Are you an author, artist, internet marketer or aspiring entrepreneur who would LOVE to build buzz for your brand? Do you have great ideas, but a very small audience of people paying attention? Are you sick and tired of following internet marketing gurus, or trying "gimmicks" that are doomed to disappoint? I want to share with you a very simple, evergreen content marketing strategy that can literally transform your brand, blog, business and bank account... and make it happen in under a week as well.

Curious but not yet convinced? Continue reading as we take a closer look below.

A quick case study

In early May, we did a quick case study experiment for an aspiring author who wanted to sell more client consultations, and hoped to use her Amazon books to build "buzz" for her brand, and business. She is a spiritual "teacher" and author in the "psychic" development space. (an area and expertise where I am personally agnostic)

Believe it or not, her first book was selling fairly well, and was making anywhere from 5-10 sales per day at 2.99 per book.

But, her primary goal, which was failing in a big way, was to leverage these books into sales of her "off Amazon" content, like coaching, courses she has created, and so forth.

Her hope was to use her books to drive a constant stream of new traffic to one specific course she had recently created, and was informally promoting in the book covered in the case study.

Here is what we did, and here are the results.

On May 1, she sold 8 books at 2.99. Her profit on these sales, was roughly 16. (70% of each sale)

A few days before the first of May, we started submitting her book to many other publishing platforms, and pricing the book at "0". (free)

We then notified Amazon that we found her book on other platforms for free, which sets off their "price match guarantee" program.

On the morning of May 2nd, the book was now free on Amazon as well. (which made her VERY nervous... as she was liking that $$15-20 a day income stream for self esteem!)

By the end of the day, her FREE book was downloaded 169 times.

On May 3rd, the book was downloaded 351 times.

In 48 hours, she had gone a high of about 10 books a day, to averaging 250 downloads a day. Her book was now #1 in multiple categories on Amazon as well, in the free section.

Now, she was making no money from these "purchases" as it was a free transaction.

But, we made a few simple modifications to promotional material in the book, adding several big banner ads for promoting another free course she had elsewhere. This generated about 75 clicks to the sign up page for her free course, and generated somewhere around 40 or 50 new students.

Out of those students, just from those 2 days, about 12 have ended up purchasing a premium coaching program she teaches on a video based learning platform.

As I write this, a month later, the book continues to generate anywhere from 50, to 400 downloads a day. It continues to be a major source of free traffic, and it continues to convert strangers into subscribers, and subscribers into sales.

All 100% free. It will work the very SAME for you, no gimmicks, no gadgets, and no goofy gurus required!

Extraordinary eBooks!

By Eunice Chege  |   Submitted On November 07, 2015

  

Over the last few years, the traditional way of acquiring and reading books has been overtaken by eBooks. Book lovers can now easily acquire eBooks while at the comfort of their homes, this is a fact that eBooks are now more economical to buy than the traditional hard covered books.

Most readers want to know the benefits of reading digitally rather than using physical books. They are also interested in knowing the difference between reading an eBook and having to read from physical books that are at times old and lack anything attractive from their physical appearance.

Some of the main reasons for buying eBooks compared to traditional books include;

A Clickable Table of Content

A reader doesn't have to sequentially move from page to page in order to read the material that one is highly interested in. This is boring, time-wasting and not even the brightest kid in the room will want to do this. With a Clickable table of contents, one is able to extract the specific material of interest with little or no fuss.

Cloud Syncing

In the event that a reader uses a tablet, laptop or any other e-reader most of the time one may read the same book on a number of devices. In this case, one can use cloud syncing to make the reading experience easy. You can bookmark pages as you read thus being able to pick up from the page that you were on.

Highlights and Annotations

It's easy for a reader to make highlights or notes without having to interfere with the neatness of the eBook. If it's a love quote that one intends to use as a pickup line, then one can easily highlight it. This helps one highlight major points that need some attention later on.

Dictionaries and Translations

At times, a reader may be unsure about some words or phrases that they come across when reading a book. With an eBook, you do not have to move from your reading zone and move around looking for a dictionary. All this is taken care of since most eBook readers are usually pre-loaded with dictionaries that a reader can use. You can also select and search the word online.

Adjustable Fonts

For those readers who have vision challenges, then eBooks are for you. Most physical books may make it hard for readers who cannot read without glasses since there is no simple way to increase their font. However, eBooks easily allow a reader to adjust the font size to one's personal preference.

Storage

Those who own physical books know the trouble that comes with always having to arrange them, protect them from damage and of course when they are too many, storage space becomes a big issue. However, with an eBook you can just save then in your electronic device like Personal Computer, Phone, any portable device or even on your email.

Access and Price

You do not have to visit a books store to acquire an eBook unlike physical books. All you need is to go online and buy one without having to move from your comfort zone. They are also cheaper than physical books since they are exempt of the fee that is involved in printing hard copies.

Books are good things to have, but with eBooks, they make an incredible version to own, you can use them anytime and at anyplace with lots of ease and without attracting anyone's attention. They are friendly to readers who are mostly discouraged by the physical size of books that they ought to read.

Happy reading!
