Description:
When one of the founders wrote his first eBook and went to publish it on (URL removed), he was shocked at what he learned. He realized that he would give away roughly 70% of his profits and was awarded no marketing assistance. In addition, Amazon’s library consists of roughly fifty-nine million books which made it virtually impossible to gain substantial exposure. In response to his frustrations, ShockingUBooks was launched October 2011.
