Please tell us about your marketing and strategy. I'm amazed awk can shift so many.
I'm also finding (with "Digital Vegan") that independent ebooks are much better cash creators than paper sales. Brexit is killing me - I can't sell paper outside the UK any more.
What is this down to? Export regulations? Could you use print on demand or something instead?
For example, many distributors won't take on business with publishers with less than 5 or 10 titles. Mine has 3, so is considered a "vanity press". Coordinating POD internationally is a PITA. So I use a smallish UK POD (Great British Bookshop) of my current project, and hold a few dozen myself mainly for mailing out to reviewers and press. Also, lots of distributors still operate on "store and forward", which means holding litho-printed stock (runs of 500+). I just can't be doing with that in 2022!
I also recorded an audio [1] version, which has had precisely zero sales AFAICT, mainly because I have no idea how to break that market.
Any podcasters here wanna give it a listen? shoot me a message, cheers.

Probably producing locally and then exporting is prohibitively expensive.
