12. Do this, not that … Do’s Don’ts Start with raw data: text and photos. Avoid starting from PDFs or anything with rich layout. Curate a collection of 5-10 similar stories. Don’t cram together 100 unrelated stories. Market your eBook on your Web site and in social media. Don’t expect a service or retailer to market for you.

Notas do Editor
I’m Dan Pacheco, and I’m the founder of BookBrewer.
BookBrewer makes it easy to create and sell eBooks. You put your content into our system, pay a setup fee, and it's then for sale on the Kindle, iPad, iPhone, and Android tablets.
Here you can see how easy BookBrewer is to use – almost like WordPress for eBooks. -- Upload cover art -- Copy and paste from Word -- Upload photos into text -- Then organize content into chapters -- If you’re a blogger, you can even import your posts in a few clicks -- Push a button and pay, and your content is turned into an ePub file and sent to all the big sellers.
The eBook market is heating up. The Assoc of American Publishers reports sales growing 300% per year, and they expect it to be a $6B market by 2012.
I’ve seen this before when I ran personal home page services at AOL and 10 million people published pages in just 3 years. It’s not long before people think of “books” first as digital products, just like they do now with music.
Compared to the competition, we’re in a nice middle ground. Some charge more, but they focus more on Print on Demand, with eBooks as an afterthought. Others charge less or nothing, but they have no publishing tools. We offer a complete end to end eBook solution for a fair price.
We’re also upselling authors on things like copy editing and cover designs. One quarter of our users say they would pay $1,000 or more for a bundle of such services. Based on this, we project $10Min revenue from 50,000K titles, and $40M from 200,000 (like Blurb).
