Is it a good idea to post entire contents of ebook for sale?
My wife has written a great self help book for women. It's a small paperback book that she wrote about 5 years ago. Unfortunately we have had so many other projects that her book always seems to get the back burner .
We did put it on her site about 6 months ago as both an ebook and as a nook book. We have seen very little activity.
We asked half a dozen people in her target market and they told us they would much rather read a real book, not an ebook or nook nook.
We have discussed several times a few options:
1. Hire a dedicated book agent to get the book out.
2. Put more add energy into marketing the book online until it is successful.
3. Copy the entire contents of the book (in an organized fashion) and make money from adsense and start to pick up affiliates.
My question is how well would option #3 work and overall is this a good approach to kick start a really good book into some sales? Obviously this would mean we don't sell the ebook anymore, since it is 100% free with the contents as the contents of a website.
Your ideas are appreciated.
