Hi guys, I do all the usual. I have a landing page. A niche specific freebie (25 min audio). Mailerlite automation. Meta Ads. QR codes. But still people are not signing up. Or very, very few. Sure, I dont have hundred of book sales and a super dooper awesome trusted brand but surely SOME people should sign up. i have no idea what I m doing wrong. How do you guys build your list in a decent manner? I m not talking hundreds of signups but a dozen a week should be doable no?

It's time to share your experience and ideas, no matter what stage of your publishing journey you are at. The attached images outline nine phases of book creation. What do you think about the outline? Is anything major missing? Should anything be done differently? Please share your thoughts; it is very important.

The Premium members' group is growing rapidly, and it seems necessary to arrange a weekly event to keep everyone up to speed. Fridays at 15:00 UTC seem the best option to include Europe, the U.S., and Asia. It will be: 7:00 (PST) in Los Angeles 8:00 (MST) in Denver 10:00 (EST) in New York 16:00 (CET) in Berlin 23:00 in Singapore 🗓 The first call will be held the day after tomorrow. Please add it to your calendars. If you want to and can participate, it will be a pleasure to chat. Anyway, the first parts of the calls will be recorded and clipped to YouTube as educational materials for the Guided Publishing System. After the formal part of the calls, including presentations of Guided Publishing System functions, the recording will be turned off, and we can discuss any interesting questions off-record. The calls for the Premium tier will be held every week till the end of March 2026.

Let's take a first taste of the Guided Publishing System. Please read how the system works: https://www.skool.com/guild/classroom/b3937406. It will take about 3 minutes of your time (on every page, you will see the approximate reading time). On weekends, you completed the Publisher Persona interview and saved the results in a file. This is one of the most important files you will provide to the system to produce results that suit you best. Niche Finder will apply your Publisher Persona to the actual data for hundreds of self-published books, published in the last 18 months, with a BSR below 30,000 and fewer than 25 reviews. After you get the first results, you can continue researching, referencing the Sales History provided in the prompt. As soon as you find an interesting niche, you can validate it with the KIP Scout extension: https://www.skool.com/guild/classroom/a909acca?md=3a8050165a21498aa786392aa7704616 Please share your first impressions in the comments. The Guided Publishing System is not set in stone; it's a flexible, constantly updated tool, so your feedback can help fellow publishers.

I want to share another useful (I think so) extension - "rename tabs". Why? Because as a publisher you often have many tabs open. Often these tabs are linked to different to do s. Particularly if you use ChatGPT or Gemini a lot. They are all just called ChatGPT or Gemini but if you can rename them you can name them after the task that the tab is concerned with. Its great for organization. Do you have some?
