I just think that it’s a shame that the United States isn’t as forward thinking as some other countries (such as Canada) which provide them for free. Bowker’s goal seems to be to keep small players priced out of the market, which is why there is such a deep discount on higher quantities of ISBN…
The answer depends on what you mean by lost. If you used it previously on a book other than the one that you are currently working on then you can’t re-use it. If you were given a free one from somewhere such as KDP Print or Lulu or Smashwords, then you can retrieve it by…
If you plan to create Kindle versions of your Ultimate Business Card book, then selling your own book as PLR probably isn’t a good idea as they are unlikely to approve the books and will remove any that are already there. For KDP Print, you can create Private Label versions of the books with minimal…
Hiring a virtual assistent is a big step in growing your business…it can be a lot of work, it can be a large expense, but it can also catapult your business to the next level once you remove yourself as a bottleneck. I used to have a full time transcriptionist in the Philippines but wasn’t overly…
It doesn’t matter if the book is created by KDP Print or not. If the book is amateurish and poorly constructed, it’s going to get bad reviews. If it’s a quality book, then people won’t even notice, it’ll just be the way that it is. Unless you smack people in the face with the “this…
That is completely market-driven and has nothing to do with where the book is printed or who published it. There is a lot that comes into play, including but not limited to… what books usually go for in a specific niche the quality of the information in the book the marketing channels behind the book…
I don’t have any experience there; the way that I would go about it would be to find an agent in your niche that has contacts that would be interested in printing your book, including in overseas markets. If you are making a lot of digital sales, you could try approaching publishing companies yourself as…
This is another question where the real answer is going to be niche-specific. Just because people in one niche prefer buying kindle books doesn’t mean that even the same person wouldn’t prefer a physical book in another niche. That said, some broad generalities that I’ve noticed in the niches I’ve been in and that I suspect hold relatively true for most: It’s easier…
I reached out to customer support at KDP Print, so here’s their official stance: You can not transfer a title from one KDP Print account to another. You can retire a title in one account and set it up in another account – this will create a new title on Amazon. Technically, you can not use the same ISBN…
I don’t have any research as I don’t do much in the children’s marketplace, I mostly work with business customers. One of my clients has a children’s book, which I did a kindle and epub conversion for, but I wasn’t involved in the writing of the book at all. For me personally, I tend to…
