Hey everyone, how are you? I’m working on a big update of my free course here in the community! I want to make it bigger, more specific and help you more and more totally for free :) I hope to finish it in one or two weeks, I’ll write an update when it will be ready!

First of all, quick reminder before anything else: the 50% discount code “THANKYOU5000” for our 5,000 subscriber milestone is still live on everything at www.elevatepublishers.com, but not for much longer. Less than 24 hours left. If you’ve been meaning to grab a course, now’s the moment before it’s gone. Okay, now the fun part. I’m starting something new, and I want you in on it from day one. Once a week, I’m gonna create a YouTube video where I answer YOUR questions. Not generic stuff, the actual things you’re wondering about, straight from this community. And it’s not just Amazon KDP. You can ask me about anything in that world: 📚 KDP and self-publishing (obviously) 💻 Online business in general, funnels, content, audience, monetization 🧠 The more personal stuff, mindset, how I actually run my days, decisions I’ve made, whatever you’re curious about Basically, if it’s on your mind and it’s even loosely connected to building this kind of business, ask it. Here’s how it works: Every week I’ll post a question thread like this one. You drop your questions in the comments below. I read all of them, and I pick only the best and most interesting ones to answer in the video. Not every question makes it in, I want each video to actually be worth watching, so I’m choosing the ones that’ll help the most people. The schedule: This week’s thread goes up today (Friday). I’ll film the answers and publish the video next week, probably over the weekend. And the moment that video goes live, I’ll drop a fresh question thread for the following week, so the cycle just keeps rolling. So, this is the thread for THIS week. 👇 Drop your questions below. Anything KDP, online business, or personal. Don’t hold back, the weirder and more specific the better. Let’s make the first one great. — Dave

I purchased Davide's two ebooks off Gumroad and am halfway through the one on content marketing. It's very helpful and I can already envision a lot of angles and approaches that would work for my books.

A question about collecting email addresses. Amazon’s terms and conditions prohibit including links in your book that lead to email collection. How do you do this legally? What percentage of people sign up for these free bonuses compared to book sales?

I'm kinda blown away right now. When I started this whole thing, I wasn't sure anyone would care about self-publishing done the strategic way instead of the volume-and-ads grind. And now there's 5,000 of you who decided this stuff was worth watching. That's not a number to me. That's proof that the approach we're building here actually resonates with real people trying to build something real. So THANK YOU. Every single one of you. And because a milestone like this shouldn't be a solo party, I wanna give something back. First, both courses just got a big upgrade. Content Marketing for Self-Publishers and Email Marketing for Self-Publishers now come with: 📄 A full downloadable PDF version of the entire course — so you can read it wherever you want, mark it up, keep it forever 🎧 Downloadable audio for every single lesson — so you can listen on a walk, in the car, at the gym, whenever Same courses, way more ways to actually use them and let the material sink in. Second, the celebration part. For the next 48 hours only, I'm dropping a 50% discount on both courses to say thank you for getting us here. 👉 Use code "THANKYOU5000" at checkout for 50% off ⏰ This ends in 48 hours and it's not coming back Content Marketing for Self-Publishers → http://www.elevatepublishers.com/l/content-marketing-for-selfpublishers Email Marketing for Self-Publishers → http://www.elevatepublishers.com/l/email-marketing-for-selfpublishers If you've been sitting on the fence about either one, this is the moment. Grab it, go through it, and let's keep building. Here's to the next 5,000. 🚀 — Dave
