User Ratings and Reviews

5 Stars The book that got me in the business
It’s not like we need any more folks selling books on Amazon–it’s hard enough to make money in this racket as it is. But if you’re dead set on making a go–and you’re serious about it–buy this book. It’s the one I turned to over a year ago and I owe the author a debt of gratitude. I sell on the side in my spare time, and $6,000 gross later I’m happy with my little book business. Did I net anywhere near that? No, so you have to ask yourself if it’s worth it. But I pick up books on my down time, when I wouldn’t be doing much anyway. I drop the girls off at ballet, hit my sources, and hopefully pick up $100+ worth of books in an hour’s time. Not bad. But…you need to be willing to get down and dirty to find your stock, and I’m not sure it’s as genteel a business as the author might make it out be. I also have difficulty trying to picture myself with a 1-year old on my arm while I juggle books and my Scout Pal–I’m glad I started when the kids were older. But I’m probably underestimating a lot of determined moms out there. Really, though, this book is for anyone, not just stay-at-home mothers. But don’t bother if you’re not committed. You have to be smart and willing to work like the devil. Not only that but, in the words of a pro–”Most books are worth zero.” Think hard on that before you dive in, but if you do, dive in with this book.

4 Stars Good & useful information.
I simply will not give 5 stars to something that is really not a book but only a printed notebook. However, I have to note, that I did not find a lot of editing mistakes, so that was a plus.

The information the author presents is very worthwhile and worth knowing.

If this had been me, I would not have shared some of the things she did.

But it is all easy to figure out on your own anyway.

Some people who like to earn lots of money from selling books on Amazon, use a figure 2 times what she says her friend uses.

I will also say that I also learned from what she said she did not know how to do, as I figured there would be less competition in those particular markets.

There are all sorts of ways to make money selling books online, and what this author does is a small part of it with lots and lots of competition where I live.

5 Stars Great guide for anyone.
I generally liked this guide it is very easy to read and contains all of the information needed to get started This book would work not just for stay at home moms but anyone really who is interested in working from home.

4 Stars Great Book!
I thought this was a great book. It is a simple read. It has a lot of detailed information in it, but it is not boring. I learned a lot from this book and would recommend it to anyone.

5 Stars Great for New Booksellers
I read this book when I first started selling books on amazon and I had so many questions. This book answered them all in a simple, direct manner. I have read just about every book that comes out on the subject, and this by far is the most informative and well written. Who cares about the cheap plastic binding? It’s the information inside that is important and in this regard, this book is a winner!
