even less.)

You can also profit more from your resell rights products by repackaging it, including more products, and raising the value of the package – which in turn raises the price.

If you have master resell rights of the product, which allows you to sell the resell rights as well, you can create a nice package of various related products and sell resell rights to that package as well.

- Here’s an example of a new package that you can resell: http://www.instantinfoprofit.com/6plrpack

You could even simply sell the product, or give it away if you are allowed to do so, in order to use a squeeze page to collect quality leads.

A large list of quality leads opens many profitable doors. You could enter into joint venture deals to sell high ticket products to your list, or rent your list out to other companies for a fee.

However, before you start using various methods for increasing your profits with resell rights products, it is very important that you read your license agreement to be certain that you are not in violation of any of the terms.

Thank you for your support…

One of the most asked questions  that I receive from my subscribers and customers is this: “Why should I buy an Ebook with resale rights, when hundreds of other people will soon be selling the exact same Ebook everywhere else online?”

My answer is simple… You need to make yourself stand out from the rest when you want to succeed with your Ebook reseller business.

So here are some tips to make people buy your Ebook or Resale Package.

1) Don’t just use the original sales page that comes with the Ebook/product.

Instead, edit the sales page, change the text, and add some new graphics or clipart. This will make your sales page look different, and people will be more eager to buy your “original” Ebook/product.

2) Change the Ebook cover.

It’s easy to create a new cover for your Ebook. You can get some eCover action scripts online, and do it yourself in Adobe PhotoShop.

If you can’t do it yourself, or if you don’t have the time for it, you can hire a graphical Ebook cover designer on Fiverr for $5. Adding a new Ebook cover to your sales page will make your Ebook/product unique.

3) Offer a Bonus with your product.

Many people forget to do this, but it is crucial for your sales. You can write a short report on the topic of your Ebook/product, and turn it into a PDF file with the easy to use eWriter Pro software. Here’s a free PDF creation service.

You have no talent to write? Edit a couple of private label articles that are collecting dust on your hard disk, and turn them into a special report. If you have other Ebooks with resell -or give away- rights, you can add them to your main product as a Bonus gift.

You can select a report from this new Ebook package -or sell it from your own website and keep all the profits with you. Or you can download some free Resale Rights reports from my free membersite.

4) Don’t stick with Ebooks.

Successful marketers also use private label rights content in other ways. For example, you can turn the PLR content into an audio course. Or create some video tutorials from the PLR, and use these as an extra bonus. People love to get something that they can’t find anywhere else.

5) Create a niche.

Try to avoid selling a huge package of non-related Ebooks, just to impress people with numbers. Go for quality instead of quantity. You can create an Ebook package that caters to a specific niche, like gardening, pets, weight loss, etc.

Let me ask you a question… How many times have you received an email (or witnessed an ad popup on a site) promoting a weight-loss product?

If you’re like me, and surfing the net all day, then I bet you can’t really tell, right?

But have you ever wondered why so many people promote products in the diet and weight-loss niche?

Because it’s one of the MOST searched niches in Google.  Thousands of people are looking for ways to loose fat, and they all buy programs, DVD’s and books to help doing it.

There are millions being made everyday in this hot niche… and here’s where you can come in and grab your share of this HUGE market.

Check out this Warrior Special PLR Offer:

Hope this helps…

The popularity of Ebooks has EXPLODED over the past few years.  Millions of people are now reading Ebooks on their Kindle, iPad, Nook or other e-reading device. Not only are Ebooks convenient to purchase, but they are also cheap and handy to take with you when you travel or commute to work. 

Now, if you are interested in selling Ebooks to make a profit, you do not necessarily have to write your own Ebook.  Instead you can obtain private label resell rights to an existing Ebook, and then modify it to your own style.  Obtaining the private label rights (also referred to as PLR) to an Ebook give you the right to publish the work as your own, edit the contents, and cash in all the money from each sale of the book.

The biggest downside to obtaining PLR to an Ebook is the amount of money that you will have to spend.  Depending on who you do business with, the cost of acquiring private label resell rights may be fairly expensive. Since most freelance writers spend a large amount of time creating their Ebooks, they may want to appropriately be compensated.

The PLR cost to an Ebook may be considered a disadvantage to this unique business opportunity, but it can also be considered an advantage.  Ebook authors that charge more for their work typically have produced better content; and better content is easier to sell.

When it comes to making money online, we’re always looking for shortcuts. Not only because we have limited time, but because we’re competing with other marketers online, and in many cases, the first in – gets the majority of market share.

Anyway, if you’re looking for a popular niche Ebook to sell online (be it with resell rights or private label rights) check out my latest $5 product, called “Be Your Own Doctor”:

I’ve been invited to join a new web site, called PayBox.me, and I would like to hear your opinion about it.

Here’s what they promise:

“It’s free to sign up, and you will get $25 for opening a new account. PayBox will add up to $20 per day to your account for participating as we prepare to launch our new service… You also get $10 per person you refer to PayBox. You’ll help shape the development of the best payment system ever designed for the Internet. You could have hundreds or thousands of dollars in your account by the time we launch, without ever making a deposit!”
 
Sounds too good to be true, so is it a scam? 
 
Well, the first thing to understand about the Paybox statements above is that Paybox has its own currency… in other words; Paybox dollars are not US dollars. 
 
Paybox says it intends to develop a currency that will exchange with currencies worldwide. 
 
According to the PayBox.me terms of service:
 
“All account balances are held in PayBox currency. PayBox maintains a currency that is autonomous and independent of all nations and governments. The PayBox currency is denominated in dollars and cents (similar to the currency of the United States and over 20 other countries). The PayBox currency is currently in a closed system, and cannot be exchanged or spent. Our plans include person-to-person transactions, integration with merchants and shopping cart systems, and more. The value of our currency is estimated to be close to that of the U.S. dollar. As is the case with any currency, once the PayBox currency becomes openly exchangeable, its value as weighted against other world currencies can and will fluctuate due to forces beyond our control.”
 
You should think of it as Linden dollars in Second Life. You can use Linden money to buy stuff in Second Life, but not in the real world.

Here’s a screenshot of my account:

Remember, the 25 dollars you get as a sign up fee are not real 25 US dollars. The Paybox currency is not currently exchangeable for US dollars – or anything – so you can’t use them. If the service goes live in 2011, Paybox says that their currency will be in the international exchange system and users will be able to spend their dollars and make and accept payments online. 
 
You can’t tell for now what the value of your 25 dollar sign up fee may eventually be. It could, theoretically, be around 25 US dollars (not probably) or it could be 5 cents… If Paybox fails, the value will clearly be nil. So, you are warned
 
Having said that, Paybox is more likely to be a simple email address collecting venture than a scam. They promise you Paybox money for filling in online surveys. However, there’s always a chance that it could turn into something profitable. Nobody can tell right now. 
 
If you want to have a look for yourself and take a gamble that it may turn into a real business, click here. (Link opens in a new window)
 
Conclusion: PayBox asks aren’t enough to cause any damage to your privacy and PayBox hasn’t spammed me since I joined. Let me know what you think by leaving a comment below.
