Unfortunately, refunds happen sometimes. It’s just part of the business, so it’s not a problem.

I set up a test account and added a balance of 1 million credits to it. This allows me to test the updates more easily. I have added features such as image uploading, the user credit panel, and the points system. The section I marked as number 1 was the photos area.

I am trying to upload 10 products every day. The website is not fully completed yet, but the product upload system is currently working, and I am adding new products every day. There are currently 13 products on the site, and this number will continue to increase.

I believe the website will be fully completed within about 20 days, although I am not completely certain yet. You can ask me any questions about it.

I will have completed the SaaS website by next Sunday at the latest. Since I have absolutely no coding knowledge, I found the process quite challenging, but I have now completed all the difficult parts.

I decided to connect the website directly to Digistore24, and that is how I will operate it. With ChatGPT’s help, I created a WordPress plugin, an admin dashboard, membership tiers, and many other features. There are currently 202 products uploaded to the website.

The membership tiers are:

  1. Free
  2. Paid Tier 1: $19.99/month
  3. Paid Tier 2: $39.99/month
  4. Paid Tier 3: $79.99/month
  5. Paid Tier 4: $199.99/month
  6. Paid Tier 5: $499.99 lifetime access

This project is starting to excite me now. I genuinely believe it has the potential to reach a very good level. Let’s see where this journey takes us.

While developing the plugin with ChatGPT, the website crashed five times—but I managed to fix it each time. The screenshot shows part of the plugin.

(I haven't detailed the membership levels yet. Each membership level will have different advantages)
 
Looks like you got everything figured out. What are the new SaaS ideas?
Thank you very much. Yesterday, I walked around some of Istanbul’s wealthy neighborhoods. One of my SaaS projects will be related to yachts, while another will be something like a KDP or prompt marketplace. They will all operate on a monthly subscription model.

Okay, it sounds good to me. I'm looking forward to your next updates. Good luck!
 
Today, the most detailed update so far will be released.

Unfortunately, I'll publish it tomorrow morning because it's going to be a rather long article.
 
That "Tomorrow" will never come I think ;)
Thank you for your support. The update will be delayed a little because of some health issues and hospital visits, but I’ll release an update soon. They increased my medication dosage, and I experienced a few problems because of that. However, I’ve finished the website, including the monthly subscription system

so sorry to heat that! Get well soon
 
I have just read through the whole thread and saw you mention AI sometimes. Do you use AI for writing in English or are you really writing a book with 80-90 pages per day on your own?
 
I think that'a prretty interesting story which is also motivating me. I am following you on this journey. Also I would like to know how you are making good money from amazon
 
Tomorrow morning, (Türkiye / Turkey time), I will publish a detailed update and answer all the questions.

First, I’ll explain in detail what has been going on in my life and why this update was delayed. Then I’ll talk about my income and try to make these updates more regular from now on.

During this time, a lot of people reached out to ask about my health, especially through private messages. I want to thank all of you. Since my last update here, I’ve had two more epileptic seizures and had to deal with hospital appointments and other related things. My medication dosage was increased, but thankfully, everything has been going well lately.

From now on, I’m planning to make this journey much more organized and consistent. I believe I can succeed because I can be a very obsessive and determined person when I focus on something in my life.

Now I’ll talk about what I’ve been doing in terms of work and the major changes I’ve made.

For Amazon KDP, I personally developed some AI-powered tools with the help of AI. I created some typesetting tools and combined them with AI to prepare my books. At this point, producing a book takes around 30 minutes to 1 hour. I’ve completed this system, and for December, I’m planning to create fun books with a much higher page count. I’ve also created many prompts that improve the quality of the books. From now on, my books will generally be around 400–500 pages long.

The second important thing is that my SaaS website is almost finished. I’m going to start promoting it through email marketing on Sunday. There are only a few small details left to complete. I’ll use a dual business model with both monthly subscriptions and direct sales. I’ve integrated Stripe as the payment processor and set up a Wise business bank account. The money from each sale should reach my bank account about five days after the transaction. I set all of this up through my UK company.

I’ve also built various automated bots inside my SaaS website that will automatically create products using AI. My goal is to integrate an open-source AI model into the website and eventually build a system that can create products on its own. However, I’m still continuing to upload products manually as well. So far, I’ve uploaded 460 products to the website.

My sales on TPT have also increased now that schools have reopened in the United States, and I’ve managed to earn a somewhat better income there as well.

That’s the general overview and the main details of what I’ve been working on.

I’ve also included a few screenshots. (amazon kdp, tpt, saas)

Thank you very much. I've explained it in detail in my book, but I'm also giving general information on this topic here.
