Got 114 Pre-Sales for my first eBook in 24 Hours
by Florin PopMy hope with this eBook was to help me sustain my family (me and my wife) while continuing to create YouTube videos and do Live Coding on Twitch. I really enjoyed doing them but I haven't reached yet the stage where I could do it "worry free" as the income from Ads, Subs and Donations weren't yet enough.
My monetary goal for the eBook were low (according to the people I've shared it with). I was thinking that if this eBook does $5k, I'll be happy! Everyone said it'll do way more. I didn't know what to believe.
Fast forward to 24 hours after I opened the Pre-Sales, I had 114 sales totaling $1140. That's more than 20% of what I expected, IN THE FIRST DAY! 😄
Sales update after 24 (roughly) hours:
- 2,068 views
- 114 sales
Sources (by sales):
- Twitter - 74
- Direct - 26
- Gumroad - 5
- Facebook - 5
- YouTube - 3
- Linkedin - 1
As expected, Twitter was the biggest source as I have the biggest audience there (53k).
I also wrote an email to my 1700+ newsletter subscribers and shared the link on Discord (2.2k), Facebook, YouTube and Linkedin and made a story on Instagram.
I also shared a few times the stats of the sales which eventually got some more 👀 and landed a few more sales.
Overall, I'm very happy of how this turned out! 💜
