      INTRODUCTION

      There is a lot of information in this book on how to publish an eBook successfully, well over 25,000 words of theory and practical guidance that now needs to be implemented.

      As an author of over 20 successfully selling eBooks online, I have poured everything I know in this series and you have everything you need to succeed with profiting from eBooks. How much you earn and how much you succeed is now all up to you. But the beauty of it is that you are 100% in control of your own destiny. You can choose how well you want to do from here on.

      And if you are wondering whether you will succeed, I’d say do not worry about it. Do your best and see what happens. As I often say, focus on excellence (in this case execution) and success is inevitably going to follow. Many people have it the other way around as they continue to chase success and never get there because they forget to focus on what’s important. If you start to worry about the outcome right now, you might never get yourself to start. The Internet is very forgiving. It allows us to make quick changes as we move along so you will have multiple opportunities to continuously tweak and optimize your initiative as you move along with the process.

      Don’t be too anxious about the results either. Success doesn’t happen overnight. But when it does, it tends to come in bunches like a waterfall. To give you some perspective, I wasn’t about to make even one sale of my first eBook copy until 6 months into this process. I procrastinated with compiling the sales page and then marketing my eBook. But when I sold that first copy, everything started to snowball after that.

      Also understand that what you can accomplish with an eBook may just be a start to something much bigger. An eBook is a platform, or a stepping-stone for many to get to their end destination, may that be a consulting practice, speaking engagements, political agenda, a big contract with a big name publisher or anything else. The possibilities are endless. So while you may think you have only learned how to publish an eBook, you have really learned how to effectively position yourself to achieve a potentially much, much bigger objective.

      You can also convert your eBook to an audio book or a video series, instantly repurposing content into new avenues which you can also sell online. The beauty of doing that is that once your information product is created, you can repeatedly benefit from it over time.

      While publishing an eBook is one of the best ways to accomplish multiple purposes, such as building
