"In order to compete, you need to build an audience of people who like and support your books." ~ Steve ScottIn some other books I have read recently it says that pricing a book at $2.99 is better for sales than pricing a book above $10. (Although my recent experience is that books sell better at 99 cents than 2.99)This book deals more with the questions of whether or not you should list your book for .99 or $0. There is also apparently a way to get amazon to list your book totally for free. I've seen some authors do this but was not sure how they were doing it. This book tells the secret.Steve Scott also addresses the question a lot of new authors are asking. Is KDP Select the way to go? Steve Scott discusses the advantages and disadvantages of giving your books away for free. I would say from my brief experience with KDP that it gives you more exposure. I feel ecstatic that I've given away over 550 books. It is very exciting to think that someone out there is reading your work. So I think the author and I agree that KDP Select is the way to go at first. When he talks about a "flood of downloads" he means it. People are hungry for free books!!! I know because I'm downloading everyone else's books too.This book will also give you some advice about how to create an email list although I would have liked a lot more detail. So overall I found this book helpful. If you are in a quandary about what to do with pricing this gives some ideas.~The Rebecca Review
