Using Multiple Ebook Formats To Build Your Brand

* Amazon.com's e-bookstore distributes titles that can be read with the Microsoft Reader. * BarnesAndNoble.com carries titles for the Microsoft Reader, RCA REB 1100, and the Glassbook Reader. * eBookCity utilizes their proprietary Versaware system. * Booklocker's titles are mainly in Acrobat, with a few HTML titles. How can you use this to your advantage? By adapting your ebook to each of these formats you stand a better chance of influencing potential readers to purchase your title. Remember, while a reader may not visit your site on a regular basis, they will typically visit your colleagues, competitors, or industry sites. Get your title featured in all potential sales venues - no matter what format the ebook is sold in - and you'll reach them more frequently. Cost to transform each book is minimal, because you only have to convert a title to a specific format one time. There are no physical distribution costs. And what you reap in overall exposure, as well as additional sales can be tremendous.
