Marketing Guidebook

Most authors don't want to rely on others, so take the chance of success into your own hands by using the Self- Publishing Service offered by you. Included here are some practical marketing tips that will help you to gain potential readers that could lead to the success of your eBook sales!

THE BASICS

We all need to start somewhere and having a solid understanding of what needs to be done is key to becoming a successful author.

These next several chapters pertain to the very basic necessities of what you should consider when creating an eBook and getting noticed as an Indie Author.

A Good Cover

Did you know that books with professionally designed covers sell twice as much as books with poor quality covers? We were shocked, but it’s the truth!

We've all heard the saying “Don't judge a book by its cover”, but don’t fool yourself! A book can have amazing content, but if the cover is unappealing, nobody will take the time to open it.

This applies to printed books as well as eBooks: A stunning cover page might be the one reason why a book catches a reader's attention.

There are tons of books available, so indie books tend to get lost in the shuffle; especially if their appearance is not appealing to potential readers. To be honest, we have to admit that books are often judged by their covers.

Of course, you can't let this get you down. Sure, not every author is an enthusiastic artist. Most authors would rather live in a world of words, than deal with images and design. As you've probably already guessed, we spent some time thinking about this, and we've come to the realization that nobody should be left to deal with this problem alone

There are various groups that discuss the topic “cover design”, but we would like to specifically recommend the "Art Writers” group. There, you will find workshops with instructions to make your own covers AND meet other users who offer their assistance with cover design.

DON'T FORGET: It is extremely important to observe copyright laws at all times! But don’t fear: you can even get advice on this topic from group members. If you lack the confidence or skill to design a cover yourself, ask the group. Our members are great at offering assistance.
