Self-Publishing Success Stories

Amber is now a self-publisher, author, and one of the first members of PA during its BETA stage. She has been here with AIA since late 2020. That means she has been here for 3 years and she is what we like to call a vet in this program. She is a licensed massage therapist AND an exotic dancer who found publishing as a way to get out of her career as a dancer and into something more long term and permanent. She built her own FB group and it has grown to over 5K people in just a year. In this interview we talk extensively about how she created her cover, outline, all the hurdles she dealt with, and doing deep customer research.

A busy mom and business owner finished the program in a couple weeks and then got to creating books and within 6 months of being in the program she reached the 10k per month mark.

Koorosh is a retired professor who embodies the "growth mindset" and shares about how he learned to do everything to make his book work. He went into all the different resources offered in the program, and how they each benefitted him. His first book has doubled every single month since he published, and at the time of this recording he was making over $1100/month from that one book. He even learned how to create a website, build lead magnets, take photos for his books, and even design and format his books so that he had total control over the process. Koorosh shared about how he looks at challenges and how he approach things so that he keeps moving forward and not looking back. He's just finished publishing his second book and the third one is on the way!
