Hi there,
I´ve been reading your posts for a while but only decided 2 days ago that I want to join this amazing community. I am german but have been living in Brazil for 2 years now. Together with my business partner I own a business that sells online fitness and nutrition programs and memberships. We are doing o.k. but I think there is a much greater potential.
Anyhow, in this threat I want to write about my second business. Well, to be honest, it`s not a true business yet since I just started. I always wanted to write but thought that it`s only a hobby and certainly won`t make me rich. Sometimes my thoughts are running crazy and I "need" to write them down. I love to create stories and enjoy the process of playing with words and creating something that hash`t been there before.I already published a few shorter books on amazon. Three of them are fitness topics that sell very well but mostly because I already have a following in that niche. My other three books are kids stories which I published just for fun to see if there is a market for it. I didn`t expect much but was amazed how well they sell. Within 3 three weeks I sold about 50 of my first story and 110 of my second story. My third story has only been online for 2 days and I am exited to see how this one will perform. I am only selling my stories for 0.99 cent at the moment because they are not illustrated yet. This means that my stories are making between 25 and 50 Euros passive income (I am publishing on the german platform) per month. I know that doing what you love is in most cases not the same than creating a fastlane and publishing on amazon violates a few of the commandments but I want to see where this road leads to ;-).
I´ve read some of the posts here, especially the one from ChickenHawk ;-), and think that this is a process worth following.
I already learned a ton from you guys so I want to be completely transparent with my numbers and process to give something back. I am still at the beginning but determined to make this work. I`d love to hear from you and I am always interested in opinions and ideas !
Cheers,
Karla
