How do you promote these books? How do you find buyers?

People doubted me but my newsletter has reached 60 subscribers in my first month! in c/sideproject@indiehackers.space

Yes, the numbers are legit AFAIK. I usually refer to blog posts by the makers of a product or interviews of the makers to get the values.

Biweekly is something I have considered, but it feels like too much work for now. Maybe I'll add/remove some sections to have two different styles of the newsletter, twice every week. But that's in the future.

Thanks anyway. Just celebrating a small start. I probably need to add a disclaimer: "I know 60 is a small number but it still makes me happy."

A month back I posted about my newsletter in various subreddits (got banned for self promotion from some), and got mixed responses for my claims.

I claimed to provide verified business ideas, real success stories and quality articles every week for free.

Some people called me out as a scammer.

Others were gentler and subscribed just by trusting my words (grateful to those first subscribers).

Well, 5 editions later, here we are. I work hard over the entire week, curate the best content, add a personal lesson and I do it for free.

I don't use any paid ads and rely only on organic growth.

The only thing I want to say to my fellow beginners is don't listen to haters and just get started.
