Best seller kindle ebook until 1 January 2020

The project goes well for now, I have completed the theoretic part of the ebook and I progressed the technical part which was a pain to solve at the beginning, I have now a very nice way to guide someone through the practical steps.

In fact I learned things that I didn't even know prior to this, the struggle to solve the technical part improved my web design skills significantly especially in the UX/UI area, I can easily draw inspiration from other web pages to create my own, I can create sales pages or any type of a simple site now and I can apply proper design, I understand much better the web pages I see and the messages they are trying to pass. I have to thank one tool for most of this, elementor pro that is. Best tool ever.

At first I thought about giving up on the technical part because it looked too much to explain such a thing in a usable and easy way but it is one of the biggest problems for new entrepreneurs and I have to create a best seller...so I'm not leaving anything out. I have to be patient and trust my brain, if I give it enough time, it will find solutions.

It's just a matter of time now, before I finish everything and start the edit/proofread part.

Progress for this week:

• I decided how my blog will look like and learned how to make it including the popups/responders/freebies etc
  
• I finished the last part of my ebook and started the editing/proofreading

Writing is tough, some days I don't have the power to write while others I may write a lot, I have to get used to this mood. The good news is that I work a lot and kinda enjoy it. The amount of work I have to do is insane though.

Writing is definitely tough.

I know how you feel. There are days you can keep cranking out good content and there are days you don't feel like writing anything.

It's hard but you have to keep thinking about why you're doing this. Once you keep your why in front of you you'll keep pushing in the times you don't feel like it.

Stick with it.

Think about where you'd like to be at the end of the year and know that if you keep pushing you'll get to your goals.

I wish you nothing, but success.

This week is going great, I work a lot and finally have fun with this, so far:

I completed editing the first three chapters of the book who are the hardest part of it, they are about 10k words.

I read some books about copywriting that improved my openings and follow ups significantly.

I decided how my freebie and blog articles will look like.


My plan is:

Not obey typical essay writing rules.

Use strong statements, quotes and scenarios to make powerfull openings with a supportive follow up.

Use max 3 sentences per paragraph and have lots of empty space.

Use very few titles (if any) within a chapter since they are so annoying and disruptive.

Overall, I have so much fun with writing now, I'm doing crazy things with it in my struggle to pass my message in an engaging way. I love watching articles just to see how they opened and transitioned, I could really benefit from a swipe file.

This project will really be a testament to my copywriting skills because I will have to write soooo much, I will certainly use everything that I do as portfolio after. I'm happy that I found something new in my life that I can obsess with no matter what happens. I have lost many interests over the years, I needed something new.

I had to do a very hard edit this week, the book was heading towards the wrong direction and made it harder for me to write as well. I changed the information architecture, style and included new ideas and now the book has improved a lot and has a specific goal and direction.

I use a very specific style, process and theories in my writing now that I developed this week after lots of thinking. I'm basically on the same part as the last week but the quality has improved significantly. The first chapters look perfect. Now, I can finish the book.

Also, I had to improve my room's setup in order to work better because it was terrible, now I can work easily.

Everything going well with the book so far.

I'm kinda sad that, I haven't managed to sell my xbox and 3rd account of my previous venture, I mean these are 300e right there that I could use for paid marketing after I finish my ebook and blog or for ebook cover design and other stuff regarding the book.

It's kinda hilarious but I got bored and now use the console to play when I take breaks from writing, seriously, my previous venture made me so much that I was able to spend tons on unprofitable investments and still have enough to make my blog and even promote my ebook. I actually have enough to buy some games too.

I finished a very very tough part of the ebook this week, I'm up to 30k words now, I will soon finish this edit and I will proceed with a 3rd one that will go faster. I have found solutions to many problems, it looks like I will manage to finish this.

I keep pushing, I finished editing another 5 articles.

The work is extremely tough and requires tremendous patience but I can't lose at this point because I came to the conclusion that business is a terrifying challenge. You have to sacrifice something that will never be easy to do so, this could be: taking a big risk by investing a lot, offering painfully hard skills, branding yourself and pray that your personality and offer will attract people, accomplish heavy responsibility tasks that will require a lot of social proof to be entrusted to you etc. Sometimes is a combination of all these things.

I thought that poker required much harder work ethic but this isn't so true after all. This is the nature of business and it doesn't end there, I keep watching people who work all day and are plagued in debt and struggle to survive, others are break-even and waste their time but they have no alternative, there is no guarantee that you will succeed even after your sacrifice.

Sometimes I think that this ebook is so hard that I would never want to do something like this again but then I remember how tough business is and that thought fades.

Not only it is very hard but also I feel weak about this ebook because I don't know if my audience will indeed want to buy this, I just took a guess by watching comments and questions, I didn't research properly. I literally dive into the unknown with this venture, I love suicidal and romantic adventures like this, some only love the bright side of business, personally I love the dark too, you know trying hard....promising...having faith...and then booom, being obliterated, everything falls apart, It's funny. I probably gained that masochistic trait from poker. I'm just enjoying this because it is an adventure and not because I will win surely.

Anyway, winning or not, this business will allow me to do a loooot of things that will contribute to my portfolio. I will be able to do everything with the blog and ebook, this includes: email marketing, ppc, social media, seo etc. Even if I fail, the portfolio and experience gathered from these will act as a gateway to the B2B writing world which is a safer world, so not only I don't have a defeatist attidute towards this business but instead I'm taking it very seriously as my only means of making a living online.

Well, I'm not saying that the B2B is any easier, the challenge is still huge and there is no certainty that my work will be enough to qualify me considering that I also lack in degrees (relative to the subject), English ability and composition, nevertheless in the tough world of business, I don't have an alternative, this is the only thing I can offer so I have to win somehow, no matter how much I lack.

The ebook I write has been my best teacher so far, it is meant to allow you to succeed in business under any circumstances, all I have to do is following my own advice.

I'm very close to the third and final edit of this ebook. There are still some few challenges left but overall the final edit will be very fast, if I managed to get this far, that means the ebook will become a reality.

The basic dilemma this week was if I will include the blog or not, I had to re-analyze my marketing plan, so I decided that I will include it, it won't necessarily allow me to attack more marketing channels but I will be able to attack the same ones in a more powerful way. Thanks to the ebook I will be able to create the articles fast.

I had to choose between several themes and builders for my blog, the best ones being astra, elementor pro and avada, the dilemma was elementor tiled cards vs avada left side image one under other style, I couldn't decide because I liked both, in the end I chose elementor pro because it also offers popups and it's much cheaper, it is an excellent product and one of the few that I will sell through my blog and ebook. Wordpress and making a site seems so easy at this point, I played too much with it because I also had to include some tutorials into my ebook.

Besides a blog, I even consider to include a YouTube channel into my plan, my marketing plan is what I call a "mass attack" plan, I plan to attack everywhere that is free to do so and be persistent about it.

When you create an ebook, you have no reason to not include every content creation platform in your marketing plan because at this point it should be easy to create content by stealing from the topics of your ebook.

This week I felt weaker regarding my writing and I ran into some confidence issues, the writing and content strategy that is required for this project is extreme for someone like me, my english are bad and my composition is even worse, hopefully editing and proofreading will save this project.

Anyway, my resolve is strong, I will somehow manage to finish this. I have to quit the perfectionist attidute, I don't believe that you need to be perfect to succeed as a writer, it's more about the message rather than the flow.

I started the final edit of the ebook, everything is ready at this point, so I won't have to change much. This edit will include proper formatting too, I will create styles and table of contents etc.

I'm so exhausted from this but I don't regret it. I have been writing 3k+ words per day, the ebook itself is close to 40k words.

The problem with writing is that while I know what I have to edit, I don't know why I did in the first place and how to repeat for the rest of chapters. I now realize that editing has incredible potential, this is a part that I understimated. Luckily, I don't have to change the message of the book, it looks ok but there are a lot of pointless words, too much theory, too much repetition etc. Some paragraphs and statements are great while others look like I was struggling to write something.

I need an editing formula and more defitine style, I don't believe in formulas but I have to edit AND proofread 40k words and then I have the articles too. It's an overkill so I need a way to work faster.

I really can't believe what I'm doing, I edited & proofread & rewrited 7200 words several times in 2-3 days, on top of this the chapters were very tough. I had some sick performance this week, I worked A LOT and my first two chapters look insane in terms of quality now.

Editing has incredible potential and I believe I'm good at it, I feel I slowly become stronger, I detect jargon very easily, I know when to recostruct my IA, when I should recostruct sentences or entire paragraphs or even entire chapters. I notice some of this stuff instinctively.

I will never write a book again but I'd admit I have become very fit at writing and especially editing which I understimated severely. My previous book was 15k words and I struggling hard and even partnered with a friend for the editing part, now that looks like a joke tbh.

I'm a bad writer but inspiration and editing can save the game.

I sold the last account from my previous venture for 100 dollars, I really needed that boost

I'm better writer now but really, I have a tendecy to dive deep into theory and overcomplicate things, also I want to write everything but I can't. I wrote awesome paragraphs that I have to delete. It's like a strategy.... you can't do everything, you have to delete stuff and actually a lot of it. I need to trust my readers more and make sure that my advice will be as practical as possible even if that leaves out complicated advice.

I'm very close to the end of this project, I have formatted everything, I set the table of contents and I even uploaded it to kindle and test it right now. Luckily I had all the ms word styles from a previous book so I didn't have to create them again.

I decided that I won't create a blog because the project is such that the benefit will not worth the time spent to it, I just don't have enough knowledge to make an entertaining blog unless I curate content, it's just a starting tutorial after all, there will be no significant value on my blog posts since I don't dive deep into a specific subject. I'm still thinking to create a sales page with very few emails because I think I can create a powerful copy and also that would allow me to include some upsells in my book but I'm not sure if those upsells worth it either. I want to include some affiliate links especially elementor.

I tried to do some research about the book this week and I received negative feedback because people don't like fancy theories but rather straightforward advice. Entrepreneurs are more pragmatists than realists. I need to remember why I started this project in the first place and that wasn't to write smart stuff and look good but rather to give a solution to those who are starting out in digital business and spend tons of hours searching and googling, also some technical advice regarding each business. None will understand the smart stuff that I write especially the audience I'm targeting since my English are bad and people may lack knowledge in order to grasp my way of thinking, also I don't have enough social proof to force someone reading such theories, they will demotivate him immediately.

Back in the day, when I was reading poker books, the authors did something similar, they didn't give you an educated explanation about their advice, they didn't dive deep in the roots of theory and math, their books were filled with ignorance, yet they were popular. I have to do something similar no matter how much I hate it.

Anyway, I give the book one more month and it will be out by then, I'm trying to correct the flaw and the message of the book, I need to stick to the plan and not expand to complex stuff.

The book is complete and I will publish today or tommorow. I'm not going to create a website. I will instead market it through influencers and social media.

I'd say it's not exactly what I wanted but it's very readable and it kinda send the message that I initially planned for. I had to remove a lot of stuff from it and it's now about 15k words instead of 40k.

Anyway, I'm done with writing because my English and communication level is just too low. I think I overstimated myself. I'm not messing with such a long project again. I will see what I will do in the future but for now I will take a big break from business because I'm exhausted.

I'm happy with this challenge because I still had to learn a lot, this book was a school for me but I'm sad because this isn't a business that I can stick with and repeat it. I actually struggled a lot during the end. Nevertheless, I can do a lot now, so I will find a way. My goal now is making the best out of this book and find a business that I can stick with for a long time, no more hustles.

It will probably take a lot until I update again.

Good job seeing the project thru to this point. Most people would have given up by now. Hopefully people will like your book and purchase it. What platforms do you plan on selling it on ?

This is a 'path' thread where you explain what it is you are doing - after posts where you talk about 40k words....WHY is it now only 15k? Nothing wrong with the size but such a big change must have a 'story' behind it - and might educate others here.

[QUOTE]this isn't a business that I can stick with and repeat it. I actually struggled a lot during the end. /QUOTE]

Starting a business is a struggle - there's really no way around that. Your writing is quite good judging from the extensive posts in your threads here.

.Writing, publishing and doing some promotion is a good ending but members would enjoy knowing how it ends - is the book selling, etc.

One advice that I can give to writers is to use a lot of dots if you lack the flow to transition well. I would obviously prefer to be an excellent writer and have good flow but I lack the skills so I abused this mechanic. I saw a writer who did the same, lots of dots and new sentences within the same paragraph. Of course you have to talk about the same subject but describe different things about it.

Sounds like a great program that will get you where you want to go!

I think the most important thing it succeeding is persistence. I have found that to be so in my own case, and recommend that you keep going on your path. You will definitely make it.

It's also very helpful to have a mentor or someone that can hold you accountable to your commitment to succeed. Feedback and encouragement from a trusted friend is very helpful.

Good luck!!

It sounds like you are doing great, Shanks88! I might suggest that you try posting on Pinterest as a social media channel. Just get an account and then line up with a group or topic that relates to your book. Pinterest posts stay up for a long time, so it should be good exposure.
Good luck!

I haven't taken action yet. I spent a lot of time thinking what should I do. It was rather tough because I always think about the long-term. Admitelly I did some mistakes, I was right that I will manage to finish this e-book project but I understimated the marketing part. Of course I was less experienced when I started this, I'm a different person now. (the e-book contributed to this)

Anyway, I came to a conclusion about how I will proceed with this. There are two ways from here. The first is creating a blog and commit while the second is creating few strong ads and then stop. For the first way I will use PPC funneling and social media while for the second way I will buy Amazon reviews and use reddit with upvotes, youtube and maybe pinterest or quora too. I found how to contact influencers, so this part is solved.

I'm not going to create a social media business without blogging because I can't see any long-term value. I honestly don't think it will work well. If I'm going to commit to such a project until the end then I may as well master my writing and content strategy skills and use them for money. This is the long-term value out of this. I will create a linkedin profile and use my writing work as portfolio for more money.

I tend to lean towards the second way because I think I'm at my limit with writing and I don't feel I'm very good with content either. I don't think I should push further with this. I will obviously honor this project and I'm experienced enough to make a decent marketing attack but I won't neccesarily commit more time than this. I'm mature enough now, I know perfectly what I can do and what I want.

I did a horrible mistake this week and spent some money from my paypal to buy some stuff unrelated to business. It's almost impossible to reload in my country so that was pretty bad from my part because I'm not willing to pay influencers or anything for that matter with my real credit card.

Luckily that mistake didn't ruin me, although made things tougher. I was tilting when I did it, so I wasn't thinking clear. This week was tough in many ways but I can see a way out of this now. I have a plan and I will decide what to do during the next days.

I'm done for now.

I decided not to promote the e-book yet but I will leave it published. I will promote it once I have enough budget to hire a good editor to rewrite it properly and a good designer for the cover. I will also hire someone to write some emails and the ads of my campaign. I may hire someone to rewrite some blog posts too. All these things won't require a huge budget but I still have to gather it somehow.

IMO you either can do something or you don't. I could write this ebook on my native language but it's impossible to express the ideas properly in English. Even in my native language I would still have problems despite the fact that my fluency is much better if not perfect. The structure of the e-book is great and same goes for the ideas but it doesn't look good now although it's readable. It would be a waste to promote it like this. After all the goal is to make money with it and if that's not possible then it's pointless to promote it. I'm a very patient guy and know when to pass even after considerable effort in order to benefit further in the future.

Overall, I don't plan to stick further with the e-book and entrepreneurship business type. I will promote the e-book if I get the chance to do it properly but I'm done with that business since my English are bad and I can't create another content. I miscalculated a lot of things but I won't let it be wasted. I have no reason to hurry.

One important lesson that I learned from this is that my sales skills are weak because my English are weak. There are few things I can sell that require very simple forms of copy and communication. Nevertheless, I should be able to outsource what's not possible for me to do and that's the part where I failed. I overstimated my English. I could push for more but I think that's enough, this isn't how business works. It would be more efficient for my time to gather the money and simply outsource.

Well, I may have weak sales skills but they still exist and I'm also specialized on few things, so I can still make money and maybe enough. My goal for now will be to make use of my sales skills in order to make money and promote the book once I have enough to afford.

I have been thinking for a long time that I need a way to create strong products in order to get marketers and investors or much stronger sales skills in order to resell easier and profitably. Right now I only have enough knowledge to use some simple platforms and resell some gaming stuff. I can't even create a product of my own that is worth anything. I will take some time off and train myself in either programming or English/Communications + a new strong niche. I will be able then to get partners easier and make money on demand when I don't have enough to invest.

Anyway, If I manage to promote the e-book then I will update but I'm off for now. I haven't failed yet, it's just a tactical retreat. I will return back to my bread and butter. Now I have the power to execute it to a much higher level. When I get the money then I will return back to the e-book. I plan to hire a godly editor and ghost writer.

Just remember this tip: business is a pragmatist thing. You can't reason with it. You never know until you try it to the end. Don't try anything unless you know that you can complete it 100%. Have enough money or be tested.

Did you publish it...or not? Sounds like it above but doesn't sound like it int he rest of the post.

I'm beginning soon the plan that will make me money for the e-book promotion. I will spend the next 4-5 months just making money the only way I can. I will redo the gaming account plan and this time I will try to resell gaming services too although I feel this won't work because recruiting will be hard as it is now. The last time I tried the account plan I made about 500e in 2 months but looking back at it, I made sooo many mistakes. This time it will be refined. I'm not expecting to make any crazy amount but it may be enough to promote properly my e-book and do other stuff too.

I kinda feel happy because I love games, I get a warm feeling when I return to them. You know colors.... fantasy... I love this stuff. The money amount might be small but I don't get exhausted doing it so there is a benefit to it. One thing I have realized in my business journey is the importance of niche. This word is being used a lot in business but it's not understood properly by many. Every type of business needs a niche and a free niche platform that connects buyers with the niche sellers, this is the only way to build a budget from zero.

I slowly start to think as a businessman, I get business ideas out of nowhere, I believe my e-book contributed to this, e.g. I was thinking to sell web design for gaming boost sites with elementor or sell copy for such sites. Well I actually don't even have the skills for this (graphic design ones) but this is how you make good use of a niche. After I thought these ideas then I realized then that there were others who were doing it on the same platforms, it was kinda funny. Besides business ideas, I think I have become an expert at getting information from competitors or consumers and using it for my business. It all happens automatically now, every time I see prices or any kind of consumer comment then I get notes. I interacted a lot with the community for the plan I will execute now, I got tons of information both from asking and searching.

Overall, I feel like a different person and my view to the world has changed. Even when I talk my mother, I'm trying to train my communication skills and convince her for something like it is some form of business. I always think about ideas, prices, information etc. I see someone asking for something and then I think "oh he is doing market research, you are not fooling me!" kinda paranoid...

I was thinking about the e-book this week too and what I can tell is that while it is a good read and will help someone in business, it actually lacks the focus that will make it sell well. The execution stuff of the e-book might be too general for some and will force many to think for themselves. As it is now, it would make a great report but I don't think the concept is attractive enough for a paid e-book. I will leave it published for now but when the day comes to rewrite it, I will probably turn it into a niche business e-book that will include a lot of execution stuff, probably the one that I gather from the business I'm doing now. It would make sense to use a business that I did myself successfully and it will make it easier to promote too since the audience will be very specific. General entrepreneurship is probably too much for me. I can offer ideas and guidance but I can't offer very specific business related patterns and I lack the social proof to compete for such a general niche. Something will have to change there too. Changing it to a niche e-book that makes guaranteed money for the buyer with specific patterns will probably make it sell better.

Anyway, I have done so many mistakes both with the e-book and the budget that I gathered from my previous project but it's ok. I spent no time that didn't give me any value. This is what matters in the end. I have some internet powers now and I can make money on demand from the web. This is progress. The big money will come from scaling the businesses I do now or by training to a new skill + niche which is something that I have considered for a long time now but I'm not ready for this yet and will take years to complete. My focus is on scaling for now and I believe I can do it this time if I get better with recruiting & outsourcing remotely. Overall, I have to respect the skills that I have and make them work for my survival.

Actually, the plan I will do now it's still a gaming service plan. It's just that I sell the services as a product instead of individually, you can do the same with web design or some other services too. I could call this a gaming account plan if I flipped accounts only. Selling the services individually doesn't guarantee that I will manage to sell enough within the month especially with bad promotion. On the other hand creating a strong account with multiple services incorporated to it that most need would make the plan faster I believe.

This time I plan to make the most efficient time to money management ever. Last time I overdid it and I missed so much value because I used services that didn't target the masses and they were so tedious too, hell I didn't even research. Generally, the money is not a problem assuming that the time and stress management are analogical to it. In fact if you do it well then it's not that different from other freelance gigs. It's like a virtual assistant with a gaming niche.

I'm still facing some problems with recruiting. Efficient recruiting and outsourcing is clearly the key to a superior business because you win time but it scares me to do it remotely. I have to think about a recruitment plan.

When I think about recruitment, I still recall the first plan that I ever did on this forum which was to resell blogging gigs. Oh man my logic wasn't that bad and I even managed to recruit one blogger back then but honestly, the free platforms where I promoted were bad and I didn't even promote as an agency but rather as a third person with a terrible non-promising copy. The niche of my blogger was totally unknown to me (bitcoin) so I didn't know what platforms work well with it, neither I knew much about blogging so I couldn't judge the quality of his work which is important on the recruitment process. Considering how inexperienced I was, it is funny that I wasn't on the wrong path. I have to succeed on recruitment and promotion this time. I know the platforms, niche, gigs and everything.

Great job!

Keep it up.

I for one will love to learn how to publish my own Kindle books in near future.

I started my plans this week and I have already advanced a lot. I think I can already sell my account for a markup up to 100-150e. It only took me 2 days to build it but I was lucky too. My progress was delayed due to pc problems, my HDD died and caused me a lot of issues but luckily I had an SSD which saved me. I'm still getting a lot of errors and the game had a lot of updates this week nevertheless the situation is manageable now. I think I won't sell my account yet, I will probably wait 1-2 weeks in order to sell for a higher markup, this is a tough decision tbh.

I started a gaming service reselling business too which I mix with my account plan but it doesn't go well. I haven't been able to sell a gig yet. I don't expect to sell a gig anytime soon because the marketing I use is weak, although it's too early to judge that. If I'm not capable to sell a lot of gigs then the ones I will sell have to be very expensive otherwise the business is pointless. It's impossible to sell expensive gigs if you don't complete the gigs yourself and even then the gigs must worth hundreds. I use the same promotion method for the gigs as the one I did for my accounts. The difference is that my accounts worthed a lot so even if It took a lot of time to sell them, I would still make a decent amount of money. The account plan mixes a lot of services in one which raises a lot the price. It's not like the account's promotion is any better, I would still wait a lot but I have won a lot of time and price by mixing many services in one lifeless product.

Sadly, I'm not capable to sell any expensive individual gigs on my own neither I can recruit players who can that would also give me a decent margin. This makes me less optimistic about the service plan. The players that I recruited feel the same, they tend to avoid cheap orders of a few or one gig and they prefer getting a lot of gigs at once which will give them more money even if it cost them more time. It looks like everyone is chasing after work in this business because it's so hard to find.

When you can't sell a lot then you have to create more expensive products. People do not buy based on prices but based on their needs, it doesn't matter if a product is cheap or not, so selling something expensive is better. I think I will scale this plan differently. I will hire people and outsource work for my accounts very cheaply instead of promoting their services to others, I will make money from the account's markup instead of the service margin, I still win time so it's scalable, I'm not sure if the markup will be enough though, at very least I will be able to avoid account related scams like recalls because the accounts will be mine and I won't have to find suppliers either. The recruits won't be disappointed too because they would constantly get work without having to wait. Right now, I can't offer them what I promise and they would think of me as a joker when they have to wait so long to get a job. I don't know why I didn't think about this from the beginning. I really lacked a business mind back then.

Generally, there are other problems too with prolonged waiting, e.g. the recruits might not be available when I will need them which will hurt my reputation to a customer and cost me money too (assuming I can't outsource to another company for a decent profit). Selling human time is more problematic than selling a lifeless product that is always available and doesn't waste your days. Finally, if I offer to my recruits immediate work then I might be able to get much better prices from them since there are always those who need money fast for many reasons even if under another circumstances they would never work for such prices.

Overall, it's a troublesome situation but I have evolved this plan a lot. I have to take into account that my marketing is weak and think of a way to exploit the platforms that I promote to as much as possible because I can't sell anything else elsewhere for now. I want to advance into my personal website with display ads and Google AdWords but it will take a lot until I reach that level. It's fine though, I have to learn the business better.

I really want to succeed in this because it will be a great testimonial for my book and will give me a lot of targeted content too.

This thread - like the last one - is turning into a diary or blog of your activities.


If you are promoting your book -stick to what you are doing to promote it. If you are doing something else - don't post about it in this particular thread.


"Warrior paths' that drift off into one new idea after another will be closed. They are to stay on topic and focus on the title and the 'path' you outlined initially.

You say you have uploaded your book - but no link to it - no one here can buy it because they can't find it.



That would be a good final post in this thread - a link to where members here can access your ebook. Free advertising!

Support comes in many forms on this forum.. it can be words of experience, it can be words of encouragement, and it can be support physically manifested. we can only support to the level you allow us to.. I get it, you don't think its "ready" BUT.. one of the biggest under-toned pieces of advice given by more experienced marketers here on this forum, is perfection is a tool for procrastination. If you have the book uploaded just leave the link or don't. Just understand you may be holding back "Support" how ever it manifests.

I will return back to the book from the following week (after next Tuesday). The lack of social proof and writing skills may ruin this project. I realize now that I wasn't ready to write a book but I will finish what I started. I have gathered a lot of ideas and tested lots of the book's concepts in practice during this break which will be a plus for the book's content.

I'm not going to create a blog or social media for the book because I don't want to commit more to this. I will only use free sources and reddit (if I can), I'm done with e-books after this one especially general purpose ones. The lack of social proof will really be a challenge for my copy because from my experience, social proof is what makes all the difference. Your copy could really bad but if you have some real info about your value there, you can save it. I could fake it of course but I'm not willing to win like this. It's ok I guess, I will find a way to make this happen. I will have to change a lot.

I haven't started working with the book yet but I prepared the ground and I decided how I will improve it. I will rewrite it in Scrivener and will use ms word for formatting only. I will edit it in my mother language and then I will translate it myself by using a combination of tools unless I can find a really cheap translator. This will make it easier to express my thoughts I believe especially some of the toughest ones. I don't plan to change a lot but I will certainly restructure it and add new stuff into it.

It will be easier working with it now because I had a major problem with my computer when I started it and it caused a lot of frustration. My break (and hustle) will finish in the coming Wednesday so I will return to the ebook by then.

In the past 6 weeks you have said the book is done - is published - have been asked to provide the link to the book and then said you are rewriting it.


There is no point in continuing this thread if we are returning to the 'I'm writing (or rewriting) a book'. You could have asked for feedback to help you and you haven't done that.


Several times you have said the book is finished- you say it's published - now it's being rewritten again.... You have not provided any examples/samples - no niche details - no link to the published ebook.



Without a link to the book being provided, this thread will be closed at the end of the month.

WOW, all of that good advise from successful members and some of them do it for for a living.

Personally, I refrained from commenting in this thread because I knew it would end this way.

Shanks88 you show all of the signs of Procrastination Illness. That is not a bad thing and a large majority of the population experience it. When I say it is not a bad thing I say it because with help from the right people it is easily resolved.

Until you at least seek help with it I politely suggest that you do not spend any money on any project of this nature.
