This is one of the reasons why I always advise using the preorder feature. Get the book ready for both Amazon and Smashwords, set a preorder date that you can synchronize on both, and upload. No last-second timing needed - just let it go live on schedule. Plus, you can do some advance marketing and maybe get some more first-day sales!
