Sell Your Book on Amazon.com
Brett Sampson tells all. This book is about how to get listed on Amazon, how to promote your book and increase sales. We borrow a quote from Sampson’s Sell Your Book on Amazon product page:
“Penny C. Sansevieri of Author Marketing Experts says, “Finally! A book that helps you demystify Amazon. If you have a book to sell, you simply must own Sell Your Book on Amazon.”
The marketing copy for this also claims to help you “beat Amazon at their own game”, and learn how to create “virtuous circles” (as opposed to vicious cycles, I’m guessing). While I’m no fan of breathless marketing hyperbole, I have to say that any book which helps a writer properly value their work and assign a reasonable price should be worth a read. Sell Your Book on Amazon has all the right chapters, and according to the author himself, this does NOT tell you how to get on the bestseller list. Instead, it offers strategies to help your book do well over the long term. If you’re a believer in Chris Anderson’s Long Tail concept, this book should appeal.
In short, not a bad way to spend $14.95 if you have a book ready for the world, or very nearly so.
Sell Your Book on Amazon sells for $14.95
Nice writing style. Looking forward to reading more from you.

Chris, thanks much for the kind words! Also–your post on article marketing is pretty interesting when I view it from the opposite direction–the writer trying to figure out how to pitch their services to a client who needs just that sort of work done…nice one!
