Amazon Kindle seems like the obvious choice when it comes to publishing your eBook, but don’t forget about Barnes and Noble’s NOOK store.

I have added this as part of my eBook distribution funnel and have been happy with the results so far.

It is easy to publish on B&N NOOK platform. All you have to do is sign up for a PubIt! account, enter your information, upload your eBook in Word doc format, and you are all set.

The only detail that I am a little put off by is the fact that you earn less of a royalty selling on NOOK than on Amazon Kindle.

On Kindle you earn a 70% royalty if you price your item between $2.99 and $9.99. On NOOK you only earn a 65% royalty for the same retail.

Why Barnes and Noble would do this is beyond my reasoning. You would think they would want to be competative with the largest eBook retailer out there, Amazon, but at this time they are keeping a extra 5% of your money.

But the fact remains, it is best to get your eBook out to as many outlets as possible. This will give you the best opportunity to earn the most money and get the greatest amount of exposure.

Formatting is very important so people can read your eBook with ease. I use the same formatting as with Amazon Kindle and it works and looks great!

Good formatting is fast and easy if you know what you are doing. If you need help formatting here is a complete resource to guide you through step by step.

When your are publishing your eBooks, the more outlets you have the better off you will be so don’t forget about Barnes and Noble’s NOOK store as you put together your publishing plans.

I am always looking for a faster, easier way to use content. Whether that be making videos, writing articles, whatever the case may be.

Well, this software blew me away! It converts articles into videos in minutes! Here is a video of me turning a blog post into a video in minutes. Give it a look.

This software does it all! And they best part is, it is only $29.95! No monthly fee, nothing! Just a one time cost and that is it.

Yesterday I received a call from a customer who asked why my eBook wasn’t available for download on an iPad.

I new the day was coming but it still caught me off guard. You see… you can’t just upload your eBook to and iTunes store and be done with it….no buddy. You have to convert your PDF files to ePub files and then upload them to iTunes.

If you have an iPad, iPod touch, or iPhone here are some easy instructions.

If you don’t have on of those then there are several other steps you must take and unless you know how to do these and use a Mac you are better off going with a “broker”.

Most “brokers” charge a one time setup fee to get your eHub to the correct specs, and then maybe a small annual fee to track and report sales and commissions. I found this to be the easiest route since I use a PC and you might find the same.

They will convert your PDF files to ePubs and do all the work for you but if you would like to save a little bit of money you can easily convert your PDF files to ePubs.

I found this free converter called Epub2Go. It is fast and free. After you have converted your files to ePubs then look up your favorite iTunes brokers and follow there lead.

That is what I am about to do. Have you had any requests for this?

I am trying to tie in the previous article and start with a question. Are you using video to market your products? If the answer is no then please give it another look.

Video used to be difficult and cumbersome. Heck, I still have an old VHS camcorder that sits in my office and collects dust. I could never get the proper cords or jacks to connect to the computer and download the video. And when I finally did, it cost me an arm and a leg. OLD, old, old!

Last year I bought a Flip Mino from Sam’s Club. It is a great little camera (they even make it in High Def……wooooo) and so easy to use I can even do it. No cables required, in fact, “flip” open the USB port from the side of the camera and start your upload. It is as simple as that. The software is contained in the camera and your video is on your computer ready to edit or upload to YouTube in minutes!

Now you have no excuse to not use video, plus, you can get one of these little buggers for $150 and maybe even less. I worthwhile investment for sure.

Now lets discuss how to make a video to sell your product or service. After hanging around this internet bizz awhile and getting on a bazillion mailing lists I learned one thing for sure……if your want to learn video….learn from the best! And the best is Andy Jenkins.

Andy is formerly from Stompernet fame and they all are worth over another bazillion dollars so they must know something. Andy is the video guys and he is into something really cool called The Video Boss. To introduce it he is giving away some great info on how to make a video “the right way”. When Andy talks about video, we all listen….lol

If you aren’t using video yet, you will be after you see this so give it a look and please drop me a note and tell me what is your biggest fear about video. I might be able to help you, and that is what it is all about, isn’t it?
