Paid article 0 to 35 purchases. But, note doesn't sell just by publishing
Good evening🌙 I'm Ru-Nurse😊
“I'm so happy that so many people
have purchased my article😭”
When I opened note, this screen suddenly appeared.
“35 purchases”.
Until 5 months ago, I
had never sold a single paid article.
So,
the very first words that came out were these.
“Wait, really!?”
I'm happy. I'm surprised.
But at the same time, I thought of one more thing.
note doesn't sell just by publishing
note is
not a place where you can get sales just by writing.
No matter how much time you spend writing,
no matter how much confidence you have,
If it isn't found, it's the same as if it doesn't exist
—that can happen.
This is quite painful.
That's why the "35 purchases"
felt more like "it actually reached people"
rather than just "wow!"
.
Readers stop if they think it's "too difficult"
This is common on note.
The article exists, but it isn't read
I worked hard, but there's no response
I don't know what to fix
At times like this,
you tend to think, "Maybe my writing is just bad."
But the reason readers stop
is often something much simpler.
When readers
"Where should I start reading?"
"Which one is relevant to me?"
"What's coming up next?"
If they are left thinking these things, they stop right there.
Stop before reading the content.
Stop before thinking about whether to buy it.
Whether an article is found depends on how it is 'arranged'
Even if you publish many articles, if they are in a
place where they cannot be found, they will not be read.
Therefore, the same applies to paid articles.
Even if you worked hard to write it, if it isn't found, it won't be read. If it isn't read, it won't be bought.
Here, your initial assumption changes.
'If I write it, the people who need it will find it'
instead of
'If I don't put it in an easy-to-find format, it won't be found'.
The larger this gap is, the more likely it is that serious people will feel overwhelmed.
So, what should you start with?
I would like to say 'Just do this and you'll be fine!', but I won't.
Because the biggest problem is
not knowing where you are currently stuck.
"What should I fix?"
"What should I do first?"
If you can't see these things,
you will get lost again.
I have placed an entrance in the pinned article
That is why I placed
an entrance to find 'where you are right now' in the pinned article.
If you are currently,
working hard but not feeling any progress
not knowing what to fix
feeling more anxious the more you post
If you have even a little bit of these feelings,
perhaps what you need next is not to work harder, but
to know where you are right now.
