I've been going down dead-end alleys trying to figure out how to market on amazon.  All of what I've read taught me snippets  of the things a writer needs to know, but you never have a workable overall strategy.  Some of it is also contradictory ("verifed reviews help your ranking" vs. "they don't matter;"  "load up your description with keywords" vs. "amazon will catch them and they won't make any difference").  Flailing around with this is like trying to punch a jellyfish.  You can do it all day long, but the fish is still hanging in there and smiling but you're no further ahead.This is the reason Rob's book is so extraordinary.  It's easy to read, laid out in a logical progression and it gives the individual steps you need to do.  For those of us who aren't computer savvy, it's murder when the instructions leave out steps that I guess they figure you just "know."  This book makes no such assumptions and makes implementing the strategies easy.He also briefly explains the what's and why's so the reader has a real understanding of why he's doing something.  With this instruction a strategy comes together and makes sense.  For example, I didn't know anything about Free Book Promotions or Kindle Countdown Deals and their places in a promotion campaign.  Kindle Publishing Treasure Map is worth the investment just for these explanations and the ways to use them.if you want to successfully sell on Kindle you really need to buy this book!
