Note from Denise: Amazon has reported that they are selling 1 million Kindles per week. You have an unprecedented opportunity to get your content in front of millions of people in your target audience. Think you're not an author? Think again. You probably have ebooks and reports sitting on your hard drive that can easily be converted to the Kindle format and published in minutes. Check out the ebooks I offer to get an idea of the type of content you can sell for Kindle readers. At the end of this article by Kathleen Gage, there's an invitation to attend a free webinar on how to make your Kindle ebook a bestseller. You don't want to miss this!

Using Your Kindle Book To Gain Market Reach

Looking for a new way to get in front of potential book buyers? Try your hand at publishing a Kindle book. It's one of the easiest ways to get your material published…fast!
 
I couldn't believe how simple the process was from the very first attempt.
 
What's great is you don't need an ISBN to publish your Kindle version book. You can publish just about anything including: 
  • eBooks 
  • Reports
  • Articles
  • Blogs
  • Books
  • Transcripts
The fact is, if you can write it you can publish in Kindle.

 
There are a few reasons you would publish in Kindle. One, to be published. Two, to make money. Three, to build market reach and credibility. Four, to build your opt in list.
 
If you've been dreaming of being a published author and are not yet there, Kindle is a great first step. There is virtually nothing easier.
 
You don't have to publish a full length book. Nope. You can publish information you have on your computer. It's really that simple. So no more excuses.
 
Although you can make money with Kindle you likely won't get rich. If getting rich is your main motivator you may want to rethink why you are publishing with Kindle. However, Kindle books can lead to other, more lucrative opportunities.
 
One of the best reasons to publish a Kindle book is for market reach and credibility. Yet, you can't simply get your Kindle book up and expect sales to flood in. Any author who wants to get the most traction for your published works needs to be very proactive with marketing and promotions. There's no way around this.
 
The more you market the more visibility you get. The more visibility the more sales. The more sales the more likely readers are to visit your blog and/or website. When you optimize your sites you are prepared for visitors with an opt-in opportunity.
 
Ignore setting your site up so visitors can opt-in for something and you miss lots of great opportunities. Make sure your site is ready for the traffic you generate.
 
As you can see Kindle books serve many purposes, the most important of which is to create high quality information for your readers. Create high quality information and you set yourself up for greater success.

    Denise, A terrific post and fabulous opportunity. Thanks for helping to make this happen. I’ve signed up and look forward to the session. ~Dawn

    Denise,
    Great post. This strategy works! I currently have only one book on Kindle but will have two more out by February. It’s a great way to reach an entirely new market. I have a question though. There’s some debate over whether you should have an “author” website. I have Powered by Intuition, which is the site I’m known for. I can’t see directing traffic to another site, even it it’s under my name. What do you think?

    That is a great guest article by Kathleen and it’s a great reminder that you can re-purpose content  to create a book such as transcribing a webinar you deliver or a teleseminar.

    I know you have done that very successfully too Denise and I love the way that you have encouraged people to ‘sample’ your work through the special offers you have run on Kindle.

    I’ve been publishing on Kindle for about 18 months. When I realized I could convert my existing ebooks and reports to the Kindle format, I knew I could not afford to ignore the power of being visible on Amazon.  As you say, one probably won’t get rich but hey, a dollar is a dollar and I get a payment every month from sales of my reports on Amazon.  Looking forward to the webinar on how to make Kindle ebooks bestsellers!
