Unlike most other blogging methods you’ll find out there, this method is a bit unique in that it does not utilize any affiliate links whatsoever, nor does it utilize an email list. My only request is that you go through this audiobook not with eyes of skepticism or prejudice, but rather with an open mind. The strategies this audiobook is going to lay on you are based on real-world data-driven analytics, and the results are going to likely be better than what you would have expected.

Marketing a book is difficult for most authors. It takes an incredible lot of time, and often for no measurable results in sales. Some of you may have spent hours, days, weeks, even months, writing blogs, getting active on Facebook and Twitter in order to promote your book. Then you look at your sales figures for the last weeks or months, and your heart sinks. Why isn't this working? In this audiobook I am going to show you the secrets many of the more successful authors use to help promote and sell their books on Amazon.

Are you tired of "how to publish books" that are full of fluff and no real information? I was, too. I determined to jump in and learn for myself - and that's exactly what I did. I started with my first book, How to Work from Home and Make Money, and then quickly published three more. I was looking for the topic of my fifth book when it hit me - why not share what I've learned with the people who still haven't made the leap and published their own book?

Words. We use them all the time, every day, mostly without giving them much thought at all. We take for granted that they’re here at our disposal whenever we need them. But if you’ve ever wished you could communicate more effectively, words are the place to start. It’s incumbent upon you to choose the best words to accomplish your goals, because how you choose to communicate influences—well, everything! The power of communication shapes our professional goals, our relationships, and our lives—so the words we choose to use carry a great deal of power.

You must read this if you want to self publish!
I am a beginner author and by listening to this audible book I have learned so many time and money saving tips!
It would take someone years and much trial and error anxiety to even learn half.
Besides I am way more motivated to push forward and accomplish publishing my first book soon!😎
Thank you MK Williams
