> It feels like a bit of a gamble to write a series of books and throw a huge marketing budget at them. How much money would they even have had to spend on marketing the books, given they would have their own web portal? > I dunno, does this make it sound like the scam / system described in the submission is worth a punt? Maybe not if you're trying to make a successful business. But if you're trying to do the bare minimum to quickly score about 80k usd while still protecting yourself from fraud/felony charges, wouldn't this be good news? It sounds like you could easily find an author who'd be happy with 10k or even 15k per year.
