One day, I happened to come across a free online course while I was actively interested in Instagram. I was impressed by the instructor's precise and friendly explanations, so I requested a meeting with him.
At the time, he didn't have much experience in lecturing, let alone manuscripts for publication. However, I saw this as an opportunity and suggested, "Let's plan a lecture and document its success stories in a book."
As a result, the author created a class called 'Secret Instagram Success in 30 Days' and successfully ran it for 10 sessions. The practical experience gained during the process is fully included in the book.
Currently, we are actively expanding our activities to include tools and online lectures, and the book we created together has been reprinted five times and even had its copyright exported to Thailand.

This happened when I was producing the book “Complete Notion in One Volume.”
In previous books, we used 100g imitation paper for the text, but this time, to reduce the budget, we changed the printing to 80g imitation paper.
However, after printing, I checked and found that on pages with many pictures, the dark images were visible on the back page.
The problem was caused by the paper being too thin.
In the end, I regretted it so much that I decided to revert back to making 100g fakes from the second edition.

Texture, thickness, color, and printability directly affect the quality of a book as well as the reader's reading experience.

To sustain a profitable business model, a solo publisher must develop a publishing strategy with a long-term perspective, rather than relying on short-term results.
Along with the steady release of new books, we must also focus on developing long-selling titles that will be loved for a long time. Furthermore, we need to diversify the format of books beyond paper books to include e-books and audiobooks.
Additionally, diversifying revenue streams, such as supplying textbooks to schools and institutions or linking with online lecture platforms to combine lectures and books, is also an important strategy.
