Selling my CB products on Amazon..

by Intrepreneur
7 replies
I've done the deed and checked out what Amazon has to offer when it comes to my ebooks.

There are a lot of books on there, published books, that are pretty expensive and I think my book can compete with them.

I may not place my ebook and videos on CB now that I see I could do it all on Amazon.

Would I be at fault to sell on Amazon and CB at the same time?

    No way man, the books I'm looking at all cost over $23.. I can compete with that.

    I was thinking I could rename it and sell it on Amazon as a download. (rename because I want to also sell on CB)

    Or I could up the ante and take it that little bit further and go to a publisher.

    Man, I'm confused.

    I wouldn't think there's any harm on testing both Amazon and CB out.

    Personally, If I found a product that goes for the same price on Amazon that it goes for on CB (or landing page), I would buy it from Amazon. Amazon has build more consumer trust than CB has. There has even been times where I've bought products from Amazon (even though I found it cheaper somewhere else) just because I felt it was safer. Trust is huge in my book.

    So go for it! And come back on here to tell us how it sells!

    P.S.
    I noticed you quit smoking. Good for you! It's been over 3 years for me. The first couple of weeks are rough, but it gets so much easier once the nicotine devil's out of your system.

      Excellent advice, I'm just off the phone to Amazon the sellers department isn't open at the minute, I just want to clarify a few things with them before I go ahead with it all.

      I got my legal discalimer delivered today so now my product is ready for the world, I want to do it the right way.. I really need my knowledge to pay off as it's all I've got thus far.

    Quick question though...

    Is Amazon only letting people sell downloadable books as Kindle books?

    If so, might it be better (or at least another opeion) to set up a printable on demand book and sell that through Amazon?

    I bought a book about using NLP scripts in sales messages and in hypnosis last week from Amazon. It appears to be a POD book.

    You could also just add Amazon as a payment option on your website.

    Amazon is a whole different world I think you will profit from. Get your ISBN for $40 or so and get the barcode as well. Then use an on-demand printer.

    The thing about amazon is 'respect'. It will open up a whole new world of opportunities as a specialist in your field. Think about it...everyone knows about Seth Godin in the offline world.
