How are your sales?

Thinking about how successful my books have been. My most popular books gets about 5 downloads a day.
What are yours like? Trying to get a seonse of which topics are most successful to steer my next book

My paid book is just a vanity project with low expectations and I don't mind sharing experiences. After the first few weeks, it's settled into an average of 5 sales per week.
What's interesting (to me anyway) is that price doesn't seem to matter much. It was originally priced at 2.99 and around the first of July I lowered the price to .99 thinking it would sell more, but it didn't, sales remained the same. In the middle of August, I rased it to 1.99 and again, sales are about the same. I'm thinking I may as well put it back to 2.99 and probably will do that soon.
Also, around the first of July I released a free book that contains a couple advertisments for my paid book. This book averages about 8 downloads per day but some days as much as 20 and for the first time ever today it was zero. I wish there was a way to know how many, if any, sales of the paid book come from the ad in the free book, but there just isn't. It's apparent that it doesn't help much, if at all.
It could be a demographic issue. At least half the downloads of the free book are from non-US stores but almost all the paid book downloads are from the US store.
More to come!

  • Multiple Leads per Account - how are your companies managing this?

    hi Experts
    Question regarding accounts with multiple leads.  How are other companies handling this in CRM?  Currenlty, we have a two lead types, one captures customer first point of interest with our company and the second type represents all of the other interests the customer has with us.  We are trying to simply to one lead type but Marketing is having an issue with how to manage the first point of contact and the point of contact which triggers the sale. 
    Basically, I would like to hear from other experts on how their companies model their leads and manage them.
    Thanks,
    Chris

    hi, you can add a customize flag field in your lead document to present the first contact. And you can make the sales staff to tick this flag, or add a customize logic in the order save BADI to check if the lead is the first document for this BP, it so the set the flag aotumactically in the BADI.

  • How are your app sales and download numbers?

    Does anyone want to share their app sales and download numbers? 
    Perhaps with knowledge of which apps are doing well and which are not doing so well we can all better understand how to present our apps on the marketplace.
    I'm yet to release a Windows 8 app, but I did have some success on Windows Phone 7 with a couple of hundred thousand downloads of free apps.

    The productivity category seems to suffer on Mondays
    Our downloads suffer on Wed and Thur.
    There do appear to be some intra week cycles going on.
    Quite frankly, we've made no progress on the understanding 85% drop in download cliff we've gone over.  I don't wish that on any app developer.  Especially in this environment of lots of questions and no answers :(

  • How Are Your Controllers Setup for BYOD/Guest and OEA

    I am in the process of building a new wireless network. The network will include BYOD/Guest and OEA for teleworkers using ICE and MobileIron for MDM. In the past I have setup an anchor controller for guest, but for this design I have a cost constraint that prevents me from adding the anchor controller. I know the Cisco SE’s push to include an anchor controller in the DMZ for this design, but I wanted an unbiased opinion from folks who may have a similar design and how your controllers are setup. For this design can I deploy a BYOD/Guest and OEA network without a DMZ controller?
    Thanks in advance.

  • Olympus E-1 users: How are your conversions?

    I just bought Aperture for use with my Olympus E-1 RAW files. The Aperture default conversions really aren't bad, but just aren't as "photo-like" as camera jpegs from the E-1. In particular, I think the Aperture defaults have a magenta color shift.
    Anyone else have an opinion? I would be willing to share files to demonstrate what I am talking about, but I don't think I can post them to this forum.

    With version 1.1 the conversions are better but still have a hi-tech moire pattern to them in places (especially when the image is sharpened). (kind of like faint circuit boards) Apparently they do not print but I can see them on the monitor.
    The early version of Aperture was so bad it was unusable. As for the colour shift have not noticed yet. The E1 is not quite compatable with Aperture unfortunately but hopefully will get better soon. The program offers a lot of other possibilites and advantages.
    The best conversion I think are still with Olympus Studio and of course you can shoot right into the computer with it. The Mac version of Studio is not Universal so it does not tether with any of the Intel MAcs yet. I have my MAc Book Pro set up as a dual boot and am using the Studio program with Windows XP for now.

  • How are your iPhones shipping?

    For those of you with preorders that have actually shipped (lucky you, by the way, and congratulations!), what does your reference number on the shipment look like? Some combo of your location and order number? Your order ref? Or just your order?  Shipping by FedEx or UPS? Wondering if I can try to discover my tracking number, if any, via the carrier.  Thanks!

    My order is being shipped via FedEx, my tacking number is 12 digits long, but my purchase order number is a combination of my location followed by an underscore followed by  4 zeros and my order number.
    Example:  W123456_000091xxx
    Hope that helps

  • How are Sprint iPhone speeds in San Diego?

    I heard about how many people experience very slow speeds on Sprint with the iPhone 4s. Is that a problem that affects most people in a given location, or is anything being done to fix it? How are your speeds with it, especially if you are in San Diego?
    I heard that in some places it's ok and others it's very slow, and I heard where it's slow on the iPhone, Android phones on Sprint are ok, and I know the iPhone is just as fast as Android phones on Verizon, so I'm confused about what the problem is. Still, I am interested in an iPhone and am trying to figure out the scope of the problem.

    Thanks slattum99. By any chance can you check speedtest.net's app to see what the speed is exactly? I'm guessing by "good" you mean around 1Mbps, but I ended up getting the iPhone with AT&T and that gets me around 4Mbps. Maybe by the time my contract is through Sprint's speeds will improve even more.

  • How is your intel IMac ?

    Hello all,
    I'm soon to be leaving the MS world - I work with them daily as a system tech/MCSE and I have seen for yeard how they act/patches, etc....
    I going to replace a 6 year old Gateway notebook which is runing ME and Linux. The notebook is really too SLOWWWW to run Linux, if not I would run Linux, and I can't do more upgrades.
    So ---- I initially wanted an IMac once the Macbook came out I started thinking MB. But ----- I reas about alot of MB problems - run hot, random power off, white notebooks turn yellow....and I don't want to gamble.
    How are your Intel IMac's ----- any problems - I'm not going to buy tomorrow, just want to get my options lined up. I may wait to see if the new Intel chips come on IMac.
    Please share your experiences.
    Thanks,

    I just purchased my iMac this past weekend so I haven't had a lot of time to mess around with it. But so far I think it's great. I have Office 2004 for Mac installed and Photoshop Elements 3 and while they are slower than on a G5, they don't seem slow. If I didn't know they were running through Rosetta, I would think the speed was just fine. The UB versions should really fly.
    All the normal apps that came with the iMac are fast - Mail, Safari, iLife '06, etc. I can add iWork '06 to the list as well. I thought my upgraded G4 was fast but I can tell a big difference. Everything is just faster on the new iMac.
    Regardless of whether you get a MacBook, MacBook Pro or iMac, you should get at least 1MB of RAM.

  • How to find reports which are using sales tables

    Hi Guys,
    we are using OBIEE 10g version.Here i need to identify the the reports which are using sales tables.
    Table names are given but how to find which report is using these tables.Is there any method to find
    or we have to check all reports manually?
    Could any one pls suggest me here!
    Regards,
    sk
    Edited by: 912736 on Jun 8, 2012 1:24 PM

    Hi SK,
    You can run a report from catalog manager that willl give you all answers requests and the subject area columns in use, you can map these back to the sales tables either manually or by linking (vlookup) to an RPD report that you can run from the Admin tool.
    The Usage Tracking method is pretty good but you will have to match up the reports using the Logical SQL.
    I'd do both methods and cross ref your results to ensure nothing slips the net.

  • How are you guys powering your laptops in your cars ???

    Hi guys,
      Although I have been using computers since the first pc appeared, I only recently decided to get a laptop.  I got a Lenovo B560 and have been absolutely delighted with it. 
     However, I am perplexed at the fact that there does not seem to be any easy options for using the laptop in the car on long trips etc ?  I do not see any type of 12 volt adapter listed in the accessories ??  A google search shows a few "generic" brand power converters but I have always been leary of using anything but oem type equipment.
     Anyway, how are you guys powering your machines while mobile ??
    Thanks,
    Bill

    Your tip size is 2.5mm x 5.5mm,  19volts, and your current adapter is 90watts, right?
    Your tip size is the same as what is in the y450, y460, y550p, y550, y560, and the y730.
    The y730 is listed under the adapter listed above as taking the 4R 4319 tip, which is the same size as yours.
    The tip, Pt. # 46 4319 is listed as an optional tip for the ultraslim adapter, Pt. #4IN8460, that tip has to be ordered separately from the adapter, it doesn't come with it.
    Scroll to the bottom of the link for the adapter and you'll see the listing for the 19 volt tip, pt. #4R 4319. 
    All this is assuming that you have integrated graphics.

  • Hello gentlemen how are you. All your base are belong to us ????

    My X server just shut down leaving me with a black screen full of messages, mostly relating to vlc.
    In the middle of all this was the above message.
    Do we have a developer with a sense of humour or is this something I should be worried about?
    I never run the system as root although I usually leave a root terminal open.
    Bizarre.

    This is ringing many, many bells with openbox.
    *scratches head*
    *greps openbox source*
    -> grep -r "your base are" *
    Binary file openbox/.libs/openbox matches
    openbox/mainloop.c: fprintf(stderr, "How are you gentlemen? All your base are"
    Binary file openbox/openbox_openbox-mainloop.o matches
    ->
    Hm, maybe someone decided to get all funny with their error messages like the OB devs did... or maybe it was the other way around.
    The most likely cause is that this message is a SIGSEGV (segmentation fault) trap - a message that is printed to std{out|err} when the app crashes, since OB prints the AYB when it's crashed too.
    You can actually segfault apps manually with `kill -SIGSEGV <PID>' or killall -SIGSEGV <processname>'

  • How to transfer sales bom from SAP R/3 to APO?

    Hi Experts,
    I just want to ask how to transfer sales bom from R/3 to APO? if i change my bom usage to 5 and use this BOM in my Production version be enough to send it to APO?
    Also, this is my first time using sales bom, could you please help me understand how sales bom work in APO planning?
    Thanks so much.
    Mylene

    Hi Senthil,
    Thanks again for your reply. I was trying to CIF sales BOM in APO but only the header material are being created in APO. The component are not added in PDS. This is how I create it in SAP R/3:
    1. transaction cs01 -->  enter header material, plant and BOM USAGE =5
    2. inside cs01, i entered components, quantity for each components and ITEM category = L (stock item)
                            i also eneterd base quantity for header material
    3. create production version for header material with routing and this BOM
    4. create and activate material CIF model for header and components
    5. create and activate PDS CIF model for header and components.
    After doing all these steps, PDS is created in APO but I only have the header material (no components)
    I tried changing BOM to other bom usage and components were populated in PDS.
    Am i missing nay steps?  Thanks.
    Regards,
    Mylene

  • How to exclude sales office for combination sales order type/division?

    Hi experts,
    I would appreciate if you could advise: How to exclude sales office for combination sales order type/division in ECC 6.0 ?

    Hi
    Standard SAP functionality would not be able to cater to this. Ideally create a Z table with sales order type and sales office combination. Put in entries for combinations that are allowed. In Sales order program MV45AFZZ use the exit USEREXIT_MOVE_FIELD_TO_VBAK. In this exit write down the logic passing the sales office determined and the order type and check if the entry is there or not. If the entry is there then it should go on to the next step. If it does not then pass an error message. You need to use the help of your ABAP er for this.
    Thanks
