You can post up videos for free and share them with ease.Show Purina’s Animal All Stars as an excellent example : http://animalvideos.yahoo.com/
  4. This is to educate your clients on the potential power of viral ebook marketing. Talk about how they can easily get published on Amazon. It will be even more powerful if you’ve actually published books on Amazon before, that way you can show them proof..99% of the time, the clients will ask you if you provide a service to do this for them, because they are too busy with their own businesses. They will gladly pay you a minimum of $500 to get a book ghostwritten and published on Amazon.
