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.

Grab it, go through it, and let's keep building. Here's to the next 5,000. 🚀 — Dave

Hello everyone, Julien here. I've been interested in combining KDP, AI, and social media marketing for some time. I'm still working on my third book. I tend to prefer taking advantage of all the free marketing channels to their full potential, like TikTok and all the other platforms, testing unconventional methods to disrupt the marketing status quo and hopefully make a lot of sales.

Hi everyone, New to the group, but I already love Dave’s approach to the business. Embracing content marketing instead of all the traditional methods really clicks with me. I’m also intrigued by the limited-to-no-ads strategy. I have just one question. I mostly do high-content books (not low-content or journals). Can the same strategy – producing books that have high viral potential, are easy to create, and can be marketed on TikTok – work for me? I heard Dave’s story about the "giftable couples book" that took off. Any insights on whether something similar can work for deeper, high-content nonfiction would be really appreciated.
