In-Depth for Success

I loved all of the simple bit in-depth chapters on how to self publish. I wasnt clear on how to do this coming in and hoped that I'd understand, it interests me very much and now I really do! The narrator is quite pleasant to listen to and make the process very enjoyable! I feel ready to try and would definitely recommend

Fantastic resource for self publishers

I have been self-publishing for around a year now and I found this very book useful for a few different reasons.
1. Recap on all the things I've forgotten or gotten lazy with.
2. Tips and tricks I never knew like using Semrush when looking for keywords.
3. It re-ignited my enthusiasm for self-publishing and made me remember why this is one of the best online businesses.
It is great if you are a wannabe writer or you are in for purely money-making purposes. The narrator was very clear and had a nice voice.

Just what I needed!

I've been wanting to self-publish some books for a while, and I've tried to research a little on the side to figure out how to do it - but there's just so much to learn and I don't have enough time to pull together lots of information from different sources. I even signed up for a course on self-publishing, but it's too time-consuming to get through all the materials.

This book put it all together for me. I totally feel like I can do this from start to finish now. Well organized, thorough coverage of everything I needed to know, in a concise format so that I can just get right to the information I need.

I'm through looking for answers - this book has given me a complete checklist of everything I need to do; I've got my first book scheduled to write, format, and publish now. This book came along at the perfect time - just what I needed.

More learnings than I was expecting!

I’ve done a few online courses on book publishing and was confident in my knowledge. This book showed me that there was plenty I didn’t know! The bundle sales chapter was especially helpful and given me plenty of food for thought.

Great resource whether new to publishing or not

I self-publish books and do ok. I found this a great book, not only to remind myself of what I need to do, but I picked up some new tips. I really appreciated the actual tools that are used rather than just a generic ‘use an autoresponder". The marketing and review process described, from the review sites and so on, is spot-on and it reminded me to go back and get to work! This is a complete book for those looking to get started in publishing - nothing is missed - but it's also good for those, like me, who are already publishing. It’s the perfect book for the library and to ensure you are doing each step the way you need to - and great for those who need a little reminder :)

A Great "One Stop Shop" Resource

Keith's "Self Publishing Secrets" came an opportune time as I had started looking into publishing on KDP.

It offers a comprehensive "one-stop-shop" that covers all stages - from starting-out through to marketing and selling the final product. Throughout there are useful tips based on the experience of an already-established KDP author.

The Chapters break down the information into bite-sized chunks. The topics are brigaded such that one can fast-forward or skip those with which one is already familiar or knowledgeable. The tone and pace make for an easy read/listen.

I found the content readily digestible and had plenty of time to make notes. It is peppered with pragmatic recommendations - which mitigate the risks of making mistakes and "traps" that one could otherwise fall into.

Based on the research into KDP publishing I had started doing - this is an enormous time saver.

Awesome!!

I love this book! It has everything you need to publish your own book on Amazon. You don't need a publishing house or lots of money.

The author has talked about everything from getting the book written, publishing and even about getting reviews for your book in order to sell more copies and make lots of money!!

Great book, definitely recommend it to anyone interested in publishing their own books.
