My name is Michelle Kulp and since 2013 I have helped over 500 clients write, publish and launch books to the Amazon Bestsellers list in my done-for-you programs (which range from $10K to $35K).
I've had many clients (including myself) who hit Wall Street Joural and USA Today bestsellers lists with their books.
While I love bestsellers lists, it has always been my dream to be a full time writer with enough passive income to pay my bills, retire early and have true TIME FREEDOM.
LET ME TELL YOU A STORY...
Between 2013 and 2019, while helping my done-for-you clients, I randomly published a few books of my own without any plan or system.
Needless to say, I never made any real passive income from my books.
As fate would have it, in December of 2019, I had come across an article on Written Word Media Blog that said the average author who make 6 figures has 28 books in their catalogue
That's when the crazy thought popped into my head:
"I am going to write a book a month for a year and see how much passive income I can create!"
Since I LOVE writing and it was my dream to make full-time passive income from my writing, I went ALL IN on my ambitious and kinda crazy idea.
It was really just a private "experiment" I was doing, HOWEVER, as I started to tell more and more people, they became very interested in my results and started asking me how things were going.
After 12 months writing just 12 books, I exceeded my social security income!
I was truly shocked at the results of taking knowledge I already had, and turning that into a series of short books.
That is where the B.A.M. Method came into play.
Writing one book a month was the key to MAKING PASSIVE INCOME on Amazon!
My goal was to create a passive stream of income that would free up more of my time, while creating high-quality short books that help other people (not the type of books that are fluff and contain no substance.)
And that’s how I created the blueprint! It's the blueprint I use to this day.
Not only to write one book a month and earn passive income with it…
...but to write Bestselling books that become "Business Assets" designed to bring you consistent passive income and more freedom!
Now I have to tell you...
Not every book I wrote was a huge success.
In fact, when I looked at the $3,335 a month in passive income, I realized 80% of my income was coming from 20% of my books!
It's the infamous 80/20 rule!
Unfortunately, you can't predict which books will take off. So you simply write the best high-quality book you can and let the market decide what they like.
My top 3 selling books making 80% of my income (and still bestsellers to this day) were:
1) How to Find Your Passion
2) 28 Books to $100K
3) Digital Retirement
And even though 80% of my income came from these 3 books, that 20% still added up.
The great thing about writing in a SERIES, is that you gain loyal followers and you start to dominate bestseller lists.
Then, people start recognizing your name and you become the go to expert on that topic!
All it takes is just ONE book to get started...
That's what I did and it changed my life!
One Bestselling book is the first step to creating multiple streams of passive income, and even creating an action plan if you don’t have any retirement income.
Writing books will give you CONFIDENCE like you've never had before.
And why not write books using your own life experience and knowledge while also leaving a legacy.
All of that is possible when you write books using my proven success blueprint inside Digital Retirement Academy.
And now, I'm sharing my proven BLUEPRINT with you...
Discover the exact steps I took to replace my social security income by writing one short book a month (B.A.M.). Learn from my success and avoid common pitfalls in book writing that lead to failure.

Who Digital Retirement Academy Is For:
You are a entrepreneur, business owner, professional, speaker, trainer, consultant, CEO, solo-preneur, etc. and have knowledge that can help others.
You have unique life experiences that you want to share with others to have more impact and income.
You want to become a #1 bestselling author and create multiple streams of passive income learning from someone who has done it themselves.
You tired of making your boss rich and want to create your own Business Assets that will make you money every day and every month.
You know you have to invest in yourself if you want to change your circumstances and you are ready to make that investment.
You are excited to learn a new and valuable skillset that will help you create your own Digital Retirement!
Who Digital Retirement Academy Is NOT For:
You are looking for a "get rich overnight" program... (Nothing happens overnight; it takes time and committment).
You aren't ready to put in the work. (You have to apply the training to get the results).
You have too much going on in your life and can't add one more thing to your plate (that's okay, there are different seasons and sometimes it's not the right time).
You've tried other things and you know this probably wont' work for you (trying other ways to make money is great, it means you've found other things that don't work for you, but it doesn't mean this won't. You won't know unless you try).
You can't afford the investement (if we really want something we can usually find a way to make it happen, don't let this be an excuse to changing your life; get creative).
You have already published a book or books and haven't made any money (that's because you didn't write, publish and launch your book the right way. You actually know the wrong way to publish and now you can learn the high profit way).
If in 30 days you have gone through the respective modules... attended at least 4 implementation/coaching calls - and feel I haven't given you the blueprint to write, publish, AND launch your book - I will work with you until you get a Bestselling book.
But none of the students in DRA have used this Guarantee... because when they implement the "BAM" method and attend the LIVE calls during the 8 weeks, they have clarity about what they need to do so they can finally become Bestselling authors and start making passive income from it.
