It's only been a month since I published my
book, but from what I've seen so far, my most important
tool is the ability to adjust my price for
promotions — one area
traditional publishing probably will never loosen control.
Topics include choosing the right
tools for
book creation and distribution, running your publishing business, author brand and platform, social media marketing and
traditional promotion, hybrid publishing with trusted partners, attracting an agent and a
traditional publishing deal, raising money for your
book, sales and distribution, metadata, SEO, and
book discovery in Amazon and all the online retailers, selling in brick - and - mortar bookstores and libraries, formatting and conversion, EPUB format and MOBI for Kindle and creating a full - color, fixed - layout
book for the new tablet readers, printing, mailing lists, websites, and blogs.
