Publishing is one of the best-kept secrets, known only to knowledgeable people who understand the value of their expertise in niche subjects. What have you done in your life that has impacted others and led to success? You may be holding onto a story, life concepts, or ideas that could pique the interest of those curious about your experiences.
Given the current state of the economy, many writers are turning to self-publishing for extra income. Some authors who are already published are choosing self-publishing in order to maximize their earnings, as they are not satisfied with their traditional publishers. Before diving into the world of self-publishing, it's important to note that you may not earn anything in the first month. Therefore, it's essential to have additional income or savings to rely on. However, it's possible to earn up to $30,000 a month through self-publishing if you follow the steps carefully.
1. The first step is to write a helpful book. Choose a topic that will be useful to a wide range of readers. It's best to target a universal audience, although writing for a niche market can also be good. Keep in mind that potential earnings may not be as high when writing for a niche market. This applies to fiction as well, as it can be either a huge success or a big disappointment.
2. Next, you need to identify your target audience. Are you targeting children under 5, teenagers, or adults? Who do you think is your primary target audience? Are they professionals, paraprofessionals, or ordinary individuals? Who do you think would be easier to sell to? Who has the purchasing power? Is it the reader of Harry Potter or the reader of Marketing and Strategies?
3. Then, you have to identify what type of book you’re going to publish. You should also know what type of publication you will be printing. This will be crucial to your marketing strategies. You should also look into the materials that you will be using. Although it will not be as crucial like with clothes, it will still matter.
4. After that, you should conduct a little bit of marketing. Do some research on how much a book price is so that you will know how to price your own book. Is it okay to charge your readers an amount of more than $100 dollars or will a lesser amount be more appropriate? Try to make a feasibility study about your book and books in the same genre. Check the competition and make your book more affordable.
5. As mentioned earlier in this article, don’t think of royalties so early in the game. You will end up disappointed. Sales can be sluggish during the first few months. Try to give it a year. If the sales is not picking up, try to hire a marketing personnel to boost your book sales in the market. Sometimes all it needs is some good marketing strategy.
When entering the self-publishing industry, it's important to be aware that there is a possibility of financial loss. However, it's essential to stay positive. Make "I can reach $30000 per month in royalties" your mantra. By following the instructions above, you can increase your chances of surpassing the $30,000 royalty mark.
