I quickly learned that there is lots to learn about self publishing. In my case, I ordered and paid for my books had to quickly move them from a warehouse to a storage unit near my home - there were 70 boxes each weighing 41 pounds. This meant that I had to find someone to move them. I used College Muscle Movers and they had them moved within an hour.
I had to create a shipping station in my home. During August and September I have learned how to prepare books for shipping, use www.stamps.com to send, and keep records of sales.
