Being Hospitable by Meka James5/20/2023 I watched several YouTube videos to learn how to set up an automated welcome sequence, and I had a heck of a time figuring out landing pages and how to connect my Mailerlite account with my Bookfunnel account. Now I love it, even though I still don’t know half of what it can do. Like most software, I didn’t like it right away because I didn’t know how to use it. Back in 2016 we didn’t have Vellum for formatting, and I didn’t start using Canva for book covers and graphics until about 2018 when my friend Aila turned me on to it. One of the things I didn’t realize when I started publishing was all that I was going to have to learn. But you have to put some money into your books or you’ll never get to a place where you can sell them.Įducation. Then on top of that you have ads and promos, an email aggregator for your newsletter. Subscription services like Office 365, Canva, WordPress, and Bookfunnel, just to name a few, eat up a lot of my business money. ISBNs are not cheap in the US, book covers can be expensive, too. You have to decide where that money goes and prioritize that spending. When you’re an indie author, there are a lot of places your money can go. When it comes to being an author running a book business, there are a lot of different ways to shove resources at your books. To different people that can mean different things. We all hear that we need to invest in our business.
