Digital Demand is Growing

Experts in the digital marketplace all say that the future price of eReaders will directly impact demand for eBooks. Once the price point goes below the $200 dollar level, the demand should increase exponentially. Now that the price has gone significantly under that magic $200 level, expect to see tremendous increases in the demand and sales of eBooks. 

Ironically all the eReader manufacturers such as Apple, Amazon and Barnes & Noble proclaim they are having difficulty selling more eReaders simply because the list of available eBooks is small. For the independent author and small publisher this creates a tremendous opportunity to capture market share and generate sales. There is no doubt that window is open for new digital content and the time is right to add your book to the list. 

Major publishers are reluctant to release a wider array of older backlist titles simply because they do not want to cut into their print business which is the lifeblood of the big publishers. This creates opportunities for authors and with the right distribution, beyond Apple, Amazon and B&N the better chance you have of making a name for yourself as an independently published author.
