You should check out these companys with the better Business Bureau. before sending them any money. You could also report the company to your local law inforcement agency. It won't get you back your money. but it might help someone else.

Agree somewhat with the first post. \n\nYou have to be very, very careful in the self-publishing market, especially with vanity presses. Do you know anyone who has self-published? Ask them for detailed, inside information. I did that after I learned my uncle knew a professor who had self-published his first book. If not, investigate the companies thoroughly.\n\nYes, you pay everything up front when self-publishing, and even have to buy your own author copies. Some companies, like Dorance (sp) Publishing, might require you to guarantee them that you can sell X number of books before they will print. Other companies like Author House (reputable - I know someone who has used their services, and considered it myself) will sell you publicity and marketing packages along with your self-publishing contract. That way, you can focus on what you do best: write. Unless you've got a mouthpiece of have tons of money to pay in newspaper ads, buying a package such as this might be better, since professionals do this for you, and you have a better chance of selling your books.\n\nI have not really looked into on-demand printing; I dismissed it as an option early on. I learned from someone with experience, that on-demand publishing does not generate a lot of sales. \n\nThe best way to start your journey to becoming a best-selling author is to do your research. Get books like The Novel Writer's Toolkit (if you're writing novels), books on book publicity (tons), and especially the Writers' Market series of books. Go to your library in the writing section and explore. There is tons of information, even how-to books on writing queries, synopses and proposals. You will still need a synopsis and/or propsal even if you intend to self-publish your book.\n\nI have thought about self-publishing my novel, but I have been directed into a different path. I'm working on finding an agent. Writers have much better success, in general, when an agent believes in their work and sells it to a publishing house. If you've never been published, it will be hard, but don't give up on the first no, because there might be a lot of no's.\n\nGood luck, from one author to another.

I've tried a lot of stuff and most of it is either a 21st century chain letter or a thinly-veiled fraud.  I've spent far, far more money "getting in" to these things than I've ever gotten out of them even when I continued to "work the system."\n\nIt is such a shame that the old and simplistic ad is now disallowed, "Send me a dollar", that way we don't get over this business: "Want to work in your jammies?  Email me, send me some money for me to tell you to place innocuous little ads that say, 'want to workin in your jammies? send me some money so I can tell you to make these little ads....\n\nIf I just clicked on "report abuse" it would be good, but spilling the beans on these chain things might be better, maybe.

Hi,\n\nI have tried selling games on ebay , PS2, Xbox from dropshippers or wholesalers, it was good money but it seemed only to be very busy towards Xmas time, so a little seasonal that one.\n\nMaybe there other dropshippers that you know of that could be selling something that you could make a buck or two on.\n\nI have a list of dropshippers & wholesalers if you would like them.\n\nBut what I think you may be better off doing is getting yourself into Internet Marketing. \nI have come across many scams in my time, but believe the one I have joined last month is going to be the best one going.\nYou may have already heard of it but how would you like your very own website built within 24 hours, with the top 5 affiliate companies with your affiliate links displayed, ready to pull in residual income from $50 per person?\nhttp://www.1st4workfromhome.com has it all, dont just take my word from it, take a look and see what you think.\n\nAlso, to add to such an awesome opportunity, to which you can add to your personal  website is Success University at http://www.1st4homebiz.successuniversity.com/slim....this has to be the best company to get involved in at the very beginning.\nPeople like Stone Evans are already advertising this like crazy on their very own very popular websites to bring in a huge downline for us, so the sooner you get in the better you will stand and the more downline members you will receive.\n\nSo there are options out there and whatever you feel like I wish you all the best.\n\nRegards\n\nSimon

NO! I ordered them, had to pay 50 bucks, and what I got were a bunch of documents I had to read. They wanted me to fork over $150 if I wanted to get started. But I did some research and it is definitely a scam. I called them, wrote to them, and even emailed them. They sent me my money back fortunately. Don't do it.. don't do any of the "easy money" crap.. it's aaaaaall scam.

You can go here and make you some money. It worked for me. I even have enough monwy extra to spoil myself a little. Check it out.

Well, you certainly aren't showing me any intelligence by posting advertising in this forum. Since you're obviously not able to follow instructions, I'd hesitate to even consider you for any jobs.\n\nBut hey, perhaps you can suck in some clueless customer with more money than sense. Good luck in getting paid. The blind leading the blind.

OH MY GOSH YES SIR I DO!!  Depending on the mood I am in I either play along, so far as to sound eager and very willing!! or, I will suggest that they use the money to educate the people that work for them!! Most of the emails I have received, the spelling has been horrendous, or not that I can really talk, their grammar and punctuation is lacking!!  Then their are the days where I just check the box, and hit the spam button!!  What I wonder is, do they just mail them out to all of us?, or do they "hmmmm, this persons name is Sue Smith, I bet she would love to be involved in an illegal scam!! Let's give her a shout!"  Have a great day all!

I used to manage a used bookstore and I'll tell you from a cash-flow point of view its very hard to stay afloat if you offer more than a nickel or dime a piece for a used book.  If you want to sell your books and a used bookstore won't take them I'd suggest you try an online dealer or auction site like ebay or alibris.

I have used a program called E-paper to write E-books. However, it is not secure and the author does a pretty good job of advertising on the product.  Advertise on E-bay, sell it direct for a while. You will need to set up an E-mail account, I prefer to use PAYPAL for money transfers on the internet. Later consider using www.clickbank.com\nSorry, I had to come back and edit. If you sell the item through paypal, you can put on the receipt back to them the website where to download the ebook. You can even use one of the free websites

Yes and Yes,\nThis book is very informative and opened my eyes to a whole new way to make money on-line - actually several new ways. I\nbought it recently and have already used many of his suggestions to set up several different income sources. It is well worth the small asking price for the amount of knowledge you will receive. But keep in mind - he writes with an attitude, after all he is a rich jerk.

I am writing a Cookbook. What I did is search for Book Publishers on the Inet. Many may require money from you up front (But, market the book better) and some may not charge any up front fees (And Do nothing for you), it just finding the one you want. Let me go check my "Favorites" and I give you a few links BRB.\nWell, most of mine only do Cookbooks, but, this one; http://www.trafford.com/\nHere they have a Free Publishing Guide to help you. YOU NOT have to use this Publisher. Research this for a long time. Above me are some GOOD answers. Publishing a book takes time do not hurry! As, I work on my Cookbook I have the time to research more Publishers and Costs. Hopefully when my Book ready I will know who to send it to and what they require to Accept my WONDERFUL Cookbook. ;-p
