The First Ten Steps - Ten proven steps to build a solid foundation for your ebook using free social networking
by International Bestselling Independent Fantasy Author M. R. Mathias
OK.... Your ebook is published. You did some tweets about it and you posted on Facebook. Now what? The First Ten Steps lays out several PROVEN methods for using free social media sites to get your ebook in front of eager readers. But more than that, after a few months of following the easy 10-15 minute a day steps, you will have built a solid foundation for your pen name and created the one thing new authors have to have: NAME RECOGNITION.
You will learn how to use and maximize time on sites such as Goodreads.com, Wattpad, and Twitter to immediately draw readers to your work.
You will learn how to use twitter #hash tags effectively, and how to grow and nurture your following of READERS; you will also find out how to put your new eBook in front of tens of thousands of people.
Contests, Blog hosting, Do’s and Don’ts, all from someone that sold over 50k eBooks since July 2010 when he uploaded his first eBook.
YES! I SAID JULY, 2010!
M. R. Mathias put 4 full length novels and two short stories in the Amazon top 100 of their genre since July 2010, all with no previous name recognition what-so-ever. (As of now, June 2011, those books are still at the top of the charts!)
If you have a computer and internet, The First Ten Steps, can be completed without spending any money beyond the cost of this book, but just in case you find you have a hit, the steps also touch on buying advertising space on blogs, magazines, and pay per click systems.
Quit wondering why you are not getting the sales your book deserves. Fifteen minutes a day will garner the results needed to build a rock solid foundation, and a notable (not unknown) presence in the self published on line world.
What are you waiting for?
*Note – Though this book briefly touches on uploading an eBook and cover art for presentation, it is not about publishing an eBook.
This book is intended to show what to do after that process has been achieved. It is a book about selling your work and creating a solid reader friendly foundation so that you can make real money from your craft.
