Self-Publish Your Ebooks Through
ClickBank
by: Tim Coulter
There was a time when ebook publishing was seen as a reluctant half-measure
for authors who had failed to impress the mainstream press. But as on-screen
reading technology improves and the buying public becomes aware of the
instant gratification and easy navigation that downloaded ebooks can provide,
their popularity is growing and so too is their market.
But despite the burgeoning ebook revolution, many writers have still
not woken up to the profitability of self-publishing, nor the ease with
which a turnkey ecommerce system, like ClickBank, can help them to get
their work out to the buying public.
There are some compelling reasons to self-publish your work in ebook
format. Here are just a few of the most attractive:
-
There are no agents or publishers to convince
-
There are no distributors, retailers or other middlemen to take a cut
-
You'll have no deadlines to meet nor editors to satisfy
-
There are no printing, warehousing or distribution costs
-
Your manuscript could be selling within days or weeks of completion
-
You get to keep up to 100% of the cover price of every sale!
To publish a book in digital format and sell it via ClickBank is well within
the grasp of most aspiring writers, even those with limited financial resources
and little or no online marketing experience. It's just a question of choosing
the right tools for the job and following the tried-and-tested methods
used by the thousands of successful ClickBank sellers.
At its simplest, a self-published ebook can be created using a word
processor and packaged using any one of the various free or low-cost ebook
compilers. To sell it online requires nothing more than a rudimentary 2-page
website, with ClickBank's ecommerce system hooked in to provide round-the-clock
automated payment processing. Although modest, this setup can soon become
a 24/7 hands-free money machine, pulling in thousands of dollars for a
single title, while leaving the author free to work on his next creation.
Once bitten by the ClickBank bug, the most adventurous self-publishers
usually embellish their sites, building more effective marketing infrastructures
and further automating their prospecting and post-sales processes. To aid
them in their quest for ever-greater profits, a whole micro-industry has
sprung up around ClickBank, offering all manner of software accessories
that squeeze more out of the basic ClickBank concept.
But there is one final aspect of ClickBank that sets it apart from any
other online payment service - its integrated affiliate program. With 150,000
affiliate members, ClickBank boasts one of the most active affiliate networks
on the Internet. As a ClickBank seller, you can tap directly into this
priceless resource, harnessing the power of affiliate marketing to multiply
your web exposure and boost your sales, without the daily chores of being
an active web marketer.
In short, the simplicity of ClickBank, coupled with the power of affiliate
marketing makes self publishing a viable and profitable alternative for
any author struggling to get a book to market. Why not give it a try?
