Amy Collins, President of New Shelves Books, has insight about the new Amazon changes. CreateSpace is dissipating and Kindle Direct Publishing has become its primary publishing site. There are a few dynamics that authors need to keep in mind. In the clip below, Collins explains what you should do if you started in CreateSpace and now need to put your work into KDP. She also explains the new, exciting tools that KDP offers. For example, KDP now offers Amazon Marketing Services (AMS). This allows you to create a solid marketing campaign and improve your searchability. This can bump a book from page 20 to page 1 or 2 on an Amazon search, which is the difference between turning a profit or not. Listen to the clip below as Collins explains the basics of Amazon publishing platforms and discover how you can use Amazon tools!
