I am publishing my first book in early June, and am very excited to become a publisher and part of this community. I have so far been slowly growing my email and ARC lists, and have been watching Dave's videos for about a week or so. All I have to say, is that I'm happy to be here with other self-publishers. Let me know if you have any tips for a newbie!

Hello everyone i hope you all are doing well, my name is badr eddine i'm from morocco in i'm glad to be apart of the community i want to learn more about this business and i'll be happy someone who can guided me from where to start

My first book is finally finished and out on KDP. It took me a long, long time and a lot of absorbing new information and learning new skills to get here and now ...... I have another mountain to climb. Many of you probably know much more about Social media than I do, though that's not a high bar! I have not had a Tik Tok or Instagram account before and in the last few weeks have had to learn how to make and edit videos on my phone (I've been using Capcut) and how to then upload them onto these platforms. I've also had to learn about the importance of a good hook, think about who I am aiming at and think about a style of video that suits my audience and me. I currently have three videos posted and am aiming to produce one a day for the first month. I suppose what I am trying to say is that if you managed to teach yourself how to write, produce and upload a book to KDP you can learn to produce and upload a Tik Tok video. There is a lot of information out there and Davide's videos and courses, here and elsewhere have been particularly useful. Much too early to say how things are going yet as regards the effect on my book but if, like me, you know little to nothing about Social media it can be done if you are willing to learn and put the effort in. Good luck everyone who is trying this approach. I will keep the community posted about my results and would love to hear about how everyone else is getting on with the posting videos side of things.

I have just watched the core videos and honestly, in all my years of doing KDP I have never heard self publishing explained this way. I am gobsmacked. I have a Masters Degree in Psychology and I have NEVER looked at the Title and Subtitle the way it is explained in video 3. It makes perfect sense , this way. Great information, @Davide Altieri . Now I need to take action.

Hey community, how are you?? I’ve just uploaded a new video on YT and I think it will be very useful for a lot of you! I talk about workbooks and why this kind of book is the best one right now if you insert it inside a funnel. Let me know what you think about it 🫶🏻
