How much do you think a children’s author makes from each book they sell? Take the poll that pops up in the video – It’s anonymous – I won’t know who you are or what you think, but it will be very helpful to know what you think. Please ask friends, relatives and colleagues to join in and have a go too. Let’s make this viral!
Imagine that the book says £5.00 on the back – it could be $5 or €5.00
£5.00 = 100% – From that 100% do you think the author gets:
- 25% = £1.25
- 10% =0.50p
- 7.5% = 0.37p
- 4% = 0.20p
- 1% =0.05p
I’ll let you know results in a new video quite soon. Make sure you are subscribed to get the results!
i’d guess 1% but hope it,s more
I have been a fan for a few years I hope to get a mailed autograph one day!
You’ll have to wait for the answer video! Stay Tuned! lol
I think you might find something is in the post today! lol
Hi Shoo, I’m guessing 7.5% which is nowhere near enough for all your hard work and ideas.
I have been watching your Youtube videos for more years than I can remember and love them!
Best wishes,
Keith
Thanks for the kind words – You’ll have to wait for the next video! 🙂
I wish it were 25%, I know you are worth it. But I’m sure it’s much less. You know what they say, “Artist are a dime a dozen”, wow, That’s an old saying! Love Ya
Goodness, I’ve never heard that said! I think the problem is that artists generally would happily work for free and so undervalue themselves and what they do. In the great scheme of things, what really does a merchant banker do to improve the world, and do they really deserve the salaries they get?
7.5% should be 50% though ?
I agree! but the financial realities say something quite different. 🙂
