I met Steve at  https://www.facebook.com/groups/357112331027292/ (Pat's First Kindle Book) closed Facebook group. The group already has over 8k members and Steve has been one of the most active and helpful guys in there. Steve Scott has  built a reliable Kindle publishing business. Now he is making full time income with his Kindle books. He works on his business for about 15-20 hours per week and has over 25 full length Kindle books in the market. In this interview we talk about how he has made it and what works best for Steve. What he shares is pretty straightforward and easy to implement.

Food for Thought
Before even writing the first book put together a lead magnet. Have at least one platform - blog, podcast or youtube channel. The best way to market a book besides the e mail list is to write another book. Have at least one editor to look over your stuff. If you're getting started and you have no platform KDP Select is the best way to go. It offers a lot to new authors.

Steve's strategy points

Put out a good quality book

Market to your e mail list

Launch at 99 cents

Produce books regularly

create human connections, relationships, network and talk to people on 1 on 1 basis
