Free Webinar on How to Sell Thousands of Books

BAIPA member David Colin Carr found a free webinar by Steve Harrison and Amy Collins on how to sell thousands of books that he has shared:

You’re invited to a special free web training on …

Passive income. It’s what every author is looking for.

We all love the idea of “write it once … and sell it thousands (millions?) of times.”

And of course every author wants to become an Amazon bestseller and get their book into bookstores.

But this Tuesday, August 9th I’m going to blow the lid off the hidden profit center for selling massive amounts of books that almost all authors miss…

Libraries.

Almost 40% of Americans have been to a library in the last month. But only 5% have been to a bookstore. So if it’s me looking to sell books (or e-books) … I’m going to where the avid book readers and buyers are going … and that’s libraries.

As bookstores go out of business, libraries keep growing. Today there are far more libraries than bookstores in the U.S.

And library budgets are going up. Budgets for many libraries are over $800,000 per year. And in cities serving populations over 500,000, library budgets average $4,437,000 annually. So year after year, they get millions of dollars of fresh cash to buy more books and e-books.

But that’s just the tip of the iceberg of why libraries are a hidden source of revenue for authors.

This Tuesday I’m hosting a Webinar where my very special guest will be Amy Collins. Amy has probably helped more authors sell more books and e-books to libraries than anyone alive. She’s going to show you how to sell thousands of books and e-books to libraries so you build a passive income for years to come.

• The step-by-step process librarians go through when purchasing books (not one author in a thousand know this).
