Six Figure Author

Using Data to Sell Books

By: Chris Fox

Narrated by: Ryan Kennard Burke

Publisher's summary

Sell books the smart way.

Five years ago releasing a book as an indie author meant uploading it, then begging everyone you knew to buy it. That method simply doesn't work anymore. Fortunately, there's a better way.

Amazon has spent billions of dollars over the last decade building the world's best sales engine. They use machine learning to sell massive piles of books, and that engine is just waiting for you to tap into it. This is the book that will teach you how.

Ready to become a six-figure author? You'll learn:

• Why a sale isn't just a sale - who you sell to is more important than how many
• How to find your target audience
• How to train Amazon to sell for you

Great title

The information for me was valid. I am already on learning most of this elsewhere which helps me to know that the repetition is necessary. Some authors will find that daunting, and give up. I came across this book and decided to invest in myself, to just verify a few things I am being taught elsewhere, and helped me find some key things to not do that I was actually headed towards doing.
I was able to stop a process before being overwhelmed in spending.

My gut was right, Facebook ads, and Amazon ads is where to be.

My course doesn’t even touch Amazon ads, but I am gainfully employed teaching myself in the background waiting on the third book gw. Thank for assisting headed off a problem in a different genre.

The information was valuable for my level.
Funny, how some groups teach you just enough to get you to blow every dime and disintegrate under there teachings. Creating ways of teaching for extreme amounts of cash making you feel like you will have a minimum investment to build a book is not reality.

This author says that authors should work together.

I believe that, but when you’re all in the same genre, and some are much larger than you that gives them a lot of opportunities that can be concerning but not all are like this author.

I have already created groups my size, so as we all grow, we can help each other further, and that just validates everything he saying to me.
Great book!

Good experience

I enjoyed a lot of what Mr Fox has to say. The book is succinct and affordable. The price matches the value very well. It’s a great listen at 1.5 X, and I learned some great things about how to improve my marketing on Amazon.

This book made me a best seller

What made the experience of listening to Six Figure Author the most enjoyable?

The content was everything it promised and then some. It was written in an easy-to-digest, conversational manner. I felt as though I was sitting in a café with the author, listening to him explain his model for success.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

No. I stopped several time to take notes.

Any additional comments?

This is the real deal. I recommend this book HIGHLY.

great and practical advice

like all of his books straight to the point and very practical advice. highly recommend

Very Helpful

There are some very helpful tips in the book and I love that it is such a quick listen.

Much more value than I expected!

I resisted this book for a long time, as I don't like the idea of falling down the rabbit hole of data analysis to try and sell books.

But now I realize I should have read this a long time ago!

I was actually turned on to this book by a webinar with the author promoting his new advertising course in which he said the majority of the material in the course is covered in this book.

This book really was not what I expected it to be. Rather than a deep dive into data analysis, here we have a strong emphasis on fundamentals that offer a firm grounding to build on in your journey to becoming a full-time author.

I definitely found a number of choice nuggets, as well as a deep evolution in my understanding of how Amazon and the other retailers work.

Fantastic read

Another get book to this series. I've bought every single one of the series, both the book and audio. Audio is a great way to use my 45 minutes of commute both ways. The written copy makes a great reference.

Solid information

Narration was spot on. Great info. I would recommend this (and have!) to any writer looking to self publish.

Excellent!

I've listened to it twice now! Very good info. He doesn't sugar coat it with a pep talk but rather gives you practical steps to move yourself forward.

very helpful

There's so much helpful info for authors in here. The tips and advise make a lot of sense, and I know will help me along my author journey.

The narration had great pacing and was easy to listen to.
