#PD15 Webinar: "How To Sell Books By the Truckload on Amazon" with Penny C. Sansevieri

Presenter:

Penny C. Sansevieri

Presentation title: 

How To Sell Books By the Truckload on Amazon

Presentation outline:

Amazon is a great place to sell books, but most authors don’t realize that Amazon has an internal sales machine that will actually help you market your book, for free, if you trigger it. It’s called their internal algorithm and, not that dissimilar from ranking on Google, once Amazon’s algorithm kicks in, you could see a boatload of free promotion come your way from Amazon.
