Event Description


PHONE Seminar with a Kindle Direct Publishing Representative

This month we’re doing something different. Rather than hold our usual seminar on a Saturday in Culver City, we are joining PALA in a non-location-based seminar on a Tuesday evening.

TUESDAY, April 19, 2016 7:00 p.m. to 8:30 p.m.

(NOTE: This is not our usual Saturday seminar date, time or format!)

Amazon offers many programs and opportunities for authors and publishers involving print books, e-books, and audio books as well as sales tracking tools and promotional and marketing opportunities.

<strong>NEAL THOMPSON, <em>Director of Author and Publishing Relations at Amazon</em></strong><em>,</em> will be covering these topics:<b>
– the benefits of self-publishing
– digital books (KDP)
– print books (CreateSpace)
– audio books (ACX)
– real-time sales tracking
– free promotional tools
– tips on how to improve your presence on Amazon</b>

He’ll also have time to answer emailed questions too. Although participants will listen via phone, you will not be able to speak directly over the phone during the seminar. Questions must be emailed (see the YOUR QUESTIONS section below).
