Ever dream of quitting your job to “just sell a few books online”? This chart makes that fantasy look surprisingly doable. It breaks down exactly how many $14.99 books per day it takes to hit six figures. Spoiler: 50 books a day can net you around $191K a year.

Why this chart hits hard

  • It visualizes revenue goals clearly
  • It reframes “big money” into small, reachable daily targets
  • It shows exponential motivation: just 5 more books/day = $20K+ more
  • It uses specific numbers—no motivational fluff

Real-world examples
