If you are a writer or simply someone with an awesome ebook to sell, you may know of many different marketing channels for your work, but have you ever considered the power of your own social networks? This article looks at a great new tool for reaching the people that you've already touched with your online presence, and gives you tips for converting friends into purchasers. Think about this as a great way to generate passive income...

CybaSumo.com has recently launched a groovy tool for artists, musicians, writers and other creative types that helps them sell their stuff directly to their social networks. Once you sign up for free at www.cybasumo.com, you get a store in a widget - a box where customers can browse and shop - that you can put anywhere. You can easily place your store widget on your Facebook profile without any programming or HTML. Soon you'll also be able to place your store on your MySpace page, blog, and more.

That means that each time your friends see your profile on Facebook, they can check out and buy your stuff. Your profile is your advertisement! And there's no need to send them to another site - they come to CybaSumo.com when they're ready to finalise their purchase.

That's where there's strength in numbers. You'll find hundreds of other artists in our CybaSumo catalog. Every time their customers come to the site to complete a purchase, they'll be able to see what you have to offer, too.
