Below is an interview with my friend, and self publishing expert, Greg Perry.

Greg is one of the most published authors on earth—having written over 80 books about computers, managing rental properties, eBay and government intrusion. He’s also published dozens of articles on target shooting, self defense and politics.

So he’s no dummy when it comes to writing, publishing and making money with books.

Some of the secrets in this info-packed, 72-minute interview include:

  • Why you’ve probably already written your first book… without even knowing it!
  • The ugly little secret about “how to write” courses… that keeps writers broke and frustrated.
  • The #1 mistake people make when marketing their self published books!
  • Why you don’t have to be a good “writer” to publish and sell a lot of books.
  • How to get your books listed and selling on amazon.com within just a couple weeks!
  • How to sell scads of your self published books… without paying for any advertising!
  • Why “nasty” feedback about your writing is usually a GOOD thing.
  • The best (and cheapest) place to test the demand for your self published books.
  • How to multiply the number of books you sell… by raising your price!
  • Why your book title is NOT the most important part of your book when selling it! (And what is.)
  • How to turn emails you’ve sent to people years ago into cold, hard cash!
  • How to use your writing to get paid consulting gigs.

By the way, although this interview is mostly about self published books, you can easily apply much of it to any info-product.

I put the audios in my car and listen while driving today, it is awesome!

I think Greg really share about what his passion and the things that really interest him a lot.

I like so much about self publishing that Greg revealed of how he actually did that and the insider secrets of it.

The person that walks the talk!

Great job, Ben!

Hi Ben-

Thank you for the great interview with Greg Perry! I listen while I drive and walk.
All of his information was so valuable and helpful.

I am very close to self-publishing my first children’s book and this information you provided for free will help me greatly. I plan on checking out the other resources Greg mentioned also. Personally, I think it is so exciting to be a part of the advantages with self publishing and the changing technology. I’m a firm believer in small business owners and this just opens up the field so beautifully.

Thank you so much for offering this, I sincerely appreciate it.

Barb, I’m really glad it helped you out.

I think Greg is tops, too. And I know he gets a lot of satisfaction knowing he’s helping people like you and me get things rolling.

Ben
