Kindle Book Publishing - A Hot Money Making Opportunity

Do you know that Kindle book publishing is now a hot money making opportunity?

I got an interesting email from a long time buddy showing me a screenshot from Amazon of an eBook he created hitting the top 50 on the Kindle list (and made more than $10,000!) last month! Even more interesting is that he has never been a good writer himself! After a lot of pushing he finally admitted that he didn't write the book but paid a freelance writer to write for him. I wasn't able to find out the exact amount he had paid for the writing job. But he did say he had fully recovered his investment two weeks after uploaded his book to the Amazon e-book publishing platform!

Isn't this a real window of opportunity for making money?

According to statistics from the February 2011 Sales Report by Association of American Publishers, eBooks rank as #1 format among all trade categories. For the February results, eBooks have enjoyed triple-digit percentage growth, 202.3%, vs February 2010. Even Yahoo! eBooks reported that they are poised to have a 4x increase in eBook sales during the next 2 years. See video below:

And interestingly, Amazon announced that their Kindle book sales have finally eclipsed print books sales. Amazon now sells 105 electronic books for every 100 printed ones. This is a sign of the growing dominance of their Kindle digital reader, currently the company's best-selling electronic device. This will be a major shift for Amazon -- They have been selling printed books for more than 15 years vis-a-vis ebooks for less than four years.

This is the time to jump on the trend because there are 9,000,000 prints books on Amazon but only 950,000 eBooks. (That's a measly 1/10 the competition with tons of genres wide open for the taking.)

For those who love writing or who can write well, this is a HUGE opportunity to make money. Even if you cannot write or hate writing you can still jump on the bandwagon just like my friend did (outsource the writing part).

How to go about publishing an eBook at Amazon?

First thing first, go to Amazons Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP) and sign up for an account. It costs nothing.

If you plan to sell a lot of eBooks, it's advisable for you to figure out a way to upload your eBook files directly to the KDP platform, IF you're a do-it-yourself kind of person.

You can create your own book cover and format your ebook from a Microsoft Word file. There's a free software tool you can use to do the job - Mobipocket eBook Creator which allows you to create an ebook with a table of contents and then convert it to AZW, Amazon's proprietary Kindle ebook format. This is the process:

Microsoft Word file ==> HTML ==> MOBI

MOBI is the file output by Mobipocket, which is the SAME as AZW.

You can find out more from the Mobipocket official website.

A few words of caution:

Read the Kindle Publishing Guide thoroughly. Don't be tempted to use public domain titles (PLRs) in their original forms because Amazon is currently implementing a new standard policy to eliminate the problem caused by multiple, undifferentiated copies of public domain titles in their Kindle catalog. You don't want your name blacklisted. However, you may make use of any public domain material as a reference to come up with your own version of eBook - rewriting the content, changing the graphic and book title, etc.

Here are a couple of useful guides you can use to speed up your whole process of making money with Kindle Book Publishing:

How to Make Money Through Creating and Selling Information Products Online

It's a well known fact that the 'information business' is the
largest and most profitable online market in the world. And
is most likely to remain that way for many years to come.

That's why Apple can sell over a quarter of a million iPads in
just 24 hours... It's why Google performs over a quarter of a
billion searches each day...

...and it's all down to the mammoth numbers of people across
the world who go online to look for information that will solve
problems, provide solutions, and give answers that will make
their life better, easier or more efficient.

To them, it doesn't matter in what form the information is delivered
to them; as long as they get it - and get a result - FAST!

Is 'delivering' information to people something that YOU are already
involved in as a business?

If it is... then that's great news because what I'm about to reveal
could sky-rocket your revenue drastically.

Check out this video and sign up for the free report entitled:
'From $24.95 to $2,495,000 Selling Information Online'...

It has been devised by Tim Godfrey and Steve Clayton (the
creators of the Niche and Commission Blueprints) along with
the expertise of Kate Anderson who has been selling info
products for nearly ten years and has hundreds of them to her
name.

The report reveals how Tim went from making his first sale
of the first ebook he created, to putting together (with Steve)
a string of hugely successful info products, one of which
generated over 2.5 million dollars in revenue in only 36 hours!

People want information and more often than not are willing to
pay you massive sums of money for it, if you have the solution
to their problem or possess the knowledge that they seek.

It's an amazing opportunity for a number of reasons.

Firstly, creating these types of product (ebooks, videos, audio etc)
is a business that you can run from home - it requires no previous
experience and little or no money to start.

Secondly, the profit margins are ridiculously high and you could
get extremely rich very quickly, if you follow the correct formula.

I mean, there are 50 page dieting ebooks out there selling at $39
a piece that have amassed nearly 100,000 sales (do the math!)...
and there are numerous instances of these sales numbers in many
different markets.

Amazing isn't it.... and what's even more incredible is that in each
case, the actual writing of these ebooks was an action that the
product creator took just ONE time!

Then, the sales from this original effort continue forever, raking
in income, even if the creator died... (glum - but a fact) Of course,
the process can be replicated over and over again.

The trend is not going to stop either...

As I've said, the online information market is already a billion-
dollar industry and is set to steadily increase as more of the global
population gets online and also begins needing and paying for
information.

What does this mean?

Simply... more MONEY - for YOU!

*Even* if you created a 'mediocre' product, which by the way is
easy to do and could be outsourced and completed within the
space of 7 days, a FIVE-figure payday would NOT be out of the
equation.

This whole thing makes so much sense, yes?

I mean, most people, when they start trying to make money
online, begin with affiliate marketing as it is arguably the
fastest and easiest way to earn your first buck on the net.

...and whilst this is true... and even though millions of dollars
can be made from this business type, it does beg ONE question...

Why Be ONE Affiliate Among Thousands... When You Can
Have Thousands Of Affiliates Promoting For YOU?

As the Product Creator, affiliates will hammer YOUR sales page
with traffic and bring in revenue on autopilot... which is obviously
better than YOU being 1 out of a thousand affiliates trying to
hammer ANOTHER product owner's sales page with traffic.

Make sense? Hopefully it should.

Creating information products is possible to do with NO
experience at all, and can also be done alongside your affiliate
or ecommerce businesses, or indeed any other online venture
that you are currently pursuing.

As a result, I highly recommend you check out this video and
download the accompanying report that reveals more about
the exact step by step formula Tim, Steveand Kate have used
to make millions of dollars online selling information.

And don't forget to find out more about their upcoming and
highly anticipated step-by-step course called 'Info Prodigy'.

The Naked Truth Of Creating Digital Products

Take a look around you. It seems like the whole world is
trying to keep us down... Trying to hold us back from
achieving our dreams and fulfilling our deepest desires.

There's an old proverb that goes like this:

"If you want your dreams to come true, don't sleep."

What a load of crap!

One guy I know is breaking that mold. He's Cam Forbes...

...And his latest masterpiece "The Naked Truth."

The Naked Truth is very simple:

This is a product about creating products, if that makes sense.

The product is delivered digitally - through video, audio and
the web, to take you on an interactive journey from idea to
implementation.

If you have an idea, but you don't know how or where to get
started (to turn it into a product to sell online), The Naked
Truth will definitely help you.

If you don't have any ideas, use Cam's "idea farm" process
(and others) to figure out where to find them and focus your
energies.

If you're already marketing online, but you aren't selling
enough... you guessed it, The Naked Truth will help you
sell more.

Sounds like magic, right? Well it's not.

Let Cam show you the insanely killer process he uses to
create his products.

By breaking everything up into 4 simple steps he's streamlined
the whole "workflow" and it's going to change the game forever.

This is the same technique that he used to earn $269,276 online
by marketing his own products online.
