** Kindle Author? Get your books in print too... **
Is this you?
You've worked hard to write your book for Kindle or are writing one right now
or
You want to publish your book in print but don’t know how to do it or where to start
Do you:
You want to sell more books to more people, more often, for more money...
Yes !
If you really want to be seen as a serious author and publish a book in print you've probably read loads of books about writing books.
The information out there can be confusing and daunting and still leave that screaming question:
How Do I Get Published ?
Where to start, how to self-publish, how to format, how much will it cost and how much time will it take…and breathe !
Good News: Here is your solution.
Convert Your Kindle Book to CreateSpace Self-Publishing
gives all the information you need to be able to self-publish your book from start to finish.
It tells you:
- What is the CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform and why use it (...no upfront costs in paying for print runs)
- What are Trim Sizes, Margins, Gutters, Folios and Running Heads (....clarifies the industry speak)
- What settings you need for your margins, headers, footers and folios and how they look (...always a minefield)
- How to chose a font, the size font to use and the type (...something you never have to think about with a Kindle book)
- What size book to print and how to layout your book (...so that it looks as good as the big publishing houses)
- How to set the paragraphs, line spacings, page numbers, images (...so that it is professional)
- How to link your CreateSpace self-published book to your Amazon Kindle sales page (...the quickest way)
And once you have your print book
- How to sell it (...exactly as I do it)
- What is Kindle Matchbook (Amazon's new program)
In fact,
it covers everything your didn't need to think about when formatting and publishing your Kindle ebook.
One thing many Kindle authors struggle with is promoting their books.
For example, you may be at a networking event or launch, meet someone and tell them all about your book. They are really interested and say that they will download it once they are at their computer...
...But Do They?
You have a nagging doubt that they don't, and have no way of knowing.
What if you were in that same situation, and then pulled out a print book from your bag? You could sell it to them there and then. Can you really do this?
YES !
You can even order special-priced copies of your book from CreateSpace for your own sales and promotion.
Trust me, this does work (if you take the action).
I even sell my books through local small bookshops, my own websites and at my own events - you can too (if you have a printed version of your Kindle book !).
A print book builds your credibility, it builds your authority and sets you above the crowd. There are so many Kindle authors out there right now, and the number is increasing; you can really push forwards with your book available in all formats. Print books are the gold standard.
To Self-Publish a book on Amazon with CreateSpace costs you nothing but your time.
You have already written your book and know that it has an audience, now you are ready to capitalize on your sales.
As a business writer
your print book is your 'bullet proof business card'. If you have a printed version of your Kindle book people take you more seriously.
As a fiction writer
your print book is the way to extend your sales reach in new outlets
As an author
your print book is your way to stamp your authority as a serious and professional author in an overcrowded space
