    Hello from Denver - self publishing success

    GOLD! 
    I'm with you 100%. The seed that was planted when I found this thread wasn't "OMG I CAN MAKE 15k A MONTH IF I PUMP OUT MEDIOCRE SEX STORIES!" it was more of a realization that people like me without a publisher or book deal or going the traditional route of publishing can get their stories out...

    Hello from Denver - self publishing success

    GOLD! 
    Thanks for your quick response @COSenior. When you say @Held for Ransom moved on to greener pastures, does that mean he's no longer writing because of all the changes, or is he just not around here anymore? I'd still like to thank him for planting this seed in my head. I saw @ChickenHawk has...

    GOLD! 
    Wow, thanks a lot to @Held for Ransom for getting this thread started, and to people like @ChickenHawk @COSenior @Rawr among others for contributing a lot along the way. I'm working on another business right now with it's own progress thread, but I am so happy I found this thread and took the...

    I need traffic. I have an extremely low budget for paid advertising, so I need creative ways to get people to my site without throwing money at them.

    Thanks for taking the time to follow along @Beijing. I really appreciate it. I've actually approached about 90 influencers on instagram about plugging the product for us. The people that have responded each want a few hundred dollars for a post on instagram. That's fine, I understand that's...

    Progress Report 15 So it's been a little less than two months since my last update. We launched the day after I made my last post. We've had six sales since then. Not overly impressive, is it? I way overestimated what our influencer would bring to the table. I expected an influx of sales...

    Progress Report 14 It's been almost a month since my last update. We waited FOREVER on the influencer. As soon as we sent the product she left for a week so that delayed things a bit. Then it took her a while to get back into her groove at home. But, she loves our product and started using...

    Progress Report 13 Still alive and working. Here's where we are. Influencers can be pretty frustrating to work with. We e-mailed about 5 and got a response from one. I guess that's typical. She really likes our product and she wants to work with us. She's agreed to do all we asked her to...

    Progress Report 12 I've missed a lot of my weekly reports. My mistake. I'm still here and I'm still working though. Since it's been a few weeks, here's a summary of what I'm working on. Working with a supplier in China to launch my first PL product. Selling on Amazon. (obviously) Doing a...

    Progress Report 11 Nothing exciting this week. Finished setting up my "store front." I really like how it turned out. All the product pictures have been taken and they're almost finished editing. Working on the product funnel. Almost done. Still trying to figure out a few of the smaller...

    Progress Report 10 Couple days late. Here we go. We received the second sample and we love the changes. We'll have the pictures taken in a day or so for marketing and promotions. We found a major influencer in our niche looking for products to review. We're going to contact her in the...

    Progress Report #8 A day late on this one. It's been two months since I've started. Very happy I've kept up with it and haven't given up. The manufacturer is making a second sample to show the changes we came up with. Can't wait to get this one in my hands. We decided to keep the original...

    This is so upsetting to me. This is why I read the Millionaire Fastlane and this is why I'm striving to be an entrepreneur. Those kids don't care that their dads work 50-60 hours a week. They don't care how many promotions they've received, how many people work under them, how many awards...
