This isn't just for networking—sharing your story is the first step toward building the mindset of a successful publisher. Step 2: Start the Self-Publishing Foundations Course 📚 Head over to the Classroom tab. You’ll find the first 4 lessons of my Self-Publishing Foundations course ready for you. This isn't the "classic" method everyone else teaches; this is the exact system I used to generate over $230,000 in royalties without spending a dime on Amazon Ads. How to Unlock More Content 🔓 The first lesson is available to everyone right now. To unlock the subsequent lessons, you need to "level up". How do you level up? By being an active member! Post your insights, ask questions, and interact with others' posts to earn points. This system ensures we learn from each other and build a community of true experts.

Big news for the community.
I just discovered that Gumroad — where all my products live — has a feature called Purchasing Power Parity, and I've enabled it across everything. Here's what that means: if you're buying from a country where the cost of living is lower, you automatically get a discount. No code needed. No form to fill. It applies on its own the moment you open a product page. The discount can go up to 50% depending on where you're buying from. I noticed more and more people from different countries joining the community, and it made me think — $60 might be nothing for someone buying in euros with a Western European salary, and it might be a real barrier for someone in a completely different economic reality. That's not a reason to keep people out of the method. So I turned it on. If you want to see exactly what discount you're getting based on your location, head to elevatepublishers.com, open any product, and you'll see it applied automatically. That's it. Just wanted to make sure everyone here knew. Dave

Warming Up My Account
I’m about to purchase the content marketing course so maybe this will be addressed, but I was curious what the recommendation is for warming up a TikTok account. And speaking of the content marketing course, I thought I read that there was a discount for skool members. Is there a discount code for members? Thanks.
Hello everyone!
I started publishing “books” on KDP almost 10 years ago, but it wasn't until 4 years ago that I saw some consistent results. I’ve found a niche that, by today, has grown to 80 published books. I’m using the “old” system Davide is talking about (keywords), combined with ads. I don’t know how I found one of his videos on YT, but it was a real gem, and I’m looking forward to learning how to promote my books on social media, which I haven’t done so far, except for throwing them on Pinterest several years ago with no success. I’m looking forward to speaking with like-minded people on this platform and learning how to better promote my books and reduce ad spend.
An evolution I'm thinking about (and I want your honest take)
I've got something I wanna run past you, and I genuinely want your honest answer. When I started this channel it was all about self-publishing, and that's still a huge part of what I do. But the truth is I've never been only a self-publisher. I've built other businesses over the years, online and offline, because relying on one single way to make money has always felt risky to me. A lot of what I teach about KDP actually comes from general online business principles, things like how to sell digital products. So I'm considering an evolution. Turning the channel into more of a personal brand under my name, where I'm free to talk about everything I know, how to make money online with different methods, how to sell digital products, how YouTube works as a business, all of it, with KDP still right in the mix. Here's the part I think actually matters for you. When you understand all these business models, you stop seeing them as separate things and you start mixing them, using the advantages of each one together, and that's where the real money is. That's exactly what I do. Self-publishing is one of my main businesses, but it's not the only one, and the best thing I can show you is everything I do, not just the KDP slice of it. You'd get to see how the whole thing fits together. And honestly, I might show you more than just the business side. More of how I actually live, the day to day, because I think some of you would appreciate seeing that my life is pretty normal. I just have a different job than most people. It's a different way of living, but I'm a regular guy, and that's kind of the point, because if I can do this, you can too. Before I commit to anything though, I wanna hear from you ❤️
