Making 1000 Per Month With Kindle Ebooks!
https//www.warriorplus.com/w/a/qhykm

As soon as anyone thinks about writing an ebook,
almost immediately they think about selling it
onAmazon. I wrote a post about selling ebooks on
Amazon a few months ago, and concluded that
itwasnt worth it because Amazon takes too much
of a commission and limits the amount that
youcan sell the book for.
However, there are lots of ways to write ebooks,
and I keep hearing about people out there
making some good money writing ebooks and selling
them exclusively on Amazon. Im always
willing to admit that I dont know everything, so
I got in touch with someone who might know
moreabout this to find out their thoughts.
Eric Dase, made over 1,000 in April from his
Amazon ebooks, and just released his own ebookon
how to write and market Amazon ebooks. You can
check his site out at ShuckaBuck.Q Tell me a
bit about what lead you to start publishing
ebooks on Amazon. You started withnormal
internet marketing, right?
Eric I did start with normal internet marketing
where I would create a website and get that
siteranked for keywords in Google. I started
doing that back in 2008 and I have had some
goodsuccess with it.
I got started selling ebooks on Amazon when a
friend of mine sent me a link to a webinar that
aguy was holding where he was showing people how
he was making 30,000 per month sellingkindle
books. This was back in December of 2011. I
listened in on the webinar and found it
veryintriguing. I didnt buy the product he was
selling because it was 997, but I did do my
ownresearch and found quite a few other people
who were having some success with kindle
books.After some searching and talking with some
other people who have published to kindle, I
found outthat it doesnt take much to get a book
making money. You just need a good title and
cover andbooks will sell.
I also figured out that the most popular books on
Amazon were a series. For example, the
HungerGames series. Not only does creating a
series build a brand around your books, but each
bookhelps to sell your other books. It works
well in fiction or non-fiction too.
In January of this year I started my first series
in non-fiction and it did well, and is still
selling welltoday. I then went on to another
series of books.
Q What is your overall business strategy?
Eric My business strategy is pretty simple
create websites, books, and other products that
will
help people. When I first started in internet
marketing I was just looking to make money. I
would gofind a product or service to promote and
find a way to get traffic to my website. Now, I
do my bestto create a brand. Whether that be
with kindle eBooks, my websites, or web
applications andapps.
If you can create something that people get value
from and solves a problem, the money willcome.
Q How many ebooks do you have for sale on Amazon
right now? Care toshare the niches?
Eric I currently have 8 live books on Amazon,
and have 3 sitting on my computer that I am
formatting and getting ready to publish soon. I
am in 3 niches right now Web Design,
Businessand Investing, and Cooking.
2
I know nothing about cooking so I had to find
some a writer that had experience in that
area.Cooking books do really well on Amazon.
Q How do you choose a topic/niche for your
ebooks?
Eric I use the kindle best sellers list for most
of my research. I drill down into a category of
interestto make sure of two things
1. Books are selling.
2. I can get into the best seller list easily.
If books are selling and you get into the best
seller list easily, all you have to do is figure
out a
target market you want to sell to. I usually look
at the top selling books for that, it gives you a
goodindication of what people are already
looking for and buying.
Q Do you write your books yourself? If so, do
you only choose niches that you are
knowledgeableabout? Or do you outsource the
writing sometimes?
Eric So far, I have written 1 book myself. That
book I have a some knowledge in and I knew it
would only take me a couple days to write. The
other 7 (or should I say 10 since I have 3 other
onmy computer), were all written by my writers
who have the expertise and knowledge in the
area.Q Where do you find the writers that write
your books? Have you had any difficulty finding
goodwriters?
I have found all my writers using The Content
Authority. Its best to contact support once you
knowwhat you want written. Their customer
support is very good at finding the right writer
who has theknowledge and expertise for the
content of your book.
You can also find some really good writers at
iFreelance.com I use that site over odesk or
elancebecause there is no cost and there are
mostly US-based writers there. Its very important
to takethe time and find the writer than can
create a quality product the way you want it.Q
How long are your ebooks? What price(s) do you
sell them for?
Eric All my books are between 5,000 and 15,000
words. The length of the books really dependson
what you are writing about. If the books is very
niche specific, it may only need to be
between5,000 and 7,000 words.
I sell my books between 2.99 and 5.99 each.
Amazon has two pricing options for kindle books
1. .99 to 200 for the 35 royalty
2. 2.99 to 9.99 for the 70 royalty
Q How much time do you spend each week working
on your ebooks business?
Eric For the past 2 months I have been creating
quite a few books, so I would take a guess at
around 30 hours per week. 30 hours may seem like
a lot, but Im doing a lot of research lately
andtesting out pricing, descriptions, titles,
and covers to see what affects sales the
most.The actually planning and publishing of the
books dont take up a lot of time. On average, I
wouldsay I spend 3-4 hours per book. Thats from
research to publishing.
Q Do you do the formatting and publishing for
your ebooks yourself? Or do you use
aservice/company for that?
Eric I do all the formatting and publishing of
my books. I use Microsoft Word to format the
booksand I upload them to Amazon as .doc files.
Its pretty simple and doesnt take much time. I
usuallyjust add headings and images (if needed),
then a table of contents. From formatting to
publishingto Amazon probably takes me an hour,
and thats after the writing and editing has been
done.Q What sort of marketing, if any, do you
do for your books?
Eric I have only used Amazons free promotion for
my books. No PPC, PPV, Banner Ads, SEO,Guest
Postingnothing but Amazon.
Q Do you think your business plan is sustainable
long term? How do you think it compares
tochasing Google traffic in terms of longevity?
Eric Thats a good question. Its really hard to
tell since I have only have about 5 months of
3
experience selling kindle books. I want to say
its sustainable long term because the kindle
deviceand other devices like it are very popular
and have been selling well for a few years now. I
dontsee the ebook industry failing any time
soon.
Comparing the ebook business plan to chasing
Google traffic? Man, Im split on it, I guess.
Googlehas been very wild lately and I dont like
the search traffic game too much anymore. If you
areactively chasing Google traffic, then that
may be a failure long term, but if you are
building a brandand creating products that
people need and want, you shouldnt have to worry
about search trafficfrom Google.
Short answer yes, its sustainable. Compared to
Google traffic pretty equal.Q Any tips for
someone who wants to try this out?
Eric Do your research and create compelling
titles and covers. After all the testing I have
done sofar, the two biggest factors in selling
kindle ebooks are your titles and covers. Its
also important todo your own testing because
every niche is different.

After getting Erics thoughts on selling Kindle
ebooks and given Googles recent craziness
Imstarting to see how selling ebooks like this
could work into a bigger business plan. If you
have aflagship ebook that sells for 20 or more,
I dont see how youre going to increase revenue
byputting that ebook on Amazon.
But what about making a smaller ebook to sell for
a buck or two (or even give away for free)?
Thatcould not only increase your revenue, but
serve as an additional source of traffic.
Definitelysomething to think about.
