The
Kindle Kash ebook was
released July 2011, and unlike many other “how to earn money with Kindle” ebooks, it is an absolute
complete guide on the process of publishing and earning with
Kindle.
Kindle Kash is written
by Nick Daws (author of Quick Cash Writing and Write Any Book in 29 Days, and co-author of the
extremely popular book for writers, The Wealthy
Writer), and many other books.
Daws is a prolific writer and has more books published than I thought possible. (He’s said to be the most prolific author in the UK.)
Kindle Kash is 139 pages long, and broken down into easy-to-read
sections. But it’s not one of those books filled with fluff. Like all
of Daws books, it’s filled with useful and relevant information.
In the book,
Daws reveals everything and anything you will ever need to know about how to plan, write, edit,
publish, and subsequently, promote your money-making Kindle ebook, whether it’s fiction or non-fiction you're
writing.
As with all his courses Daws has provided clear and easy to follow instructions. If you follow
his practical advice and step-by-step information, you will soon have your own Kindle
ebook selling online via the Amazon Kindle Store and making money
for you.
Here are just some of the
topics covered in the book:
The number one
self-publishing site to consider – and it isn’t Amazon (You’ll find the answer on page 9)
The easiest way to expand
your reach to readers (This is also on page 9)
The top ten
bestselling topics on Kindle right now (See page 13 for this one)
How to Price your ebook
(Check the end of page 77 for this one)
How to Get reviews (This
is on page 92)
Getting your book into
print (This one's on page 125)
You’ll also find
out:

‘publisher’
Whether to write
Fiction, Non-Fiction, or both
How to determine what
you should write about
Free services that will

In addition to the full
program, six extremely relevant bonuses are offered to those purchasing Kindle Kash.

does occasionally remove bonuses after a short period, so if you want them, act now.

Kindle
Kash is an excellent book, and is suitable
for both internet marketers and writers. As you may already be aware, there
are loads of programs available on the subject of how to write for Kindle. But there are often hundreds,
if not thousands of dollars.
Frankly, I don't believe they're
worth the money.
Also, many
of those programs are telling marketers to use PLR to write their books for Kindle.
Did you
know that Amazon has now realised this is going on? They've rejected hundreds of books written with PLR,
and are now on the look out for books written in this fashion.
Don't let
that happen to you.
Know you
know, you have a head start on people who have been sucked into doing this.
Okay, onto
the review.
Things
I didn’t like:
There was
very little I didn’t like, but there were a couple of things.
The first
thing I didn’t like was the table of contents – it’s not clickable.
What that means in real terms is if I want to go to a specific section I either have to scroll through
everything or do a search to locate it.
I’m always
banging on about this with this publisher, but they continue to do it. <sigh>
I’m pretty
sure they do it to stop people jumping to particular sections without reading the entire book.
As I’ve
said before in my reviews of books from this publisher, they needs to understand that some people simply
want to bypass parts of the book. (Yep, that’s usually me!)
The other
thing I found was the pdf page numbers and the actual book page numbers didn’t match. This could be because I’m in Australia and we have a different page format to
most other countries, but I’m not sure. (So maybe you should just
disregard this altogether!!)
Both of
these are pretty minor, and don’t detract from the content provided, but I felt I needed to tell you about
them.
Things
I liked:
Because
there is so much in this book, there’s no way I could include everything, so I've only reviewed a few
sections.
Kindle
Kash is incredibly comprehensive, and I can’t recall seeing a book on Kindle that includes so much.
There are
loads of books out there – mostly written by so-called Gurus trying to make a quick buck – that tell people they
will be raking in thousands of dollars (from their self published Kindle ebook) from the get-go.
Daws
doesn’t do that. He is an experienced writer, a realist, and he knows
that it’s rare to become an overnight success.
As I said
before, this book is comprehensive. In addition to providing precise information about publishing on
Kindle, Daws gives great insights about writing your book.
This is
something I’ve not seen before in a book such as this one, so I was pleasantly surprised.
He talks
briefly about cover images, and how to format them for the Kindle, and also provides information about the Title
Page for your Kindle ebook.
Daws
discusses blurbs, and also gives tips on how to write them. He talks about the rights you are handing over
to Amazon, and discusses Amazon’s marketing policies on allowing potential buyers to read portions of your
ebook.
Something
Daws goes into that I’ve never before seen in a book about Kindle, is promoting your book.
Sure, you
can go on blogs and promote. You can run contests to promote, and you
can take out paid advertising too. I’ve done them all.
But
the methods Daws talks about in this ‘how to publish a book on Kindle’ manual, are methods I’ve never seen
before.
Better
still, they’re free except for a bit of your time.
As with
all of Daws previous books, Kindle Kash explains everything in step-by-step details, including screenshots.
Even if you’re brand-new to publishing you can create your own Kindle book and start earning commissions from
Amazon.
Questions I’ve been asked via
email:
Q) As you
offered a discount for Kindle Kash, does that mean I don’t get the bonuses shown on the sales page?
A)
Absolutely not! All bonuses shown on the sales page are applicable to
everyone. The fact I’ve been able to negotiate a discount does not
detract anything from the offer. (Except some dollars!)
Q) Is
Kindle Kash suitable for both fiction and non-fiction writers?
A) Yes,
it’s suitable for both, but the book doesn't tell you how to write a piece of fiction. It certainly goes into
all other aspects of publishing your fiction - and non-fiction - on Kindle.
I would
suggest if you need help with your fiction writing, you check out some of my books on writing, or some of Daws other books, such as Novel in a Month, or Write any book in Under 28 Days.
Just
to be clear, Kindle
Kash goes into the technical aspects of publishing
on Kindle (in an easy, straight forward way), but not the technical aspects of writing
fiction.
Summary:
This brief
overview by no means covers the information provided in Kindle
Kash. There is so much to this book, and you’ll
learn a great new skill that can be translated into an income.
As with
any course you buy, the main thing is to take action on what
you learn. Don’t pay out money for this (or any other) course unless
you intend to follow through.
Once
you’ve written your first book and it’s up and running, it’s time to start your next. (It’s called ‘rinse and
repeat’.)
Soon
you’ll have a following of fans who can’t wait for your next book to be released.
