Mark Coker founded Smashwords to change the way books are published, sampled, marketed and sold.
Mark Coker is founder and CEO of Smashwords, an ebook self-publishing service. Smashwords makes it easy for authors to publish, promote and sell their ebooks. The service was launched eleven months ago and now publishes over 1,100 ebooks from 500 authors.
With Mark's previous startup, BestCalls.com, which he launched in 1999, he helped level the playing field for small stock market investors, who at the time were denied access to the earnings conference calls of publicly traded companies. His work with BestCalls, as a champion for fair disclosure, was a catalyst for the SEC’s ground breaking Regulation FD. BestCalls was acquired in 2002 by Shareholder.com and is now owned and operated by the Nasdaq Stock Exchange.
In addition to Mark's work with Smashwords, since 1993 he has owned Dovetail Public Relations, an award-winning Silicon Valley PR firm.
Mark is a long time angel investor and advisor to technology startups. He currently serves on the advisory boards of Flat World Knowledge, a publisher of open source textbooks, and GetQuik, a provider of restaurant order automation technology and services.
Mark is a graduate of the Haas School of Business at U.C. Berkeley, where he received his B.S. in marketing.
