u/Beneficial-Specific

Estou em um comitê avaliando propostas de 3 empresas para a eletrificação das garagens de meu condomínio na cidade de São Paulo. As 3 empresas que apresentaram propostas são:

• GreenV
• BeGreen
• Power2Go

As propostas são bastante equivalentes em termos dos serviços: avaliação técnica, implementação de infraestrutura seca e "última milha", fornecimento dos wall boxes, software e serviços de gerenciamento e balanceamento de carga para cada wall box. O que as difere, nas propostas, é basicamente o preço.

Alguém tem experiências (positivas e negativas) que possa compartilhar sobre os serviços prestados por essas empresas? Alguma delas é do tipo "foge que é fria"?

Hi.

I am finishing the review of my first novel (hard sci-fi), and I don’t know the first thing about self publishing. Well, that’s not exactly true. I know I should purchase an ISBN (which is better and less limiting than the Amazon number), I know publishing on Amazon is easy, but they keep a sizable cut, I know I will need to do all the marketing for my book, I know I have zero budget to available. That’s it. So, here are some questions:

1. Is Amazon the best way to go? Are there better alternatives? Which? Why
2. What is the best strategy to market a self-published book?
3. How do ARCs work? How can I get my book at the hands of advanced readers that can help spread the word? Are there downsides for ARCs?
4. What is a reasonable price point? (No, I don’t know even that, sorry)
5. Would it be feasible/preferable to find a publisher? What do I need if I want to try that route?

Any help will be highly appreciated.
