You’ve written a book, but it’s not selling like you had hoped. And you wonder, “Maybe some Amazon ads would help?”

Or maybe you’ve thought about writing a book but are afraid it will flop.

Don’t worry. You’re not alone. Every self-publishing author faces those fears at some point in their career.

Thankfully, there’s a platform that can make sure your book gets in front of exactly the right people.

You can place Amazon ads to promote your book using Amazon Marketing Services (AMS). And it doesn’t matter if your book is new or old. You can use Amazon ads to sell your book when you want and where you won’t on Amazon’s own platform.

And contrary to popular belief, you don’t need loads of time or a huge marketing budget for Amazon ads. You don’t have to be super techy or be a marketing guru. You don’t even have to be enrolled in Amazon’s Kindle publishing platform for authors anymore.

In fact, you can set up a long-term Amazon ad campaign using Amazon Marketing Services in less than 15 minutes and spend less than $10 per month.
