Here’s the FREE STUFF You’ll Also Love
We get to play with a lot of great tools in this industry . We also get to test excellent programs software, and ‘test drive’ outstanding services by other related service providers.
Here’s where we get to share the gems we know are worth knowing about. Disclaimer – some of these we have affiliate links with so yes, a few we do get a small commission from if you use these. But please also rest assured, we would not be recommending these without having real faith in them too.
One of the best tools we use, and continue to be impressed with is KDP Rocket!
In fact, we LOVE all the other tools you’ll find on Kindlepreneur too, and know that Dave Chesson has really nailed it in terms of creating usable tools for Authors. Including a calculator for working out how to see how many books your competitors need to sell to be in the top positions, and a QR code generator for adding your book cover to a QR code for your readers to scan.
There’s also a fantastic tool called Book Description Generator you can use FREE to make sure your Amazon listing looks sshmick!
These are all the things you need to be aware of as an author, to help promote you and your books.
‘The Profitable Speaker’ is one of the best Podcasts available for Authors and Speakers
To get real clarity on many of these areas you need to understand, listen to Brad Hauck’s wisdom and insights – you can also access his programs and we highly recommend them to our clients.
