No testimonials, no sales stats.

What does one do if they're creating a new product and the track record for it is 0. It entails a technique I developed for myself lo these many years ago and events prompted me to turn it into an ebook.

OK, so let me ask another question since I am where I am...basically terrible at marketing....it occured to me, to give my sales copy credibility, include a photo of my Berkeley Doctorate degree on it. Both the ebook and degree are in the same arena. Does doing it that way make sense to any of you?

Ask any questions if you have them since i cant give a whole overview on what sells and what doesnt.

Btw what is your doctorate for?

OK, I'll link to an image of it would you put something like 'too see my doctorate degree click here'...I can't think of anything more enticing at the moment but I sure am open to suggestions. It's the last piece to complete my sales page.

My degree is in Psychology with a major in Behavioral Neuroscience. Any other Berkeley Alumni here?

OK, here's another question, what's the optimum amount of pages for an ebook? I know that may be hard to answer without knowing what the ebook is about but I promised myself I wasn't going to talk about its content until the frakking book was actually finished. I'm thinking somewhere around 20 pages would be OK. What do you think?
