Glad it was helpful!
Thank you so much, love these insights!
You are so welcome!
Thanks Renee 📚 just found your channel and a new subscriber now!
Awesome! Thank you!
I'm glad you post sean dolwett. He is super great on kdp low and medium content book. I also follow book launchers, mandi lynn, and m k williams. And of course now you. And i think one or two others i cant remember. I have a non fiction book I'm working on.... formatting and indexing now. But i have several CAD programs and corel draw pro and one specialized for just mandala. I want to do coloring books and other activity books simialr to highlights but for adults. But kids books are good too. And a variety of contnet in one book is good too.
This is an excellent channel. Thanks for your content.
Thank you so much for your words! I know I still have a lot to learn, but I’m having fun on the journey. Let me know how your journey goes also!
I truly enjoyed your awesome amazing interesting informative video. Thank you very much.
So nice of you!
That's awesome and meaty.
Thanks!
Great video! I'm happy to see more and more people promoting KDP. It's literally the most beginner friendly business you can run from your computer. It's the business that has allowed me to live a life of financial freedom and help others do the same. Thanks for the video Renee :)
Couldn't agree more!
Hi Barry.. I learn alot from your videos as well.. Keep up the great work..
@@daniabinns3634 I appreciate that. I'm glad I was able to provide enough value to help you out :)
I just started my KDP not even two weeks ago so I'm really new at this, but I'm not giving up until I figure this out. Your video has been the most honest, refreshing, inspiring video I've watched.....And trust me, the last few weeks I'VE WATCHED A LOT! LOL. I'm so excited about this and I can't wait to follow your story and thank you so so so much for making this channel and doing these videos, because I think for a lot of us, we really don't know who's legitimate in these videos or if they're just trying to make money doing affiliate marketing. I really appreciate you allowing us to watch your story and letting us know what has worked and what hasn't. I had no idea until tonight that there was something called Book Bolt! I can't believe how much time I've spent in Canva lol. Thank you and God bless!!
Thank you! That means so much to me - please keep me updated on how it goes!
Keep up the good work. I too have just stated at KDP. My name is Scott Holsey. Keep making content. Wish you all the success
Thanks, you too! Let me know how your KDP adventure goes
I have to admit i did create a journal...im working on a couple of more involved projects now, but i will say that I do use the journal to encourage people to write down ideas so they can make them a reality. The maze looks cool.
I forgot to say I wish you the best with your books
Thank you - you too!!
Great, professional content! Thank you!😊
Thank you so much!
Thanks mam. I started publishing now. I have book bolt and canva. I am still in learning process. From South Africa
Good luck on your journey!
Thanks for your insight! Much appreciated. I started KDP again in March. Right now, I have a coloring book but I am going to promote a little differently. I am planning to color my designs and grow a little following that way. I have had a blast doing some online classes, learning what colors work and how to use alcohol markers. Hopefully, it all goes well. Best wishes to you!❤❤❤
Let me know how your journey goes! I’m still learning so much every time I upload!
I hope you don't think this is odd - but I see you're from Roatan! I lived in La Ceiba for a year, and we visited Roatan when we could. Living in Honduras was an amazing experience.
@@reneefclancy Thanks 😊 ! Will do.
@@reneefclancy Oh how cool! Yes, I was born on the island and still live here. It’s changed a lot, not always for the best, but it is home. 😂😂
the video was very good and you have a new subscriber👍
Thank you so much!
Very informative videos mam ❤😊
So nice of you!
Hi. First of all, thanks for the video. I have a question regarding the reviews. If you give tour friends the copys, can they write a review? Dont they need to buy it from amazon to review it?
This was brought up in the community member forum on KDP too. The authors there said it will just not have the 'verified purchase' next to your review. Hope that helps!
Great advice, thank you! Wondering though, if you give a book to someone to review, how are they able to leave a review on Amazon if they didn't buy it through Amazon?
When you scroll to the bottom of the page, there is a space to leave a review. It just will not say 'Verified Purchase' next to the review.
@@reneefclancy Good to know, thank you!
with the gifted author copies, can they write a review without actually purchasing your book? thank you for the info
Great question! According to the published authors in the KDP member area, they said yes, someone gifted a copy can leave a review, they just cannot be noted as a 'verified purchase'.
Hello, i have two books on kdp and one is a medium content (travel journal). There are almost two months but nothing yet. What can I do to have at least a few sellings?
Hi! From my research, a great strategy is to purchase some author copies, and then gift the copies to people and ask if they would be willing to write a review on Amazon. I just received my copies, and I'll be passing them out this week! I plan to add a QR code to the inside of the books so people can submit reviews easily. If this doesn't work to move my books to the top of the list, then I may try some ads - we'll see!
I have been very encouraged. Thank you so much. Since my book on Amazon was just published, i have no sales yet. I have gifted books out but never knew i could have them review my book on Amazon. Their rule is that anyone can review without purchasing a book as long as they are at least a $50 customer within the past year. My problem is i can't see a pop-up that says "Write A Review". Can you help me?
Great question! I’ll look into it ASAP.
I found it! You have to scroll to the bottom, but there is a spot that says "Review this product" then "Leave a customer review". Hope that helps!
Problem solved. Thank you for your posting.
I'm a fiction author but I also write some non-fiction and I dabbled at low and medium content books. When I started putting the low and medium content books in my library under a different author name, Amazon tried to pigeon hole all of my books into low and medium content. Is this a normal issue with them? Thanks
That’s a really great question! I think you should ask that in the member forms and let me know what they say. There are a lot of different types of writers and authors in those forums, might be a great place for you to get your answers
Everyone keeps talking about research though before creating books to upload and sell. Does research really matter as much as they say??
I definitely think so. For example, I made a couple of mandala coloring books before I did some research about them. I learned after looking at the data that there are so many of these, it is now best to be more focused on a specific theme, such as mandala animals, or mandala circles, etc. And, I never would have though to make a cocktail recipe book, but when I saw the data that there were not many being made, but lots of people purchasing them, I went ahead and made a few. Hope that helps!
I wrote and self-published a book in 2012 which was a 10 year account of my e-commerce journey. 230 pages, 70 images, 66k words. Apart from faffing about selecting a title and domain name I didn't do any research. Wrote from the heart and put my direct email in the book. I lost count in 2015 at 25k copies sold at average £3.50 profit per book over both formats. It sells only a few copies a month now being 12 years old. Reviews topped 200 in both US and UK. Obviously non-fiction but no research apart from using my gut.
@@jasoncooke6336 That is amazing! I know that's a huge accomplishment - congrats!
Of course it is, to minimize negative reviews
Sadly, I've got two novels in process ... that's not low or medium content And I really want to publish stories, not the cool kind of thing you're doing. Sounds like you're headed in the right direction for your products.
That’s a huge accomplishment! Congratulations! Keep promoting it!
Where can I see the hundreds of books Sean Dollwet reportedly published on KDP? I cannot find it.
Sorry - can't help you there. I do appreciate his advice though
Be carfull about review from the familly, that is forbitten in guidelines.
Definitely agree you need to be careful with this one - but the numbers are so small, I'll risk it. And it makes me so happy that my family supports all my crazy adventures! Thanks!
Can you help me with marketing my book??
There are lots of ways to market a book… start posting on social media about it, join forums, give free copies. You could have a book signing event at your local coffee shop! It’s okay if only your family and friends show up. It’s a lot of fun and is another opportunity to promote on social. Good luck!
Where does one find the member forums?
In KDP, select the Community tab
@@reneefclancy ty!
When you order samples, Amazon is putting “not for resale” on the cover, so that doesn’t quite work.. at least that is what they did to mine…
Thats different. You have samples before publishing and author copies, author copies are after you publish book and you order them after you checked proof book.
That does seem odd - my author copies I ordered do not have that on them
Only the sample books have the “not for resale” on the cover. Author copies are not sample copies 😊
I saw you have a image behind, but the paper is licks to the back…
I'm not quite sure what you mean
unfortunately my success doesn't long in kdp one blocked book ruin the whole kdp career my kdp account terminate and no royalties I am not happy and depressed with kdp amazon 😢
I'm so sorry that was your experience with KDP!
@@reneefclancy thanks for your's considering
@@girlCEO388what happened?
@@vonauxmelody1 my kdp amazon account terminated and I am not able to earn from this.I am really dishearted from amazon kdp policies
Don't waste your time on low content books. Nobody is paying for those. MAYBE medium...but KDP is not the platform for making you money.
Exactly - that's why I talk about doing medium content books only. I agree, even though I've made low content books previously, the market has shifted, and medium is where it's at!
oh please...
I'm happy to answer any questions for you if you have one?
