Book III Outline - "How to Sell a Book Online"

(Just to make a note of things. Yes, I also have some outlines for Book I and II, but this came together today, so I thought to make a record of it. Feel free to ask me questions about this or comment something I may be missing. 

As I was just looking this over, I see that some of this is going to show up in Book II (How to Publish Your [Kindle] Book) - and Keyword Research actually precedes Book I (How to Write Your Book)

And yes, I'll be looking for beta-editors when I get back to this - still have to get Book I and II done. Plus I have to test several of these steps out...)
