WHY: Lessons in Self Publishing?
This space started strong and has been lacking for the past few weeks. I know I have been traveling and my publishing business just published two books, so... busy, busy, busy! BUT, I want a refresh here. More people helping people. More publishing tips. More successfully published books! Please comment below why you joined this group and lets get back to WHY WE ARE HERE!

@Jeannette Mccurdy, That makes a lot of sense, being in a space where people are actually executing and not just talking definitely speeds up your growth. What are you currently working on right now, and where do you feel you need the most help or support at this stage?
Self Publishing Costs 💸
What was the most expensive part of your publishing process? What do you think you spent money on that wasn't necessary?

Great question, for most people, the highest cost usually ends up being editing, cover design, and sometimes ads that don’t really bring a return if the book isn’t positioned properly yet. A lot of what gets spent early on can be unnecessary, too, especially jumping into paid courses or tools before the basics are even clear, or paying premium rates for services you could have tested cheaper first. Curious from your side, what stage are you at right now with your publishing journey? And for anyone else in here, if you’re stuck or unsure where to start with publishing or how to avoid wasting money, I’m happy to share what’s been working for me and what I’d focus on first to get traction without overspending.
Quick thought:
A lot of people wait until they feel ready… but that moment never really comes. You just start, mess up, learn, and get better as you go. I’m at that stage right now focused on improving every day and staying consistent no matter what. If you could give ONE piece of advice to someone trying to level up, what would it be?

@Nita James, Really appreciate you saying that, glad it’s been helpful for you, especially as you’re just getting started. just wondering, what kind of business are you currently in or looking to build?
Quick question, just out of interest...
If you could sell your eBook directly from your site, and readers could read it instantly in a private library (no downloads), would you use it?

@Ania Ahlborn, Hello, nice to connect with you too. What kind of business are you into at the moment, or are you just getting started exploring things online?

Now running multiple 6-figure stores and helping others skip the mistakes I made. If I can do it, you can too
