It works if you’re willing to work it!!!

I initially purchased this as a Kindle. And completely went through the process to manuscript. Gundi is so great at giving the exact step by step details, which I appreciate. I’ve also purchased this book in paperback and I now have the audio. While I didn’t finish my process…I know that I will publish and having this book is the perfect read through and then refer back guide for me!

The ebook or physical book might be a better investment

In theory Ms Gabrielles strategies are very likely to work in making you a best-selling author on Amazon. I haven’t tested them out in reality however. Nonetheless, This book is very helpful in organizing and planning out the strategy in becoming a best-selling author.

The only problem with the audiobook is that you would have to take copious notes in order to benefit from the information. For that reason I would recommend getting either the e-book or the physical book version of this title.

One more small criticism of the book is that they were many references to PDFs which I could not find via the audiobook. I believe they would be much more readily accessible in the EBook or Physical version. Along those lines it is also possible that the links that are mentioned in the book are out of date. But this is kind of a trivial matter and easily overcome with a little computer savvy it is also very likely that my failure to make the links work was operator error and not a function of Ms Gabrielle’s writing.

Overall if you were interested in writing a nonfiction best seller you could do a whole lot worse than reading this book before you got started. If that is your ambition, I strongly recommend this book.

My life saver in self-publishing!

I have first read this book as an ebook but I just had to have the audiobook as well because this book has been really helpful to me when I first launched my own book on Kindle. I always go back to reread the ideas and improve my publishing skills until I get the results that I wanted, just like what was stated in this book.

If you ever wanted to publish your book "the right way", don't do it without listening/reading to this meaty book to help you launch your book into an Amazon best-seller.

Plus, you will be able to get support from a private group (only access is to purchase this) as you make your way into your self-publishing success.

Lots of Pluses and One Minus

This is a valuable book as the author has massive experience to share on the subject - one needs to take notes and listen to it more than once to grasp it all. But there is one negative, in my opinion, which is the author reads her own book and while her English is excellent, her German accent detracts from the listener’s experience; consequently, I felt as tough her personal style of speaking is a bit like she’s talking to children and not adults. I am sure she doesn’t mean to but that is what came across in the audio, at least in my opinion. Gundi may want to consider hiring a professional reader for her next book - perhaps someone with a British accent?

A must-read if you want to write a great book

… and become a successful writer.
I highly recommend this book to anyone looking to make a difference with their writing and also become a bestselling author.
While giving you the perfect blend of solid information in a clear and friendly voice, this book will teach you how to plan your success from the first step to the last. You will find out how to plan your book, build your brand and a loyal following even before you actually start putting down your first words on paper. Gundi goes to the root of a writer's success or failure, showing you how to serve your customers in the best way possible, define and address their problem, craft a compelling title your audience cannot resist, promote your book, and how to use Amazon SEO to sell more books.

Great addition to the Kindle version

I loved the action steps that are given each chapter that make this an obtainable goal for me to reach in 30 days.

Best most practical book I’ve read about book marketing!

Gundi Gabrielle is the Queen of book marketing. I was so impressed by this book and will go on to read everything she has published. She knows her stuff and I look forward to implementing everything she recommends.

Lots of actionable tips and tricks

A lot of books have been written on this subject. Some of the authors claim their mastery but when you check on the bestseller lists, their books are nowhere to be found. The author of this book talks the talk and walks the walk, as she can consistently be found on the bestseller charts for all the topics she writes about.
This book delivers lots of actionable steps to take you from unpublished author to bestselling author with down-to-earth honest advice and do's and do not's of the trade.
I have published 34 books of my own but I learned a bunch of new things that I have started applying to future titles. Highly recommended.

Highly Recommend!

The information is organized and the step by step directions are so helpful. Not filled with the usual fluff that you get in similar books but with useful instructions and tips. Gundi tells you what you need to know in an easy to understand and follow format just like her other books. The accompanying pdf's are very helpful and I'm glad that she included them with the audiobook. I will be using this as my go to resource during the entire process. This is definitely a book to read before you publish.

Love this book.

I love this audiobook. I have always wanted to write a book but never knew where to start. This book provides you with actionable steps that you can accomplish each week to help you achieve your goal of writing a Kindle Book. I found the length to be perfect with no fluff added.
