Remember this …
Consider this your reminder that success is not defined by being #1 on Amazon or selling thousands of copies in a 24-hour period. You don't need to chase those big numbers to be a bestseller in your niche. In fact, selling between 15 to 50 copies can be more than enough!
Take Alice’s Story: She poured her heart and soul into a nonfiction book. She was passionate about her niche and believed in the power of her message. But when their book didn't skyrocket to the top of the charts, she felt like a failure.
But here's the revelation: She wasn't a failure. She just had the wrong definition of success. She realized that being a bestseller in her niche meant making a meaningful impact on her readers, even if it meant selling fewer copies.
Boom! ⚡⚡⚡ Your life just changed. Success is not about the numbers, it's about the lives you touch and the difference you make. Selling only 15-50 copies can still make you a bestseller in your niche if you deeply connect with your audience and provide value.
So, can I be real a second? Don't get caught up in the pressure of being #1 on Amazon (or on any of those other fancy bestseller lists). Consider this your reminder that success is about changing lives, making a difference, and being the best version of yourself as an author and entrepreneur.
