Tip # 1 – Be a curmudgeon and just don’t celebrate the night. Once the kids left home, we ended up with zero trick or treaters at our house on a state highway.

Risk: Your e-book has to be very strong to build up a following and then it helps if you have some way to market it, too, such as an existing website, a promotion on other relevant websites, appearances in the media or podcasts or something else.
