The American Bookseller Association conservatively estimates that cookbooks represent over a 400+ million dollar a year industry. Based on these encouraging numbers, many first time authors, even some who have had absolutely no prior writing experience, are successfully publishing niche cookbooks and experiencing high sales volumes and profits due to the tremendous popularity of specialty cookbooks with many culinary oriented consumers.

The website www.CookbookCash.com notes that while many newbie” cookbook authors struggle to enter this industry by connecting with a bona fide agent or publishing house, there is also a small, but blossoming group of savvy cookbook authors that are avoiding this hassle altogether and remarkably being rewarded with huge profits for bucking the system. These cookbook authors are taking a lesser known, but increasingly more lucrative route of writing, self-publishing and promoting their own specialty cookbooks from websites specifically designed for that purpose. By doing so, they are keeping all the profits from the sale rather than just relying on small advances against royalties from the publisher. This small group of authors have really tapped into a secret recipe for turning cookbooks into a cash cow business. Many of them consider this to be the ideal work at home business.
