Digital Business Books is looking for business authors to promote!
It's not who YOU know. In the 21st century marketplace, it's WHO KNOWS YOU that counts. So who knows you?
Listen to the Q&A Session about Digital Business Books...
Does anyone outside of your network know who you are? Are your marketing efforts limited to people who already know you? How would you like to reach people eager for affordable business help?
If these questions apply to you, I offer aneasy, FREE solution for you.
It
covers all business categories in
all digital formats: audio, video and
ebook. Our
primary goal is to offer affordable, introductory
level business products that any
entrepreneur, at any stage of their
development, could afford and immediately
put into practical use. We encourage our authors to bundle their
business publication with other value-added
products, such as
- a bonus report or book,
- a limited-time offer for a free subscription
or membership,
- a complimentary initial consultation,
etc.
We also encourage authors to include
tips or information within their book that
will help the client save or make a greater
amount of money than the client will spend
on their purchase.
By doing so, clients receive a product
whose value far exceeds its price,
making it easier for the customer to feel
comfortable with their purchase.
It
is a one-stop shopping experience
for those needing business information. Our
primary goal is not only to provide a single
place where entrepreneurs can find
the business information they require,
but also do something they can't do at other
stores gain access to the authors
as well! By offering this service,
both the client and the author benefit.
The purchaser can pose questions to the
author, and the author can foster a relationship
with the client.Everyone wins!
For
every product released, we record an
interview with the author that is featured
in 2 weekly podcasts. Authors
will be interviewed about their field of
expertise and their product, especially
in relation to current business news and
technology. The interview will be featured
in Digital Business Books' own business-based
podcast,"Brain Storm!”, located at
http://www.BrainStorm-Podcast.com.
The interview will also be featured in Your
Voice, the podcast for Encouraging Audiobooks,
located at http://www.YourVoice-Podcast.com.
Excerpts
of ebooks, audio books or video curriculums
are podcasted and featured via ezine
every week. We
also like to podcast an excerpt of the
product (when possible) so potential
purchasers can try before they buy. This
can extend the product/author feature by
another week, as we follow up the interview
with an excerpt during the next week's podcast.
Product
descriptions, full-page sales copy, interviews
and business information are posted on
the site and via RSS feed. Authors
have the opportunity to say everything they
want to say about their product.Authors provide their own full-page
copy for the product description, along
with a smaller shopping cart description.They can include customer testimonials,
extended "promotional package” details,
and more.
In addition, the product description, interview
and author business information is posted
on the Digital Business Books Information
blog, driving more traffic both to the Digital
Business Books site, as well as the entrepreneur's
site.
Each
author is given their own Blog for
blogging, podcasting, and books reviews. Don't
have a blog yet?Don't worry!We will provide you with your
own RSS channel so you can blog and/or podcast
about your product.‹
You can include product reviews from
purchasers, and write related articles and
personal messages meant to enhance the purchaser's
learning experience. This is also the channel
by which the author's clients can gain easily
access to them and quickly begin a dialogue.
Each
author will have their own audio
testimonial line to collect testimonials
for their product. Each

recording testimonial line!
Every author will be able to request testimonials
from their present clients, as well as give
new clients the opportunity to share.These testimonials will be added
to the product blog, so potential clients
can hear more about you.
Authors
with multiple product listings will have
all of their products displayed under
their own name as an additional category. If
an author contributes more than one product,
then Digital Business Books will create
a separate category just for that author.
So clients can search for their favorite
entrepreneur and find all of their products
together in one place.
Every
participating author will receive a courtesy
10% discount on all publications in
the store. Just
because an author is an expert in one area
doesn't mean he's an expert in all areas.
That's why we offer our authors a discount
on all of our publications. Not only
can they share their expertise, but they
can benefit from the expertise of all of
the other authors in the store.
There
are no fees to list your product
for the first year. And any authors who
join in the first year are exempt from any
future setup fees. Administrative
fees will be waived for all authors participating
during the first year
and that means as long as they offer their
products with Digital Business Books.
Digital
Business Books splits commissions 50/50
on entry level products, but accepts
affiliate fees for higher priced products. If
you would like to promote your higher-end
products on the Digital Business Books site,
you don't have to worry about splitting
the commission. We realize that this is
one of the main ways you support yourself,
so we
will gladly accept affiliate fees in return
for the opportunity to market your higher
end products.
By
selling your product in digital, downloadable
format, there are no material costs.
Every sale is 100% profit. No
worries about having to order reprints or
further duplications for your products.
Digital format means that the product is
