OK I took my book and have now today just gotten the pdf format of my published book and was thinking of selling it now as an ebook. I have the site and the resources to do this. There are a few things I wanted to ask here and see if I could get some feedback.
First off the book was published about 6 years ago, about 2 years after I wrote it so it was 8 years ago when I actually penned it. The book is about hunting and growing up in Maine. It's 200 pages long.
Some questions I have are:
1) How should I determine pricing
2) Would it be worth advertising online or just through word of mouth...
3) Maybe I could offer this as an affiliate program. Provide a flat rate per sale to those who sell my book?
4) We plan to update some of the information in the book since it is outdated. We want to offer the original copy but then possibly offer a revised version. Not sure how that would go over. I don't see people really buying 2 copies just to get the revision. It's not like I am Stephen King or anything.
Anyway, is there anyone who has turned their own book into an ebook and tried selling it online? How did it go?
