As we have seen over the last few podcast episodes, publishing a book is an excellent way to build authority and position yourself as a go-to expert in your niche.

We have seen that it’s possible to build a business around a book. So, it’s possible to monetize and make a full-time income by being an author.

But, who said you only have to publish a single book? Why not several?

Whether you’re planning on publishing an ebook or many, you’re going to get plenty of value from today’s episode!

Joining us is best-selling author, blogger and podcaster Steve Scott. He’s best known for being a successful writer who, by publishing several books a year, has “cracked the code” of successful kindle publishing and knows what it takes to be at the top of Amazon’s charts.

In our conversation, Steve shares how he manages to stay on top of kindle publishing by releasing various books each year, the costs of publishing an ebook and the common mistakes self-publishing authors make.

Steve also gives us insight on email marketing for indie authors, what you should go for between author brand and author name, and how to leverage sales events to increase lagging book sales.

It’s time to start your journey toward successful kindle publishing!
