Many publishers believe the key to profitability is to publish more books. However, the real key is to sell more books. Your backlist can become a gold mine of opportunity where content - not copyright date - is king. Brian will show you how to sell more books in large, non-returnable quantities.

At the end of this session and when using what was learned, you will be able to:

• Sell ebooks, pbooks, vbooks and abooks in ways your never thought possible to people you may never have known existed.
• Find out why niche publishing can be the best way to increase your sales, revenue and profits.
• Discover how to convert your nonfiction book into a money-making venture.
• Plan to market fiction to more buyers, more profitably.
• Create a new business model for exploiting today’s multiple marketplaces.
• Get the best promotion, sales, and distribution tips to sell more books and make more money in special markets.
