I’ve been working on a business that involves me writing books and promoting the books of others but I’m not successfully gaining awareness of my business or gaining customers. I don’t know if the problem is in presentation, the fact that I don’t have a following, or the fact that I haven’t had the finances to advertise (even tiny ads (though I think I’ve done 2 or 3 mini ads totaling about maybe $40 towards them)). Outreach, marketing, and networking have definitely been my weak points. Because of this, I haven’t truly been able to test if my business is viable (though others have been successful). I’m hoping being on Skool will help. I have to at least first get the people to me to know if it works. It’s been 8 years. Any suggestions? Should I keep going with the idea? I have a few children’s books , a novel, and a friend who has a lot of books who I promote. I’m working on other books now. I just began to build a community for this yesterday. I did get a little feedback on it already. https://www.skool.com/sunjoy-books-7017/about

Hi. Just set up a new community (well, still setting it up) and would like feedback on my about page. https://www.skool.com/sunjoy-books-7017/about

I've had a flip phone for nearly four years, and I probably won't go back. People don't understand how I can be a marketer without a smartphone. It's not easy. I have to rely on my laptop, email, and Google Drive a lot. But you can do anything with those items. I don't have to be tethered to your phone at all times. If someone needs me, they can call or text me. I don't have to be informed about every minute movement in the world, 95% of which doesn't even apply to me. I've gotten more reading done. It's definitely helped my relationships with God, my wife, family, and friends. I feel more present. I'm not saying it's for everyone. But maybe try disabling the apps for the day and focus on the essentials. Your mind and soul will thank you. For the comments: What's something you try to do to reset yourself once a week?
