If you have written an eBook, you know the time and effort that goes in to taking the eBook from vision to reality. Once you publish the eBook, you may have high expectations about how it will sell, especially since it seems so many eBooks are doing so well right now. If your eBook is not selling, don’t despair! There are steps you can take to improve your sales.
Step One: Re-Read Your eBook
Go through your eBook and make sure you didn’t miss something or upload the wrong version. Make sure it is readable on several different eBook readers. If there’s nothing glaring that needs changed, go to step two. If there are revisions you need to make, take the time to make them and upload a new version of the eBook.
Step Two: Review Your Reviews
Do you have any eBook reviews? Are they all positive? If you have a negative review, it’s not the end of the world, but do at least consider what the reviewer has to say. If you don’t have any reviews, try to get people to review your eBook, even if you have to provide them with a copy.
Step Three: Redouble Your Marketing Efforts
You can’t simply write an eBook and expect it to sell. The critical component is marketing, and that means being visible and active on social media, having a website that offers a clear and easy way for people to buy the eBook, and as much media attention as you can get for the eBook.
