Try to match your unique eBook with a unique approach. You're in a market that is FLOODED with content on relationship advice, so you need to reach people in a way that your competitors are not. I don't know your industry well enough to offer specific examples, but don't be afraid to try new ideas

For Amazon, give the eBook to some pople in for free and in exchange ask them to write a review. You could partner up with some relationship blogs and ask them to post about it.

Start a new blog on relationships.

Guest post everywhere, get interviews, give interviews, do pod casting, "ask me" sessions, etc.

Post on your new blog every day. To find and develop your voice. Your writing style. Yourself.

Do this for 2 years and gain viewership at the same time.

Combine every post you've made into a single book and sell it to your then fanbase.

Or launch that book via Kickstarter or whatever else.

Then launch more books (splitting the contents of your original book, expanding on each content and make it as a book to sell). Sell them.

Most importantly: have your own voice instead; that's the only thing you never ever outsource.

It's the reason why we read from you, to feel from YOU. Not whoever you hired.

Come back in the summer of 2015 and tell us how you're a millionaire blogger/writer/entrepreneur/lover.

And please post pics of that hot model gf of yours.

Hey glaskon,

One of my friends recently launched a Kindle best-seller and his process was to take advantage of the "Download for Free" days that Amazon offers you. Advertise to your friends, to your email list if you have one, use facebook ads, whatever. The goal here is to get people to download it as many times as possible. If you're book provides VALUE, you'll get a lot of positive reviews from this.

Then, after the free download days are over, if you get enough of them, you'll hop on to the Kindle Bestseller List. You won't have made any money at this point, but when it hits that list and it goes onto the price, people will start to buy it because of all the reviews.

Then you'll have made it big with Kindle.

Other options like Clickbank, normal sales funnel via FB Ads and e-mail marketing would work too. Here's also a recent guide that I saw that I think you'll find useful: Cloud Blueprint (start at the 'Squeeze' video). This outlines how content IM works.

Best,

Maximus

I think you should get your ducks in a row.

Selling on clickbank with affiliates is one thing - you register through their platform, they approve it, they act as the payment processor, taking the money from the clients and distributing to affiliates, the rest to you, you need a download page to the direct product, etc...

Selling on Amazon is different, you register through their platform, they pay you 70% or 35% per their conditions, you can't add affiliates as there is no tracking system.

You can't do both unless you have 2 different ebooks and selling systems set up.

Idea that Bryan Kumar suggests is to link your book with current events, so if a celebrity is going through a messy break-up use a headline or pitch such as; this is the book that would have saved X from all the nasty headlines and heartache!

Phil Gosling teaches people to create a few print copies of your book and send them to authorities in your niche i.e. Dr. Phil, together with a pre-prepared list of comments that they can tick as their feedback on the book. Make it dead simple for them to reply. Then quote them on your sales page
