In the last ten years, we've seen incredible growth in digital book sales (ebook, print-on-demand, and streaming audio) throughout the developed English language markets of USA, UK, Canada, and Australia. But in the next 10 years, the huge growth markets will be those international markets that are just getting started. As Jeff Bezos likes to say, it's still “Day 1” when it comes to the digital revolution – and indie authors can ride the wave with a focus on publishing to global, digital, and mobile-compatible platforms as I discuss today with Kinga Jentetics from PublishDrive. Exciting times indeed! In the intro, I talk about KDP Print and Createspace merging – I moved my books over last month and it wasn't a big deal. Quite the relief to have one main service to use now, and I muse about how the mainstream use of Amazon ads for print books might claw a larger % of print sales for indie authors in the next year. Plus, the continued woes at Barnes and Noble [New Republic], and how to sell more books on Kobo Writing Life through access to the Kobo promotional tab, using pre-orders, global sales, NetGalley promotions, Overdrive, and Kobo Plus.  This podcast is sponsored by Kobo Writing Life, which helps authors self-publish and reach readers in global markets through the Kobo eco-system.
