Dave Chesson on becoming the “Kindlepreneur” | Before the Bestseller 14


Today’s guest needs no introduction but I’ll give you one anyway.

Here’s the hint: He’s Mr. Kindlepreneur. Not just by his own naming but by Amazon – which actually calls him that themselves.

While overseas in the military, he started building websites. One of his sites, Kindlepreneur, eventually took off with hundreds of thousands of visitors each month.

After hearing about the struggles of authors and reflecting on his own experiences, he built publisher rocket – a tool used by almost every self-published author and major publisher out there.

If fact, I speak from experience, Publisher Rocket is integral to my own business.

Dave and I talk about how he built what he did, his advice for authors in marketing a book in today’s world, and even going from solo-preneur to leading a whole team.

Along the way we  also talk about his latest innovation, Atticus, which is an all-in-one writing and book formatting software.

Here’s Dave Chesson of Kindlepreneur.
