It\u2019s become the most powerful book-selling machine ever invented. Consider these mind-blowing statistics:<\/p>\n If these facts don\u2019t get your attention, allow me to make things very clear:<\/p>\n Amazon sells more books than anyone else.<\/em><\/p>\n If you want to sell more books, then you must<\/em><\/p>\n learn how to sell books on Amazon.<\/em><\/p>\n You may not be able to control Amazon\u2019s dominance over the publishing industry. But, it\u2019s possible to use Amazon\u2019s power to your advantage if you use these three little-known secrets.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n Authors constantly wonder who their readers are. Unfortunately, Amazon doesn\u2019t share customer contact information, so you never know who actually buys your books.<\/p>\n However, there is a secret way to identify your target audience.<\/p>\n Go to your book\u2019s detail page on Amazon and look at the section called “Customers Also Bought\u2026” This information reveals titles and authors that are similar to you and your book.<\/p>\n How is this data helpful? It explains where to direct your advertising efforts on Amazon<\/a>, Facebook, and BookBub.<\/p>\n For instance, if you see “Author X” frequently displayed on your “Customers Also Bought” list, then you should advertise to people who like Author X.<\/p>\n Why? Because Amazon verified that people who like Author X also like your books. This information can help save a lot of time and money determining the best way to maximize your advertising budget.<\/p>\n Amazon attracts more book readers than any other resource on the planet. Did you know you can convert those readers into email subscribers for free?<\/p>\n It’s possible when you use Amazon’s Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP) service to set up a permanently free e-book that drives readers to your author email list. I call this free resource a “Bait Book,” because it serves as appealing \u201cbait\u201d that attracts new readers to you.<\/p>\n Here\u2019s how it works:<\/p>\n Once you set up your Bait Book, it will run nonstop on Amazon\u2019s website to help build your email list while you write your next book.<\/p>\n The best part is that you can create everything for free. Plus, you can purchase inexpensive Amazon ads to help promote your Bait Book and make sure the right type of reader sees it.<\/p>\n Language is the power of the book sale.<\/p>\n If your book\u2019s marketing description looks bland on Amazon\u2019s website, your sales will be stunted. But, if your marketing copy sizzles, your sales can skyrocket. It\u2019s imperative, then, to make your book appear as enticing as possible to shoppers on Amazon.<\/p>\n While many authors believe that description is locked into place forever, they’re wrong.<\/p>\n Whether you\u2019re a traditionally-published author who is disappointed with the marketing text your publisher used or you self-published with a company that set up your page, you have more control than you think.<\/p>\n Using this third secret, you can make important changes to your book\u2019s marketing copy when you want to change your description or you receive a new endorsement, win an industry award, or hit a bestseller list.<\/p>\n Here\u2019s that third secret: Amazon offers a hidden \u201cback door\u201d into its website that lets authors update their book\u2019s marketing text whenever they desire.<\/p>\n All you have to do is set up a free Author Central Account<\/a>. Once you\u2019ve done that, you gain full control over your marketing text, editorial reviews, and author bio. This puts the power in your hands to make sure shoppers see the best version of your book on Amazon.<\/p>\n I hope you will take advantage of these three secrets to sell more books on Amazon. There are several other ways to increase your sales at the world\u2019s largest retailer, too.<\/p>\n Please join Build Book Buzz\u2019s Sandra Beckwith and me to learn more in a free webinar<\/strong><\/a> on Wednesday, May 6, 2020 at 2 pm ET<\/strong> (calculate for your time zone).
