Greetings Warriors!

I've got a ebook ready for launch, regarding personal economy especially for young people.

Do you know any way to launch a ebook "the easy way"? Is there any Affiliate Networks out there or something similar for helping ebook launch?

I've got only bad experience in IM so I hope that there's someone out there who's got experience with successful ebook launch without doing it yourself? Is there any place to send your new ebook and paying commissions for sale without doing all the hard work with writing the book?

What's your experience?

    How young is your readership?

    Is the book for parents with young kids? For teenagers?

    Are there forums and groups on facebook or linkedin for personal economy for kids?

      Have you validated your book yet?

      If you have, and you have proof, the one of the fastest ways to sell e-books is to simply show your validation process to bloggers with large email lists.

      You can use pretty much any affiliate payment processing platform, it really doesn't matter, but if you can prove that you have validated the book then you get a higher percentage of people saying "yes" to promoting you.

        What is the best and smartest way to validate a new book?

      The book is for teenagers soon leaving home. Have only found forums for all ages.

        Just sell it on Kindle and see how it goes. It's the easiest and fastest way to make money with it and in 99% of the cases, this is where you'll make the most money anyways...


        Enroll it in KDP select, do a free promotion and you will quickly see if this book as potential or not. However, in the end it will come down to good keywords research and optimizing your book properly.

    Do you seriously think that it doesn't take work to release a book? Seriously?

    I dislike when people write books and expect them to sell like dimes without having an actual PLAN on how to do it.

    You need a plan -- either copy another person's plan or make up your own. It's NOT going to take a few minutes . And it IS going to take actual WORK.

    Writing a book isn't just about the writing part -- first comes writing then comes promotion then comes money if you plan correctly.

    A plan I use for books is :

    Determine your target buyer -- man women , income , personality , all those things. Find out who they are.

    Find a way to REACH that buyer . Are they on facebook? What about twitter? What about forums?

    Use your knowledge or income to go where that buyer is --- so on facebook pay for an ad. On forums buy a banner spot or get active in the forum itself.

    But seriously -- it all takes work. Success doesn't fall from a tree ( if only it did ! ) So expect it to take 3 months or more for you to actually see results from your hard work ; especially if you are selling it on kindle.

    GOOD LUCK!

    keep moving forward

      Sure I'll need a plan. But I was wondering if I could buy me to a easier way.

    Reading what you have said, I would think that this would probably work best on Kindle.
    I know a couple of people that have done pretty well out of Kindle, so certainly worth looking at.

    An easy way would be to invest $100 in 3 great websites and to launch your book at $0.99 instead of free.

    1. BuckBooks ($30)
    2. BooksButterfly ($25)
    3. BookSends ($30)
    4. BKnights ($10)

    I launched a book like that at $0.99 and left it at $0.99 (it had 8,000 words) and it made me $400+ in revenue since launched (it was launched on 20th November 2015).

    My experience with Kindle has a looong story. I uploaded over 30 books in almost 2 years on Amazon, 10 of which being bestsellers (nonfiction books).

    First of all, if you have an email list and money to invest, you should launch your book at $0.99. If not, use the free launch strategy (KDP Select free days).

    To "succeed" with your launch you need at least 5,000 free units (+5 days at $0.99 after free launch to start climbing the paid charts) or at least 200 paid units at $0.99 within 5 days.

    I launched more than 5 books that way and it was great. ROI is better, ranks are better, visibility is greater, and profits skyrocket. It depends on topic/niche, too.
