A
Start to Finish Challenge on Kindle Fiction Publishing
I Felt So
Disappointed in Myself When I Heard My Subscribers Had Surpassed My
Earnings Simply By Being Consistent with Kindle Fiction!
Imagine Seeing
Your Initial $200 Earnings Grow Into a $50,000 a Month
Fiction Empire - Without Having to Land Bestseller Status
The backstory...
Four years ago
I found out about the ease of publishing on Kindle and took
a couple of courses to learn how to do it. I told my list,
and many of them decided to do it along with me.
I swallowed my
fear and got a short, 38-page dystopian story published (The
Feast). I earned a couple hundred dollars and actually had
fans signing up to my list wanting me to complete the
series.
But at the
time, I was mired in a messy marriage that was about to end,
so I walked away because the earnings didn't compare to what
I made in other online marketing branches and I just
couldn't give it my full attention.
But those
subscribers I took with me on that journey stayed the
course. Months later, I'd get emails saying things like,
"Tiffany - I just wanted to thank you - I'm now making
$10,000 a month. You should get back into Kindle!"
But at the
time, I was going through a divorce - no time for fiction.
And I earned more with Internet Marketing, so I didn't want
to take my focus off of my money makers.
Finally, three
months after I was legally free and happy, I decided to try
it again. By this time, the emails from my subscribers
changed. They were more urgent. They said things like,
"Tiffany - I know you've been going through a lot. I
want you to know that I'm now earning $25,000 a month. You
really need to get back into this!"
By this time,
I was kicking myself. They were beginning to surpass my
monthly income. Six figures is nice. But some of my friends
were making $40,000 and $50,000 a month.
So I decided
to try again. But this time, I wanted to be more methodical
about it. I wanted to know that if I veered off course into
a new business branch, it would be worth it - because I have
kids to support.
I studied and
planned and developed my own insight about fiction. I chose
a genre, not how everyone else advises - but my own method.
And it worked.
I decided to write a series of standalone stories. My first
one was a short story (even shorter than my dystopian one).
I priced it at $0.99 and earned $0.30 per sale. It did
pretty well, but you can't earn much at $0.30 per sale.
I did another
one next - 74 pages - but still priced at the low rate of
$0.99. I was seeing more than what I'd seen with one
short story, but I knew I needed to push myself into a
longer book.
So I did. And
this time, I made it to 152 pages (over 40,000 words) and
was able to charge $2.99 - and take in $2.09 per sale.
That's when the income grew to over $1,500 a month - and
rising.
Thanks to what
I learned by getting out there and networking my way into
some cool partnerships - and writing with a different
strategy, I was ranking better and earning more:
Only now do I
see the viability in it. Because in just seven books, I'll
be making over $10,000 a month like my former subscribers -
and growing it from there.
I have
attended author meetups with other Kindle publishers, and
they've taken me under their wings to teach me things no
Internet Marketing course has ever shown me. These women
don't even know what IM is.
And now I want
to share what I've learned with you as we both embark on a
consistent productivity challenge from start to finish with
Kindle publishing.
What the Kindle
Fiction Challenge Is ... and Isn't
The best
thing about this challenge is that it's going to get you
to go through the process in full. Once completed, you
realize it's not as hard as you imagined, and it makes it
easier each subsequent time.
You can do
this for the mechanics of it under a "throwaway test
pen name" or go all in and publish as yourself - as
long as you don't allow yourself to get overcome by self
doubt.
This is not
a full "how to write" course. In fact, I don't
think there is such a thing. I know, as someone who
studies the craft, that it's best to read a multitude of
books on things like dialogue, setting, plotting and so
on.
But I will
be giving tips on those things. So there will be a mix of
how to write better and research and position yourself for
success.
You'll learn
things like:
 Whether
you should work on short stories or full length
books...series or standalone
How
to choose a genre that will help you enjoy satisfaction
and profits, combined
How
to research your audience preferences so that they leave
good reviews and buy more from you
A
3-part daily routine to implement to further your success
in your genre
How
to outline your story to make writing easier
Networking
tips to boost your exposure before anyone even knows your
name
How
to write blurbs that pique the interest of your readers
Cover
design tips that ensure your book won't be ignored
Common
mistakes that drive your readers nuts and guarantee
they'll avoid you like the plague
How
to create a street team who gets out there and does the
marketing for you
When
to grant ARCs (Advance Review Copies) and who to give them
to for the best results
How
to create a Series Bible to fulfill your readers'
wishes...and more
What I teach
may be different from what others teach. I don't set out
with the intention of a certain number of reviews or
ranking. I'm focused on building a fan base and a lucrative
career.
If you'd like
to join me in a goal of fiction publishing from start to
finish, get signed up now! Although we start March 15th, you
can sign up ANY day of the year and the lessons and hand
holding and critiquing will still be waiting for you.
Don't worry
about keeping up exactly with everyone else. Trust me - the
group has members way ahead and way behind everyone. This
isn't a race with anyone else. It's about using this time to
finish what you start and see how Kindle fiction works for
you.
We're going to
take about a month and a half (about 6 weeks) to complete
this challenge. I hope you'll join me!
No
Refunds!
