1. My Book publishing journey
o
Writing :
Ø
I started writing a book on LOA
dont know how to publish and who will publish
but only thing i know was FOCUS ON YOUR ACTIONS and universe will take care
o
Failures :
Ø
Once
I finished writing i started approaching Publishers and printing press
all said no , or a high price like 200 / 400 rs per book
o
Decision:
Ø
i
decided to print book on my own with printer and bind it
Like that my first print came out for one book at price of RS.150
publisher said it cant be printed like a book , so i researched on youtube
o
Booklet
print :
- I thought of reducing price and took bulk print outs and low price
- and with Booklet printing done now the price came down to
- 30(binding) + 20(print)+ 20(cover) = Rs. 70
o Instagram Promotion :
Ø
I
asked different bookshops to keep my book but they were not interested some
wanted ISBN number
I approached different instagram promoters but they asked around 10 to 15k
for promotion
o
Amazon
:
Ø
so
i planned to sell on Amazon
> but to sell on Amazon.com i needed GST number
> so i again reseached and found that if i publish on kindle its free
Ø so I started to publish on kindle .. which got uploaded easily
Ø then I started to publish on amazon for paper back
Ø
Which
is still in process
o
Self
publishers
Ø
Initially
when I wanted to publish the price came to minimum 1000 copies means 70 x 1000
= 70,000 copies
Ø
Now
I got calls from publishers saying if I pay just 6000
· they
will publish my content
·
add
ISBN number
·
gst
·
place
it in amazon and other portals
·
also
showcase my book in different book exhibition stalls
o
like
that finally my book got published with continuous affirmations saying
o “I should get this book published”
