Training #538 – Publishing Economics: The True Cost of Self-Publishing in 2024

Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Share on Pinterest

In this live training session, Erin focuses on budgeting for independent authors, including an in-depth discussion on the various costs associated with writing, publishing, and marketing your books.

While you can publish a book for free these days (assuming of course that you don't value your time…), it can be better to go into the process with an idea of what it will cost for purchasing tools or hiring services for the various aspects that go into publishing.

Topics covered include illustration costs, idea generation tools, market research software, writing and editing expenses, cover design, interior formatting, distribution avenues, direct sales, audiobook production, and promotional strategies. We also answer questions about managing different genres, ISBNs, and the importance of self-editing, and addresses common queries about platforms like Pinterest and Amazon.
